I got this drive at a great price on sale. I put into an external housing with a fast USB interface. With it I get speeds of typically 400 MB/s, which are close to the maximum of 500 MB/s for this drive connected directly to the SATA inside a pc. I use it to do backups of the drives inside my tower. It is an economical means of performing this function.

This tiny external USB drive is a very good way to add additional storage to a laptop without having to clone and install a drive into the laptop. It protrudes only a small amount from the side of the laptop, allowing it to remained plugged in while inserted into a sleeve or carrying bag. The speed of the drive is as advertised, which is suitable for smaller files (such as photos). It is an excellent buy when on sale.

Each pocket is sealed shut with Velcro. It has a smaller pocket on the front that has a sturdy zipper. The main compartment is sealed with two sturdy zippers. The case has two cloth handles. The padding is sufficient for light travel. This is a good budget laptop bag, and I am happy with its purchase.

I was able to get this at an excellent price as open box in excellent condition. It comes with an AC power cord that is a hair over 6 feet long, and a USB-C cable that is 19 inches long. The USB-C cable connects the laptop to the dock, and provides power to the laptop as well as high speed data in both directions. The dock has a good variety of ports. I was particularly happy for the ethernet port, as I do not have that port on my laptop. The dock is a little chunky, but still small enough to be easily packed for transport. I am quite happy with this purchase.

This flash drive is a very easy way to add storage to a laptop, in a way that can be semi-permanent and not stick out much from the laptop. In addition it will not block any other ports on the laptop. The speed is as advertised - sufficient for files that are not too big, such as photos. The photos below show it next to a smallish 14" laptop. It makes an easy way to add storage to a space limited laptop.
