Outdated USB 3.0 hardware

This is an SSD that is capable of SSD speeds but it is throttled by an outdated USB hardware (USB 3.0). You need a minimum of Gen 2 USB 3.1 to take advantage of the speeds that SSDs are capable of.
Only two stars because you still do get the durability of a SSD but why cheap out on speed though? Speed is standard and expected with SSDs. This product is marketed to those who overlook the details. Overall it is just shady and the product should not exist. You wouldn't put wood tires on a 2020 car right?
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
