speeds in a portable, no-fuss design. It's one of the best we've ever tested when it comes to speed and storage space.

And right now, the Corsair EX400U 2TB is down to $300 (was $330) at Best Buy as part of the Tech Fest sale that ends on Sunday.

This capacity gives you plenty of room for large files, backups, and creative projects. Its a great fit for anyone working with high-resolution media or large datasets on a regular basis. Today's top SSD deal Save $30 Corsair EX400U 2TB USB4 portable SSD : was $330 now $300 at Best Buy This compact external SSD offers 2TB of fast storage with USB4 speeds up to 4000MB/s read and 3600MB/s write. Its lightweight, powered by USB-C, and ideal for quickly transferring large files, backing up data, or expanding storage for work and creative projects. Read more Read less View Deal In our review , storage expert Mark raved over it, saying it "delivers the performance Id hoped for. Such a massive leap in speed over Gen 2 or even Gen2x2 that its impossible to ignore."

Those read speeds reach up to 4000MB/s, while write speeds hit up to
3600MB/s, so file transfers feel quick and efficient. Moving large video
files or project folders wont slow you down.

The USB4 interface keeps things fast and future-ready, while the USB-C connection makes it easy to use with modern laptops, tablets, and other devices.

Its small size and lightweight build make it easy to carry in a pocket or
bag. At under an ounce, its barely noticeable when youre on the move.

Power comes directly from the USB port, so theres no need for an external adapter or extra cables. That simplicity makes it ideal for travel or quick setups.

As well as Windows and macOS, it works with Apple iOS and iPadOS devices, providing flexibility if youre moving files between different platforms.

For anyone needing fast, portable storage without extra bulk, this is a clean and capable option that keeps up with demanding workflows.

As we noted in our review, however: "Without a USB 4.0 port, this is an entirely pointless purchase. It will work with USB 3.2, but only at much slower speeds."
