Kingston XS2000 USB 3.2 Gen 2 x 2 external SSD review

An undoubtedly fast external SSD but was it wise to release it with USB 4.0 just around the corner?

Fantastic speed if you have a compatible system ; 5-year warranty ; Good value for money ; Rugged with IP55 rating ; Very solidly built

Requires the right hardware to maintain USP ; Expensive if you just want plenty of fast storage

20Gbps performance at 10Gbps prices

+ Compact and light ; + Responsive performance ; + IP55 rated with rubber sleeve ; + 5-year warranty

- Small but very thick ; - Lacks encryption ; - Slow and inconsistent sustained write speeds

Kingston’s XS2000 is a responsive portable SSD that delivers up to 2 GBps of throughput and decent pricing, but it lacks the sustained write performance of more capable DRAM-equipped SSDs.
