Lightweight Portable Storage

The Transcend ESD260C is a 1TB external solid-state drive weighing only 33 g. Its sturdy metallic case in a silver hue is built for daily transport. It connects via a USB Type-C port using the USB 3.1 Gen 2 interface. This drive suits anyone needing fast, pocket-sized backup for laptops or mobile devices.

USB 3.1 Gen 2 Speed

The decisive specification is the USB 3.1 Gen 2 interface with UASP support, delivering sequential transfers up to 520 MB/s. This bandwidth determines whether the drive can keep pace with large media libraries or system images. If your workflow demands sustained writes beyond that ceiling, this model will not meet the requirement.

Type-C Plug-and-Play

The drive draws power directly from the host USB Type-C port, so no external adapter is needed. It works with any computer or device offering a compatible USB 3.1 Gen 2 Type-C connection. The compact aluminium body adds negligible bulk to a bag, freeing desk space while keeping up to 1TB of data immediately accessible.

Questions about this item

What real-world transfer speed can I expect from the 520 MB/s rating when the drive is connected to my computer?

The USB 3.1 Gen 2 interface with UASP supports up to 520 MB/s, so large file transfers will approach that rate on a compatible port.

Which USB standard does the Type-C port use, and what throughput does it limit me to?

It uses USB 3.1 Gen 2, which provides the 520 MB/s ceiling quoted for this drive.

Will the 33 g drive fit in a standard 2.5-inch bay or does it need a special mount?

The ESD260C is a pocket-sized portable SSD with a Type-C cable; it does not use a 2.5-inch form factor or require a drive bay.
