[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] An excellent hard drive. Fast data transfer speeds for both downloading and uploading, a stylish design, and a compact size. It is convenient to carry around and doesn’t take up much space.

Compact, Lightweight, and Secure option for backup

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Thank you, Influenster, for this product as it came just in time from my trip to France! My photo library and old files have taken up a lot of space on my iCloud and Google drives. I like that this another option for me to transfer files and is more secure in my opinion. The lightweight size makes it portable and I’m going to use this for my iPad for procreate files .

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This Lexar portable SSD storage works very well. The processing time of transferring files is super fast. The actual product is very lightweight and compact which I love. It has a super sleek look and is perfectly compatible with my PC. The build feels very high-quality and although I have not dropped it, lol, I do think that it would handle the 2 m drop resistance the claims.

This high speed drive surpassed my expectations
on April 10, 2026

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was really impressed by the consistent speed of the drive and very happy with the size of the device itself. The only improvement I would make to this device is to improve the outer coating. The feel on the hands was cheaper than the actual quality of the device. Having the main port be USB-C makes sense for the modern consumer in my opinion.

The storage

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a really great thing to invest in if you are needing the extra space for your phone your computer. It’s comparable with phones, computers, pc’s, and I do believe tablets. The design is very classic black outer design. Really easy to use and it does not get hot.

Small Size, Blazing Fast Speed
on April 13, 2026

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It's incredible how small and fast these drives are compared to even just a few years ago. This has the foot print of a credit card, is about as thick as a pencil, and I transferred over 1.5 GB of video files from my phone in under 10 seconds. That's ridiculous.
This is a perfect way to backup your photos and videos from your phone with minimal hassle. It can back up your phone in seconds and free up space, yet is small enough to easily toss in a pocket or purse. Great for on the go content creation. The included cable is USB-C to USB-C with a USB-A adapter if you need to plug it in your PC. On my PC, it took about 30 seconds to transfer 1 GB, which is still fast-- but I think the speed is limited by my PC as transferring files via USB-C to my phone is about 10 times faster.
Overall, I'm impressed. Small, well made (feels like an anodized aluminum case), clever/convenient cable, and file speeds that far exceed my expectations. Easy 5 stars!
