> 3 dayI bought this drive to use as a storage drive for PC imaging. Plenty fast and so far durable. Ive dropped it twice, once from three feet and the other from four feet with no visable damage. Transfer speeds have not been tested but Ive no problem with its performance - as you may know high speed streaming of images is never super fast on a value drive but it certainly beats a mechanical spindle drive.

> 3 dayI was skeptical at first with how poor some of the other reviews were. some claimed it to be as slow as any other HDD and as a gamer looking for fast loading screens I wasnt too sure. However I can assure you after playing both CS:GO and BF2042 all day on this device I saw no real difference between those games loading from my built in SSD and this SSD. Do note I am running it with the USB C to USB C on a Gen 2 USB C 3.2 port. Im not sure if that has an advantage over a Gen 2 USB A 3.2 port, I havent tried it. As of today 8/29/22 the SSD works great for gaming. If I run into any issues in the future Ill be sure to update my review and if you never see this review change its still in great working condition.

> 3 dayI used this External Hard Drive as my Time Machine. It quit after 18 months, at a time I needed it most, of course. Manufacturer was not helpful to recover the data...

> 3 dayUsing this on my PS4. I immediately noticed interference with my Bluetooth controllers input being baggy, and even disconnecting when games are loading. I bought an extension (6) USB3 cord, relocated it away, and that resolved the issue.

Greater than one weekI needed space and I could have bought 6-8TB for the price of a 1 TB SSD. But I decided on a SSD because Im tired of mechanical drives. Usually in electronics, if it works for 30 + days, it will last 5 years, But Hds are touchy and often fail without mercy. So, a 1 TB at $125 was the way to go. If it works for a month, it will be reliable for a long time. This one is small, USB-C power/data cable in front (the only thing I dont like about it), has a sleep mode but is plenty fast reading and writing. My PC is only 3.0, but very fast. But I like it so much, Im considering another one now. Good Luck

> 3 dayUsing Silicon Powers rugged 1Tb external hard drive on Windows 11, USB 3.2 Gen1, with type A included cable. Accessing a Word, PDF, JPEG, any folder etc. is as fast as accessing it on your C drive. No exaggeration with that statement. Im totally impressed. The description says it comes formatted FAT32. Mine came formatted NTSF which is what I would have changed it to had it come FAT32.
