Deal History
Deal History includes data from multiple reputable stores, such as Best Buy, Target, and Walmart. The lowest price among stores for a given day is selected as the "Sale Price".
Sale Price does not include sale prices at Amazon unless a deal was posted by a community member.
Will this work as a good portable storage or are are these bad for multiple writes?
It has a 3yr warranty with a tbw limit I can't find so I'd say it's fairly durable. I bought a Kingston xs1000 that has a 5 year and 1200 tbw warranty for $99 back in October and it is screaming fast like this one but much smaller.
That links is for the X9, not the X9 Pro. X9 is QLC while the X9 Pro is TLC.
EDIT: I think the X9 Pro also has a 5 year warranty, an aluminum case and an IPX rating while the regular X9 is a 3 year warranty, plastic case and no IPX rating. Spend the extra $10 and get the Pro.

I struggled for the X10. However, many Macs and Windows don't have the USB 3 2x2 needed. So, saved the money and went with the 9.
if you aren't storing critical data or data that isn't stored elsewhere Id go for whatever is cheaper from this list, they are all faster than regular external and portable hard drives
Kingston XS1000 for Value
Samsung T7 for Reliability & Value
Samsung T9 for Reliability and Performance
Crucial X10 Pro for Performance & Value

Yes but what if someone does this with critical data?
I think that might be the actual question to answer

As a Mac user, I'd just get the cheaper one and format it myself. Only takes a couple seconds in Disk Utility.
