Review: Compact, Fast, and Works with Everything - This is one of the most convenient portable SSDs I’ve used. It’s fast, tiny, and the dual connectors make it compatible with phones, laptops, TVs — everything. Transfer speeds are excellent, and it's perfect for backups or moving videos. Very impressed.
Review: Revolutionary piece of technology - This thing is incredible, to the point where I can't even believe there was a time I didn't own it. I bought the 128GB version when I started a YouTube channel about 6 months ago because it was the only way I could think to bridge the hardware gap between my extremely old PC and my extremely new phone that I use to film. I quickly discovered that this little SSD is good for so much more than transferring B-roll, though. Before long, I realized I hadn't emailed a picture or document to myself in weeks! The write speed on this bad boy is so insane that it's frankly easier using it to ferry files to and from devices than going through the rigmarole of typing out your email address, adding an attachment, coming up with some nonsense subject line, and tapping your foot while it sends. Even now, I only resort to the dreaded email terminal in times of extreme duress. That is, those rare moments when I don't have one of my Transcend SSDs on me. Yeah, that's right, it's so good that I bought the 512GB when I saw it was on sale! I've since been using that one for my videos, and I still haven't made a dent in its storage limit even after putting hours of unprocessed, HD footage on there. Even the comparatively modest 128GB is nothing to sneeze at. In the last week alone, I've used it to install Windows on my new PC, back up the last year's worth of photos, and just today I used it to move vocal tracks for a song I'm working on from my laptop to my main workstation. Let me reiterate, that's just what I did with the $30 option, people. Now, it is true that these drives get pretty hot, especially if you're moving a lot of stuff onto one. I tried to put a ton of footage on the 512GB all at once a few months back, and it actually shorted out my phone. Luckily, no lasting harm was done, otherwise this would be a mere 4-star review, but that's definitely something to consider. I would certainly caution against "bulk jobs," as such, because at a certain point you start tempting fate. That said, when I was backing up this year's pictures and videos, I was comfortably able to transfer batches of about 50-100 items at a time without issue, so even with a certain level of restraint, you can move a lot of volume with one of these. All in all, these flash drives have become very crucial pieces of equipment for me, and if you're on the fence about buying one, I implore you to check them out! I'm probably going to splurge for the 1TB once my old HDD finally gives up the ghost.

A: Yes, it will work as a boot drive. You may have to refomat it.

A: While not on a TV, I have it plugged into a micro PC and it is warm just idling.

I have a similar one from a different brand with the same controller and NAND memory but it is plastic rather than metal.  It shows the same temperature.

A: If it is formatted exFAT, NTFS or any other current file systems it can take larger files.  FAT32 has this 4GB limitation.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Terrific Bang For The Buck!
*by D***E on September 26, 2023*

I'm glad I pulled the trigger on this little 2TB Bad Boy. It's super-fast and just works. Depending on your use, you may get different results. First, don't pay any attention to the speed specs of any stick or SSD drives. They all base their exaggerated speed claims on best-case scenarios. That being said, I use mine for storage and playing movie files on my Samsung Smart TV as I no longer use disc drives. It plays a full 2-hour to 3-hour movie without getting very hot and without a hiccup. When transferring movie files to it, I regularly got 200 to 300 MB/s write transfer speed (my Samsung T-5 and T-7 SSD drives write at 30 to 35 GB/s). If I transferred 200 to 500 GB at a time, it would get very hot by the time it wrote 150 GB's or so. If I blew air on it while it was writing, it cooled down considerably. And after a hundred GB or so and hot temp, it would slow down to around 80MB/s speed for a while but pick back up in speed, especially if I blew air on it to cool it down. So, I would recommend transferring about 100GB at a time instead of half a TB at a time. But either way will work fine. Don't let the hot temp bother you. It's designed to operate at the extreme temp. My Patriot 500GB and 1-TB sticks gets super-hot as well and they have never failed me. So, this is not abnormal. I also love the USB "C" connection it has on one end. Now I can finally make use of my "C" connection on my laptop and keep the other 2 USB-3 ports open. I use this Transcend stick to play movie files and my Samsung 2TB T-7 as the backup SSD drive for my movie files. But the Samsung SSD movie file transfer speed is only about 35 GB/s while this Transcend stick writes movie files at 200 to 300GB/s. So, I'm definitely going to get another one of these Transcend 2TB sticks. The hot temps and occasional slow-downs are really not a big deal when you consider the small size, convenience and extreme speed of this stick. And the end caps fit on snug. No issue there. If you've been thinking about this little gem, just get it. You'll be glad and impressed.
