This USB-C flash drive leverages the USB 3.2 Gen 1 standard, delivering read speeds of up to 400MB/s. This allows for swift data transfers, enabling users to move a 4GB 4K video file in just 9 seconds.

The drive features a sleek and stylish design with a streamlined body for comfortable handling. It comes in two color options – Aurora Blue and Mystic Black.
More importantly, the drive prioritizes durability. Samsung touts its water resistance, shock resistance, magnet resistance, ability to withstand extreme temperatures, and X-ray protection. This ensures users can carry their data with peace of mind, even in harsh environments. The product is further backed by a five-year limited warranty.
The USB-C interface ensures seamless plug-and-play functionality with various USB-C devices, including laptops, tablets, smartphones, and cameras.
Samsung also includes its Magician software with the drive. This software allows users to verify product authenticity, monitor the drive’s health, and benchmark its performance. The software is compatible with both Windows and macOS operating systems.
