Emtec X200 Power Plus 1TB mSATA Portable Solid State Drive (SSD) - ECSSD1TX200

I presently use this little guy as a dual boot of Windows2GO and Arch Linux and it is fantastic for the task! Dont expect high end gaming off this, but for a portable system for daily tasks, web browsing, documents, music, this thing works great (provided the host is also decent). Large file transfers do slow down the drive, which can lock up the OS until its complete, so take that into consideration. For the price though, this does an excellent job.

Very light weight ans so helpful

I got this for my young adult son who games and he loves it. Its solid state so it is very light compared to my own external hard drive.

Je nai pas testé les performances de ce SSD, mais je lai renvoyé immédiatement sans lavoir même utilisé car je cherchais un SSD solide et adapté aux voyages. Hors cet appareil ma semblé aussitôt déballé tellement cheap et fragile, entièrement plastique bon marché que jai préféré opter pour la facilité PRIME AMAZON et me faire rembourser. Je sais bien quavec le choix AMAZON PRIME je nai jamais aucune difficulté si je me trombe lors de mon achat. Merci Amazon !

Ce SSD externe est super efficace pour emmener nos données en sécurité sur un autre pc

Diese SSD hängt an meinem LG OLED55E97LA für Programmaufzeichung und Time-Shift. Zur ersten Verwendung musste diese Platte vom TV formatiert werden, wurde aber sofort erkannt, und hat auch noch keine Probleme bereitet. Geräusche gibt es nich, und bei Aktivität der Platte gibt es einen Indikator, der aber auch nicht zu hell ist, dass er stören könnte. Ich kann die SSD nur empfehlen.

Have had no problem with this drive.

Anwendung hier: Ersetzt meine nach 9 Jahren kaputt gegangene Buffalo HDD am USB-Port (Recording) eines Panasonic TV. Die SSD wird unglaublich schnell vom TV erkannt und formatiert, ein echter Fortschritt. Klein, unauffällig und absolut lautlos, nie wieder HDD!

While the SSD space is dominated by big players like Samsung, Western Digital (via SanDisk acquisition) and Kingston, one really needs to look closely if seeking out other lesser known players who provide a good value for money. Emtec - a company that has better brand recognition in Europe - shines out. Pros: - Full 512GB (not 480GB or 500GB) - USB-C interface - makes it useful for both Mac and Windows machines. - Really compact in size (see pictures) - Uses SanDisk 3D Nand Flash (yes, I couldnt help myself opening the unit!) - Uses Silicon Motions SM2258XT - a reputed and leading brand in NAND flash controllers for SSD - used by the likes of Crucial and other well known OEMs. - Uses JMicrons (another well known Taiwanese silicon company) USB 3.1gen1 to SATA 6Gb/s Bridge - Better than average transfer rates! - Priced right! Cons: - LED placement looks out of place (at the bottom) - Comes pre-formatted with NTFS - not the first choice for Mac machines - No lanyard, keychain hook (tiny things are better secured that way!) - The red band looks like a cheap alternative to cable strap - doesnt really add to the looks or utility! My initial impression is that this is going to be a keeper - particularly after knowing what makes the heart of this SSD. This is going to replace or augment my much beloved Samsung 128GB (Metal bar) USB 3.0 flash drive (MUF-128BA/AM) without me being worried about data loss or sudden failures (which are very common among lesser known brands). Based on my personal experience, I would choose Made in Taiwan stuff over where most of electronics is being made anyday and this little fella is from Taiwan. So far so good... I will update my review if theres anything new to report (or if I figure out a better use for the red band).
