The read
What's actually worth knowing.
- It reads data at up to 2,100MB/s, which means transferring a large video file or game takes noticeably less time than with older external hard drives or slower SSDs.
- The drive has IP65 dust and water resistance plus drop protection up to 9.8 feet, so it can handle being thrown in a backpack or used outdoors without much worry.
- It's quite small and light at 0.07 pounds, making it genuinely portable, though you'll want to keep track of the included USB-C cable since it doesn't have one built in.
As of Aug 30, the Crucial X10 1TB Portable SSD is overpriced at $234.99 — versus a $134.68 typical price and a $81.99 12-month low, based on Amazon's own price history.
