What it is and who it targets

The Lexar SL300 is a portable external SSD that connects over USB 3.2 Gen 2 and delivers sequential reads up to 1050 MB/s and writes up to 1000 MB/s. It ships with a 2-in-1 USB-C to USB-A cable for broad device compatibility.

Who it suits and who it does not

Creative professionals and mobile users who need rugged, pocketable storage with IP54 dust and water resistance plus 2 m drop protection will benefit. Buyers who need capacities beyond 2 TB or who require higher sustained throughput for intensive workloads should look elsewhere.

The spec that decides fit

The drive uses a USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-C interface with the included dual-headed cable, so the host must provide a compatible USB-C or USB-A port to achieve the rated 1050 MB/s read and 1000 MB/s write speeds.

Questions about this item

What does the USB 3.2 Gen 2 interface cap the read speed at?

The USB 3.2 Gen 2 interface supports up to 1050MB/s read and 1000MB/s write, so the practical ceiling matches those rated speeds.

What physical space does the 3.96 x 1.97 x 0.41 inch enclosure need?

The drive measures 3.96 by 1.97 by 0.41 inches and weighs 1.48 oz, so it fits in a shirt pocket or small pouch without extra mounting hardware.

How is the 2-in-1 USB-C/USB-A cable connected, and what step do people miss?

Plug the USB-C end into the drive and choose the USB-A or USB-C connector for your host; the step often missed is ensuring the host port actually supports USB 3.2 Gen 2 to reach 1050MB/s read.
