The claimed sustained write speed is 2000 MB/s, and it utilizes a 40 Gb/s USB-C Interface (USB4). It is also compatible with Thunderbolt 4, Thunderbolt 3, and other USB-C ports that operate using the 10 Gb/s USB 3.2 Gen 2 (3.1 Gen 2/3.1) and 5 Gb/s 3.2 Gen 1 (3.1 Gen 1/3.0) standards.
This SSD operates using bus power and features a dual heatsink design for improved cooling with no throttling, a writable label area for Avery labels, and uses an LED to confirm the drive is receiving 15W of power. Thanks to Refresh Pro, users will be able to monitor the drive’s health, restore lost performance, and update firmware.

This new capacity joins the existing 2TB, 4TB, and 8TB models in a portable, bus-powered design.
