Portable 4 TB SSD for creators

The Kingston XS2000 provides 4 TB of 3D NAND storage in a pocket-sized enclosure. It connects through a USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 Type-C interface and delivers sequential read and write speeds up to 2000 MBps. The drive suits photographers, videographers and professionals who move large media libraries between workstations.

Rugged sleeve and broad compatibility

A removable rubber sleeve adds water resistance and protects the silver chassis during daily transport. The compact form factor measures 69.54 mm by 32.58 mm by 13.5 mm and weighs 28.9 g. It operates from 0 °C to 40 °C and works with Windows 10, 8.1, Mac OS 10.14 and later, Linux 2.6 and later, and Chrome OS without extra drivers.

Replaces slower external drives

Users upgrading from USB 3.0 or USB 3.1 Gen 1 portable drives will see a substantial reduction in transfer times for 8K footage and high-resolution image batches. The jump is most valuable when the host system supports USB 3.2 Gen 2x2; on older ports the drive still functions but cannot reach its rated throughput.
