PSA that many Macs, especially Apple Silicon USB4 *lack* USB 3.2 Gen 2x2. As such these will run at 10 Gbps on those machines.

Apple Silicon Macs should use USB4 (or Thunderbolt) SSDs for full speed.

Send like a good deal. Reviews on Amazon are pretty good. Am I missing something?

this is external drive, hence "portable"
Some external/portable drives are basically just enclosures with an SSD/HDD inside...

Also curious if this can be shucked. I have a similar Samsung, but it's basically a big PCB on the inside and no easy way to attach to an M2 or SATA port. Assuming this is the same, but no idea.

Yeah, that's a bot account, they're always snippy but factually incorrect

This problem actually isn't limited only to macs. Most Thunderbolt controllers on the planet don't support a 20Gbps mode and will fall back to 10Gbps on drives like this.
For maximum compatibility in terms of reaching peak speed, you'll want a USB 4 drive or enclosure.

Before the hikes, a good deal was $50/TB. This deal is $80/TB. So, no, this isn't a good price from the pre-hike era. However, it's debatable if those prices will return anytime soon. Being around $80/TB (rather than the roughly $100+/TB that prevails now) is a pretty good deal.
I do believe prices will come down eventually, but most industry experts say fab capacity (both for RAM and flash/SSD storage) is consumed for years to come.

Tom's Hardware reviewed the 1TB version and gave it 3.5/5:

PC Mag also gave the 2TB version 3.5/5:
https://www.pcmag.com/reviews/pny...rtable-ssd

I think if you care that more sequential speed (rather than random writes) and you can take advantage of Gen 2 x 2, it's a decent discount from the prevailing recent prices. Presumably prices won't come down in the near future, but you never know. No one has a magic ball.
I think the reason for the discount might be the limitations: as others have stated, Gen 2 x 2 is being supplanted by newer interfaces.

Edit: I mixed up sequential and random. ETA: actual answer to the pricing question.

I haven't seen any 2TB ssds for under $200 in a while, so seems pretty good to me.

They're charging $590 for a 2tb Sandisk Extreme Pro portable, which is... offensive.
