An external USB-C SSD that fits in your pocket
The Corsair EX100U features a minimalist design and remarkable compactness, measuring just 7.9 x 3.7 cm and weighing 22 grams. This reduced size makes it one of the most practical SSDs to carry, easily slipping into a pocket or bag. Its aluminum casing, beyond its sober appearance, ensures good heat dissipation and solid protection against shocks, thus guaranteeing increased durability when traveling.
Featuring the USB 3.2 Gen 2×2 standard, the EX100U announces speeds of up to 1600 MB/s reading and 1500 MB/s writing. Which makes it a fearsomely fast model, outperforming certain competitors like the Transcend ESD380C. However, during typical transfers, speeds can be capped around 1250 MB/s, limiting its potential with less recent hardware.
An external SSD may be limited by its connectivity
The EX100U has a USB-C port protected by a dust cover, convenient for carrying, and Corsair has included two cables in the package: one USB-C/USB-C and one USB-C/ USB-A in the package. Very handy if you're using older hardware that lacks USB-C ports, which could limit the device's versatility.
The EX100U remains one of the most efficient external SSDs on the market, particularly in terms of copy-write speed. It far exceeds its competitors, displaying rare homogeneity between reading and writing speeds. This model is therefore ideal for users looking for performance and portability, although dual-stream transfers and older hardware may limit its maximum capacities.
