An industry standard fast slim SSD drive

With a USB 3.2 Gen 1 interface, this drive supports the most common USB generation: USB 3.0. This means it will work with most USB ports out there. It will also run with the newer USB 3.2 Gen 2 port at 5Gbps. In addition, an eSATA port is included for those that need the extra type of port.

BUSlink Disk-On-The-Go drive delivers speed, size, and portability – all in a compact 2.5″ form factor enclosure. Not only lightweight and portable but with less plastic used, more recyclable and eco-friendly too.
