About this product
The Maxone Ultra Slim Portable External Hard Drive offers 500GB of storage in a charcoal grey aluminum enclosure. This 2.5-inch external hard drive is designed for portability, measuring 4.7"L x 3.3"W x 0.4"Th and weighing 155.5 grams. It features a USB 3.0 interface, with backward compatibility for USB 2.0, providing a data transfer rate of 5 Gigabits Per Second and a read speed of 625 Megabytes Per Second. It is compatible with PCs, laptops, Xbox One, and PlayStation 4, making it versatile for both storage and gaming.
Our take
This Maxone 500GB external drive hits a sweet spot for both storage and portability. The 500GB capacity is quite useful for game libraries on consoles like Xbox One and PS4, as well as for general PC backups. I'm particularly impressed by the aluminum enclosure, which feels robust and premium compared to typical plastic drives. The stated read speed of 625 MB/s and data transfer rate of 5 Gbps (which is essentially USB 3.0 speed) are solid for a mechanical drive. Its ultra-slim dimensions and light weight of 155.5 grams make it very travel-friendly. While it boasts good speeds for an HDD, it's important to remember it's not an SSD, so don't expect instant file access.
