Native USB, compact, durable, highly compatible, and fast as hell. Kingston's XS2000 portable SSD is best-in-class and TweakTown Elite. Goodbye, and good riddance to bridge chips.ProsSpeedPortability5-year warrantyConsNone...

Overall Performance, Diminutive size, Large capacity, Durability,
Needs USB 3.2 Gen 2 x2 compatible system to get the best performance, Lacks hardware encryption,
The last Kingston external drive we looked at was the latest member of the DataTraveler series - the DataTraveler Max. At the time we thought that drive was fast, but the XS2000 can show that drive a clean pair of heels as it carries a speed rating of 200...
Reasonably priced, Headline performance, Small and lightweight
Needs USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 for full speed, Limited SLC cache size, No USB Type-A adapter
Overall, there is plenty to like in the Kingston XS2000, especially for those lucky enough to have Gen 2x2 USB ports.Availability of that port is primarily the issue this product faces. Most systems don't have this port on them since many hardware makers...
Fantastic speed if you have a compatible system, 5-year warranty, Good value for money, Rugged with IP55 rating, Very solidly built

Abstract: If you need speedy local storage for lots of files (say, music or movies you carry around, or all those pics and videos you collect on your phone or camera), you may want to consider a portable solid-state drive (SSD) rather than a portable hard drive. O...
Compact and Petite SSD, Pricewise Justifiable, USB-C based SSD that's super Fast
Gen 2x2 Speeds doesn't work on many devices
But does it mean that the Kingston XS2000 Portable SSD is a bad product? Not at all. It's far from that. Although you only get to experience half the advertised speeds, when you do upgrade to capable hardware, it gives amazing performance. But honestly, t...
Comes with protective rubber sleeve, Good performance of up to 2000MB/s, Delivers consistently high write speeds, Decent value for the performance offered
No encryption or security features
If you want a fast external SSD, the Kingston XS2000 gives you just that, at a pretty reasonable price...
Abstract: With most of the CPU and GPU manufacturers including support for new PCIe Gen 4.0, its only fair for the components manufacturer to take advantage of that. Kingston unveiled their new lineup of NVMe SSD Lineup, including Codename Ghost Tree, their new PCI...
