Requires latest USB port, Premium price point
On first looking at and handling the Kingston XS2000 SSD, you are instantly hit with how small and light the drive is, especially considering its capacity. Then, once you start to use the drive and see the speeds, there really is very little not to like o...
High quality, Top performance, Available in capacities up to 2TB, 5-year warranty, Reasonable price
Nothing worth to mention,
The XS2000 2TB portable SSD is another well-designed product from Kingston. Everything from the package to the rubber sleeve is perfect, and the SSD itself is lightning fast. This product is highly recommended for all users who work directly on portable s...

Mediocre random read and write performance
With the XS2000, Kingston has shown us that good things do come in small packages. This pocket-sized, portable SSD is both solidly constructed and lightweight. In addition to its metal and plastic casing, the drive includes a removable rubber sleeve that...
Small form factor, Great speeds, Included rubber sleeve, Price
No encryption, No software
The Kingston XS2000 is only the second USB 3.2 gen 2×2 portable solid state drive that we've tested. While it was slightly slower than the ADATA SE900G the speeds were very close to the advertised speeds of 2000 MB/s. In CrystalDiskMark we saw read speeds...
The Kingston XS2000 series manages to bring a high-performance native UFD controller-based portable SSD in a compact and attractive package. The most attractive aspect, however, is the pricing structure. The 500GB SKU is priced at $85, the 1TB version is...

Compact and light, Responsive performance, IP55 rated with rubber sleeve, 5-year warranty,
Small but very thick, Lacks encryption, Slow and inconsistent sustained write speeds
Kingston's XS2000 is a responsive portable SSD that delivers up to 2 GBps of throughput and decent pricing, but it lacks the sustained write performance of more capable DRAM-equipped SSDs...

Abstract: The Kingston XS2000 Portable SSD ($99.99 for 500GB, $159.99 for 1TB as tested, $284.99 for 2TB) is one of the smallest external solid-state drives we have reviewed, but within its diminutive frame is a fast, durable, and powerful SSD that can take advanta...

The SMI SM2320 USB 3.2 Gen 2×2 is a brand new controller to the market and Kingston is the first to show it off with their XS2000 Portable SSD. It is small, lightweight and very fast at 2GB/s read and write speeds, using its own data cable to power the de...

Everywhere we looked, Kingston's 2TB XS2000 gave us what we wanted to see. Not only is it the most compatible USB-based portable SSD we've tested to date, but it's also, at the same time, overall the fastest. Remarkable, really, and as such, Kingston's XS...
