Highlights
Quality
The drive is also very reliable and durable, it is built with high-quality components and it is resistant to shock and vibration.
The kingston xs2000 1tb ssd drive is an excellent product and i would give it five stars.
While it could be my usb port, with the all the reviews of poor speed im leaning more towards a janky a to c dongle.
In the 800-900mbps to start which seemed nice, but it teeter tottered back and forth between that and the 200-400 range.
Price
I never buy drives this small anymore other than for deliverables, and budgetary reasons.
