  • 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
  • Requires the right hardware to maintain USP, Expensive if you just want plenty of fast storage
  • The Kingston XS2000 portable SSD has all the hallmarks of a successful product but we're still puzzled as to why the company chose to jump on the USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 bandwagon with USB 4.0 on the verge of going mainstream. Still you can't go wrong with it if...

  • 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...
