Lexar has introduced a new addition to its storage solutions with the Lexar SL500 Mobile SSD, now available in a 2TB version. This compact, high-speed portable SSD is designed to cater to the needs of professionals and everyday users alike, offering a blend of performance, portability, and security. Let’s check out the key specs of this SSD. The Lexar SL500 boasts a remarkably thin profile, measuring just 4.88mm in thickness and weighing a mere 43g, making it as portable as a bank card and as light as the first-generation AirPods. Despite its small size, it does not compromise on performance.
It features dual USB 3.2 Gen2 interfaces
and is equipped with GoodDie chips, ensuring a maximum read speed of up to
2000MB/s and a write speed of up to 1800MB/s. This speed is approximately twice
as fast as regular portable SSDs and significantly quicker than traditional
SATA HDDs, providing users with efficient work and data transfer capabilities.
The SSD is housed in a durable metal
casing and comes with 256-bit AES encryption software for enhanced data
security. Users can create password-protected data safes on the drive, allowing
them to hide and encrypt specific files. This feature is particularly useful
for protecting private data. In terms of compatibility, the Lexar SL500 is
designed to work seamlessly with a variety of devices. It supports external
recording and is directly connectable to iPhone 15 Pro/Max, making it a handy
tool for content creators who need fast, reliable storage for large file
transfers. The device is also compatible with smartphones having Type-C ports,
laptops, cameras, and gaming consoles.
Lexar offers the SL500 in various storage
capacities ranging from 512GB to 4TB, catering to different storage needs. All
Lexar products undergo rigorous testing for durability and stability, ensuring
quality and reliability. Additionally, the company provides comprehensive
customer service, including worry-free returns, online technical support, and
national warranty services.
Lexar SL500 is available for pre-order in
China on JD.com at an initial price of 1069 Yuan (US$ 150), although the launch
price might vary.
