Silicon Power DS72 1TB Portable SSD
1. Introduction
The need for fast external and internal storage never ends and with today's demand for digital content, users and creators are looking for new ways to transfer their precious data. While online storage gets its role and market share, local external storage solutions will always be here to give us free space and portability. Many different solutions are currently sold to the market and Silicon Power, another great memory manufacturer introduced back in early November 2023 a new high-speed portable SSD, the DS72 series. The new external Portable SSD promises blazing-fast read and write speeds with a USB 3.2 Gen 2 interface to handle large files, high-resolution media, and resource-intensive software effortlessly. Silicon Power promises a 30-minute 4K video in under 28 seconds!
The DS72 not only delivers high read and write speeds up to 1,050MB/s and 850MB/s as well as ample capacities up to 1TB – it offers seamless versatility by featuring both Type-A and Type-C connectors to accommodate a wide range of user scenarios. Creators can effortlessly share a presentation from a MacBook with a Windows laptop using the Type-C connector, and then plug it into a public computer with a Type-A port to access the files without any compatibility issues. Photographers and videographers can easily transfer high-resolution media from a Type-C-equipped camera to a Type-A laptop or vice versa, simplifying the workflow and reducing downtime during shoots or editing sessions. Mobile professionals who use smartphones, tablets, and laptops with varying USB ports can rely on the DS72 to quickly access files on all of their devices without carrying multiple adapters or cables.
The DS72 redefines convenience and efficiency, equipping creators and mobile professionals with the ability to harness their full potential by overcoming the constraints of sluggish data transfers or compatibility issues. On top of that, the all-metal bodies provide extra durability, while the detachable rubber caps protect the connectors when not in use. Silicon Power continues to drive innovation with the release of these two new high-speed portable SSDs, delivering seamless and high-performance storage for the creative minds of today and tomorrow.
