Our Pick

LaCie

LaCie Rugged SSD Portable 2TB
8.7/10

The 2TB non-Pro Rugged SSD keeps the iconic orange armor but doubles capacity. A frequent pick for outdoor photographers shooting medium-format RAW, where the IP67 rating matters more than the Pro model's Thunderbolt speeds, and the 950 MB/s USB-C is plenty fast.

ORICO UFSD Portable 1TB
7.4/10

A newer Amazon-direct Gen 2x2 portable from ORICO. Aggressive sale pricing, aluminum body, full 2000 MB/s rating -- but independent review reports are mixed on sustained writes after SLC cache exhaustion.
