Because it will be proprietary. We don't need to crack one open to know. But we aren't stopping you if you don't want to believe us. Buy it. Crack it open. Win stupid prizes.

Prices will always go down eventually. The speed will always be limited by the USB Bus speed. It will never match internal bus speeds of NVME. In most cases buying a quality built external SSD...

Really? I've done this for literally decades with other external drives. Every time it's just a typical SATA drive, just depends on which one. If this had some kind of proprietary interface, it...

I don't know how you got so much bad luck with USB C but it's has been working perfectly fine for me. They haven't worn out, gotten slippery, or had port failures.

USB C is pretty much a POS interface too IMO.
It's wears out, has no real attachment strength, and ultimately will lead to more port failures.
I got my first USB C computer over 6 years ago...
