    So far, it works perfectly and quickly on both Mac and PC. I edit footage with material on the disk. The external casing looks a bit "cheap" but it's okay, it's complete!!! I don't have any negative comments.

    I have in the office a variety of flash memory even the fast ones do not exceed 100mb write read which means that for example recording 40gb raw video may take 30-40 minutes with this one it barely exceeds 2-3 minutes! And all this at the price of 60 euros! (BF plaisio)

    I bought it during the current offer of PLAIOS (bl.fr 2023). It's a super disk, I was surprised by its speed and responsiveness. I have a Sandisk 2tb and this one is an SSD, so I did a speed test. I transferred a folder with 10gb. The Sandisk took 54 seconds while the Corsair only took 9!!!!! For 10 gigs of material. I think it's a super purchase and very affordable at the moment. (I have a MacBook 2022 M1 pro.) And it's very minimal. Like a wide USB stick!!!! Buy it while it's in stock.

    Very good, I got it on Black Friday offer for 60 euros from 90, it's worth even more than that price, I easily connected it to the laptop's USB-C and installed games with SSD requirements (Starfield, Alan Wake 2). Needless to say, the games now load without exaggeration 10 times faster than before and don't lag during gameplay. The copy between the laptop's NVMe and the Corsair happens at 500+ MB/s, very satisfied. Whoever can get it now wherever they find it on offer for 60 euros on Black Friday
