Kingston 2TB XS1000 USB-A 3.2 Gen 2 External SSD

I love this memory a lot since it is very practical and perfect for not having so much content on my phone or computer, it is perfect to take anywhere. I would definitely buy it blindfolded

Needed a small external hard drive (because of desk size) to use for my Time Machine back up. This works perfectly and was easy to set up.

I really liked this external drive. I loved that it is small with a lot of capacity. I can't say much for the durability yet but so far it's working great!

I received this for free from Influenster in exchange for my honest review! This is my first experience with a portable SSD and I have no complaints! It 9s very travel friendly and can hold a lot of data (I received the 500gb option but I know there are 1-2TB as well!). Very user-friendly and a great product for the price point. I 9d definitely recommend!

This is truly a great product! If you need extra storage without a hassle this is the product for you! Such a better alternative to a basic flash drive

Kingston XS1000 external ssd card is having a big size which is all I wanted because my 1TB external hard disk just was broken. I 9m so grateful for this new device and it 9s not big and heavy to carry. I think I can run my old Asus mini laptop with it.

The Kingston 2TB XS1000 USB-A 3.2 Gen 2 External SSD has worked as advertised for about thirty days or so. I purchased for use as a backup solution in the field. The setup includes an iPhone 15 Pro (iOS 17.2), an OWC USB Type-C Travel Dock supplied by 30W Power Delivery and using its integrated USB 3.1 Gen 1 Type-C Cable connected to the iPhone, and Angelbird 256GB AV Pro UHS-II SDXC Memory Card, a Delkin Devices USB 3.2 CFexpress Memory Card Reader with a SanDisk 512GB Extreme PRO CFexpress Card Type B, and of course, the subject of this review, the Kingston 2TB XS1000 USB-A 3.2 Gen 2 External SSD. The setup works flawlessly with some observations. Transfer speeds through the described USB hub are about 400 MB/s, whereas, with the SSD plugged in directly to the iPhone, transfer speeds are about double at 800 MB/s. When the SSD is plugged directly into an Apple silicon Mac, speeds are slightly better at about 900 MB/s. The latter is closer to the manufacturer's specified speeds of 1000 MB/s. The bottom line is that the Kingston 2TB XS1000 USB-A 3.2 Gen 2 is a small but mighty SSD that sits somewhere between USB 3.2 Gen 1 and Gen 2 speeds. It is a great solution for use in the field. Note: I used the standard iOS Files App to copy Canon RAW Lite and XF-AVC video files from SD and CFExpress cards. I had no issues copying and moving files around while in the field.
