Overview
A dorm desk or console shelf is where this slim spinning drive lives. It plugs in over USB, comes with a cable and a Type-C adapter, and its aluminum and glass shell makes it thin.
Modest capacity and wide device coverage make it an easy add-on for older consoles and laptops. It trails any flash drive for speed, and the listing includes several cache and speed entries that cannot be right.
Who it's for
A user with a laptop or a previous-generation console who wants light extra space for backups and games. Anyone editing video or running current-generation games from the drive should consider flash storage.
Pros and cons
- Slim aluminum and glass body
- USB cable and Type-C adapter included
- Works with PC, Mac and older consoles
- Spinning disk is slower than flash
- Capacity is small
- Speed entries use inconsistent units
- Newest console not listed
Performance notes
A spinning disk reads at the listed rate on large sequential files and slows on many small files. The USB link is faster than the disk, so the mechanism decides the speed. Knocks during use pose more risk to a spinning disk than to flash storage.
