Review: Pocket-Sized 2TB SSD Drive that Packs a Punch - For many years I’ve used a large-capacity external drive to store my home studio music recording, video creation and publishing files (including music scores, text books and catalogues, destined for commercial publishing), as these kinds of files can grow quite quickly and can fill up space on my iMac’s internal drive in no time. When my trusty G-Drive 2TB thunderbolt disc drive started refusing to power up, admittedly after years of service, it was time to find a trustworthy replacement - ideally something that would offer a quicker startup speed and also a faster speed when writing to the drive. I had ruled out SSD drives previously because of the price but a recent search for the fastest 2TB SSD drives included this Kingston SSD, with a much lower price tag than I was expecting. My previous external G-Drive was very slow and it was frustrating to have to wait for the disk to get up to speed, if it had been idle for a while. Physically, it was also comparatively large - it must have been about 12cm wide x 22cm long by about 4cm high (as a rough estimate). So I was very surprised that this Kingston SSD is smaller than a Mars bar! Though I don’t plan to carry it around with me, I can see how someone producing large files at home could easily put it into a pocket and take their work elsewhere, eg, to a recording studio or a location where they plan to deliver a presentation, for example, where the drive could be plugged into another computer (Mac or PC). This could be useful for any space-hungry files, including video, large images, audio recordings, larger presentations, etc. While file sharing via the cloud is cheap enough and pretty normal these days, the ease of being able to take your work on this drive and plug it into a computer in another location, means that you don’t need to worry about whether the host computer has enough internal drive space to accommodate your massive files! In my case, this 2TB SSD’s tiny size (see the photo) helps keep my desk clearer than I’ve been used to but I’m particularly delighted that it’s available instantly. Unlike my previous drive, which whirred for up to 10 seconds like a tiny helicopter getting its rotors spinning before take-off, this Kingston SSD is totally silent, as there are no moving parts. So, I’m absolutely delighted with this, my first SSD external drive. Can’t recommend it highly enough. Review: Brand and quality - This is working well. Does not heat up, not sure about the power consumption though. Good performance in terms of speed and seems to be fair price considering today's reality. ## Features - Industry-leading read/write speeds up to 2,000MB/s¹ - Requires compatible devices to reach USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 USB-C Performance¹ - Capacities up to 4TB² - Compact, pocket-sized form factor - IP55 rating⁴ with removable black rubber sleeve ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B09F5YHQ1K | | Best Sellers Rank | 5,381 in Computers & Accessories ( See Top 100 in Computers & Accessories ) 15 in External Solid State Drives | | Box Contents | 1x XS2000 includes a removable ruggedised sleeve | | Brand | Kingston | | Brand Name | Kingston | | Cache Memory Installed Size | 1 | | Color | Silver | | Compatible Devices | Desktop | | Compatible Video Game Console Models | Microsoft Xbox 360, Microsoft Xbox One, Microsoft Xbox SERIES S, Microsoft Xbox SERIES X, Nintendo Switch, Nintendo Switch - OLED Model, Nintendo Switch 2, Nintendo Switch Lite, Sony PlayStation 3, Sony PlayStation 4, Sony PlayStation 5 | | Connectivity technology | USB | | Country of Origin | Taiwan | | Customer Package Type | Deposit Crate | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 out of 5 stars 3,907 Reviews | | Data Transfer Rate | 2000 Megabytes Per Second | | Digital Storage Capacity | 1 TB | | Digital storage capacity | 1 TB | | Enclosure Material | Rubber | | Form Factor | 2.5-inch | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00740617321340 | | Hard Disk Description | Solid State Drive | | Hard Disk Form Factor | 2.5 Inches | | Hard Disk Interface | USB 3.2 | | Hard Disk Rotational Speed | 7200 | | Hard disk form factor | 2.5 Inches | | Hard disk interface | USB 3.2 | | Hard-Drive Size | 4 TB | | Hardware Connectivity | USB 3.2 Gen 2×2 | | Hardware Platform | standard | | Installation Type | External Hard Drive | | Item Dimensions L x W x Thickness | 17.7L x 8.3W x 3.4Th centimetres | | Item Type Name | Kingston XS2000 Portable SSD 1000G -SXS2000/1000G | | Item Weight | 0.12 Pounds | | Manufacturer | Kingston | | Manufacturer Part Number | SXS2000/1000G | | Media Speed | 2000 megabits_per_second | | Model Name | SXS2000/1000G | | Model Number | SXS2000/1000G | | Network Connectivity Technology | USB | | Number of Items | 1 | | Product Features | Portable | | Product Warranty | 2 year manufacturer | | Read Speed | 2000 Megabytes Per Second | | Special feature | Portable | | Specific Uses For Product | Business, Gaming, Personal | | UPC | 740617321340 | | Unit Count | 1.0 count | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Kingston - **Colour:** Silver - **Compatible devices:** Desktop - **Connectivity technology:** USB - **Digital storage capacity:** 1 TB - **Hard disk description:** Solid State Drive - **Hard disk form factor:** 2.5 Inches - **Hard disk interface:** USB 3.2 - **Installation type:** External Hard Drive - **Special feature:** Portable ## Images ![XS2000 1TB External SSD USB 3.2 Gen 2 Portable Solid State Drive - SXS2000/1000G - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61X8+Qvf0mL.jpg) ![XS2000 1TB External SSD USB 3.2 Gen 2 Portable Solid State Drive - SXS2000/1000G - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/716SPKrp6nL.jpg) ![XS2000 1TB External SSD USB 3.2 Gen 2 Portable Solid State Drive - SXS2000/1000G - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61SUsD4lU9L.jpg) ![XS2000 1TB External SSD USB 3.2 Gen 2 Portable Solid State Drive - SXS2000/1000G - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71BfI76a8ZL.jpg) ![XS2000 1TB External SSD USB 3.2 Gen 2 Portable Solid State Drive - SXS2000/1000G - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81C8Cu6EY6L.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Size, Style** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: I assume this is also compatable with all previous (slower) USB standards as long as power requirements are satisfied?** A: This is correct, but a supported operating system has to be used as well on the host system. **Q: Will this achieve 2000mb/s when connected to the thunderbolt (40gbps) port of a 2018 macbook pro?** A: No, Write speed I got is 634mbps and read 928mbps, also slows down significantly on anything over 5gb **Q: Can I use this with my Mac without downloading software or reformatting?** A: Yes. I use it on a 2014 MPB, OS Catalina. Didn't need to do anything and it's always worked a treat. I did have to buy a USB 3 to USB C adapter because I have an older Mac. But that shouldn't be a problem with newer MacBooks, which all have thunderbolt inputs. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Pocket-Sized 2TB SSD Drive that Packs a Punch *by B***N on 30 December 2021* For many years I’ve used a large-capacity external drive to store my home studio music recording, video creation and publishing files (including music scores, text books and catalogues, destined for commercial publishing), as these kinds of files can grow quite quickly and can fill up space on my iMac’s internal drive in no time.
