Top reviews
Top reviews from the United States
There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
My only complaint is that it has an LED light that flashes continuously, even when idle. I stash it behind stuff on my desk so that it doesn't distract me.
- The size is great. It's super small and easily fits in my pockets. It can even fit into my wallet if needed.
- The terabyte of space is more than enough for me. It's pretty easy to make folders and organize my files. From pictures and videos.
- There aren't any slowdowns or choppyness. All the videos and images I put on uploaded almost instantly and kept the original definition.
- The SSD seems very well constructed. I'm always leaning on the side of caution so it would be rare that it would ever be in a position where it could be damaged in the first place, but the metal build is very nice.
A few negatives about the SSD include:
- There is no password protection like advertised. I'm also not sure if it includes the encryption.
- The program does not interface well with my on device gallery. To open files I have to use a file manager and select images one by one. Definitely something to keep in mind if you are using this as a gallery backup for something like photography.
- The included cable is nice, but it is somewhat of a hassle to use everytime I want to use the SSD. I wish there was an included case to hold everything together to things have no chance of getting lost.
I still think that this is a great SSD and will continue to use it. There are just somethings that aren't said in the advertising that should be taken into consideration before buying it
It floored me. The download speeds are blazingly fast. I have no way to measure them, but comparing it to a Samsung T7 and the SanDisk Extreme, although all advertised at at 1000 Mb/sec, this little thing downloads an order of magnitude faster.
I am using a MacBook Pro and this is the specially Mac formatted Crucial SSD version. The SanDisk was unreliable, would mount sometimes, not other times, and was of the slowest speeds. The Samsung is very reliable, slightly faster than SanDisk, but still of much slower speeds than this device. This device is far smaller than either, although all had the same 2 Tb capacity. This device has a footprint smaller than a credit card in both height and width (obviously not thickness). You could easily slide this into your pocket and not even feel it - smaller and less bulky than a car key.
The front appears to be aluminum, the back rubberized so it stays put. This is an important feature given its small size and weight to not accidentally lose it.
It comes with an indicator light - hard to see on the product images but hidden inside the lanyard mounting hole. This may sound silly but is important to me. Samsung has one, the SanDisk Extreme has not. That being the device that would not mount reliably, you never know what is going on without an indicator, I.e. is it still trying to mount or is it dead?No issue here with the Crucial device.
All devices are advertised to be shock, dust and moisture resistant. Obviously I am not about to test either.
Overall the Crucial X9 is the best SSD I have seen, especially for Macs, although they offer a generic not Mac specifically formatted version as well.
Highly recommended. Well done!

It's my main laptop work drive, so i t needs to work with no issues, nada...its just been great and im goign to buy 2 more. I had to dump all the samsungs, only 1 of 5 of them is still in use. I wish this was available before i bought those.
Now THIS...which is a better deal then the x10 that doesnt offer better performance...this is great. Its so light i literally have it taped to the laptop case. Feather light. Reviews are solid, even though this is one model behind the latest. I dont rely on amazon reviews, i go to the reliable pc review web sites- this ones legit good.
Wish list: I do wish it had a decent hook area integrated into the case like the sandisks/lexar models..ths thing is TINY so if its not attacked to a computer, its goign to get lost guaranteed...be careful. Maybe find a light silicone case to wrap around it so you can see it..its VERY small.
And the cord it comes with is very short also, matching the size of this tiny thing.
