Overall fastest USB SSD currently available, Relatively affordable, IP55 rated against dust and mild streams of water
Slightly slower reading files than Samsung's T7
The SanDisk Extreme Pro Portable SSD is the fastest writer we've seen by far. It's IP55-rated to fend off dust and water, affordable for its ilk, and we even like the looks. Unless you want the fingerprint security offered by its Samsung T7 rival, this is...

Abstract: It's been quite some time since our last SSD roundup and we hadn't seen much need for one until recently. SSD technology grew stale after saturating the SATA 6Gb/s bus, bringing mostly minor improvements in recent memory and making up for it with price cu...
Abstract: In the world of PC technology, there's always a bottleneck somewhere in the platform. For years, hard disk drives were arguably the worst offenders, poking along at about 150MB/s while the rest of the PC could communicate in GB/s. The third version of SAT...
