Built to Ride on Your Phone
The Elite Magnet is designed to attach to the back of a phone: it holds on magnetically, and Hiksemi includes a magnetic ring for phones without built-in magnets, plus a USB-C to USB-C cable. That makes it handy for offloading large photo and video files from a USB-C phone, then plugging into a laptop to edit. It works with Windows, macOS, Linux, Android and iOS, and Hiksemi backs it with a five-year warranty, longer than the three years common on portable SSDs.
Getting the Full 2000MB/s
The headline speed needs a USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 (20Gbps) port, which few laptops have and Macs do not support. On a standard 10Gbps USB-C port, expect roughly half, around 1000MB/s, which is still about twice a SATA-class portable drive. On older 5Gbps ports and phones with slower USB, the port sets the limit, not the drive. The shell is plastic rather than aluminium, so it is light but not as rugged as a metal-bodied drive.
