512 GB external SSD for mobile users
The Orico portable SSD provides 512 GB of storage in a lightweight aluminium enclosure. A built-in hook lets you clip the drive to a belt loop or backpack strap so it stays secure while you move between work, travel or outdoor activities. It is aimed at anyone who needs fast, pocket-sized storage for phones, tablets and laptops.
Aluminium build with dual-head cable
The aluminium alloy body acts as a heatsink to keep performance steady during extended transfers. A single 2-in-1 cable ends in both USB-C and USB-A plugs, giving plug-and-play compatibility with Android, iOS, macOS, Windows and Linux devices without carrying extra adapters. The drive measures 5.19 by 1.33 by 0.74 inches and weighs 0.22 lb.
Sustained 1050 MB/s reads with silent operation
Sequential reads reach 1050 MB/s, letting you move a 1 GB file in roughly one second. With no moving parts the drive runs completely silent and draws minimal power from the host port, so battery life on phones and laptops is barely affected during backups or video offloads.

Questions about this item
What transfer speed does the USB 10 Gbps interface cap at in practice?
The drive reaches up to 1050 MB/s read speed, so the USB 10 Gbps link caps real-world throughput at that figure.
What physical clearance does the 5.19 x 1.33 x 0.74 in enclosure with hook need to fit?
It needs a slot at least 5.19 in long, 1.33 in wide and 0.74 in deep; the integrated hook adds a small protrusion for belt or strap attachment.
How is the drive installed, and what step do people miss?
Plug the supplied USB-C and USB-A cable into the host; the drive appears instantly with no driver install, but users often forget to eject it in the OS before unplugging.
