Kioxia Exceria Plus G2 1TB Portable SSD

KIOXIA EXCERIA PLUS G2 Portable SSD 1TB  USB-C USB 3.2 Gen2, Up to 1050MB/s

If you want a portable SSD that feels genuinely “everyday carry” (not a chunky external drive), the KIOXIA EXCERIA PLUS G2 1TB hits the sweet spot: fast enough for demanding workflows, compact enough to disappear into a pocket, and tough enough for real-world travel.

At its core is a USB 3.2 Gen2, USB-C connection designed for high-throughput transfers—ideal for moving large folders of RAW photos, project files, or video footage without the sluggishness of older external storage. The drive is rated at up to 1,050MB/s read and 1,000MB/s write, with performance depending on the host device (USB 3.2 Gen2 support and UASP enabled are key).

The build is where the G2 stands out: a rounded aluminium housing helps with heat dissipation under heavier workloads, and the drive has no moving parts, making it better suited to being tossed into a laptop bag than traditional external hard drives. It’s also engineered for peace of mind with MIL-STD-810H 516.8 procedure IV drop-test compliance (KIOXIA notes functional survival after 26 drops from 122cm onto a steel plate on reinforced concrete).

Compatibility is broad and modern: it’s intended for desktops, laptops, tablets, mobile phones, and game consoles, including Windows 10/11, macOS Big Sur through Sonoma, Android 11–14, iOS/iPadOS 17 for USB-C devices, plus PS4/PS5 and Xbox Series X/S (firmware dependent; KIOXIA lists compatibility status as of 16 Oct 2024). To make setup painless, the box includes two cables—USB-C to USB-A and USB-C to USB-C—so you can connect to both newer and legacy ports immediately.

For users who carry sensitive files, KIOXIA’s SSD Utility supports password protection compliant with TCG Opal 2.01 and 256-bit AES hardware encryption.
