Despite its compact size, the SK Hynix Beetle X31 is actually a 1TB SSD that can reach up to 1,050MB/s speeds, which means it’s going to take you very little time to transfer even huge files. It’s also sleek and stylish, though the golden finish may not be to everyone’s tastes.
When we reviewed the SK Hynix Beetle X31, we gave it a near-perfect score of 4.5 out of 5 stars and our Editors’ Choice award, with our reviewing expert praising its performance and naming it one of the top-performing 10Gbps SSDs we’ve tested.
It may look like a beetle (well, more like a scarab), but despite its delicate design, it’s rather durable. SK Hynix claims that it — and your data along with it — can survive drops from up to 6 feet high.
This portable SSD also works out of the box with nearly all modern devices, including laptops, desktops, Macs, tablets, and gaming consoles. The package features two cables — USB-C-to-C and USB-C-to-A — so you’re covered no matter what interface your devices use.
Don’t miss this chance to snag this golden 1TB portable SSD for just $85 at Amazon. It’s tried, tested, and well worth every penny.
