Portable SSD for mobile workflows

The Crucial X9 is a 2 TB external solid-state drive that delivers sequential read speeds up to 1050 MB/s over USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-C. Its pocket-sized enclosure measures 2.55 x 1.96 x 0.39 inches and weighs 32 g, making it suited for professionals and creatives who need fast, portable storage for large media libraries and project files.

Verify host port and cable

Before ordering, confirm that your laptop, desktop or tablet provides a USB Type-C port that supports USB 3.2 Gen 2 (10 Gbps) to achieve the advertised 1050 MB/s throughput. Older Type-C ports limited to USB 3.2 Gen 1 or USB 2.0 will operate at reduced speeds, and a Type-A adapter or legacy cable will further limit performance.

Type-C cable enables direct connection

The included USB Type-C cable allows immediate plug-and-play use with any modern USB-C host without extra adapters or driver installation. No bundled software utilities or encryption tools are mentioned, so the accessory simply provides the physical link needed to access the drive on Windows, macOS, Linux, Android and other USB-C platforms.

Questions about this item

What does the 2 TB X9 include and is a cable supplied?

The drive itself is the only item listed; no separate cable or adapter is mentioned in the specifications.

Which capacity should I pick if I need the fastest 1050 MB/s transfer rate?

Every capacity in the X9 range, including this 2 TB model, is rated for the same 1050 MB/s maximum sequential speed.

Will I actually see 1050 MB/s when the X9 is plugged into my laptop?

You will only reach that figure on a host port that supports USB 3.2 Gen 2; older USB-C or USB-A ports will run slower.
