Verbatim Pocket 1TB SSD
It also means you can score a tiny but powerful external solid-state drive for all your photos, videos, games and other digital files without having to overspend. With the dire global memory shortage pushing prices up on flash drives, SSDs, HDDs and more, we’d recommend taking advantage of this limited-time offer before it gets deleted.
While cloud storage is a great option, you never want to leave your precious files just floating around out there. Investing in external storage brings peace of mind that your family vacation photos and all the progress you’ve made in your latest gaming obsession are super secure.
With this Verbatim Pocket drive, you’ll get 1TB of space. One terabyte equals about 1,000GB, which is more than enough for years of memories. Consider it the little SSD that could, because despite its size, it packs read and write speeds up to 1,000 megabytes per second.
It’s compatible with most computers, including those running Windows and MacOS. Windows users get added protection via the included Nero Backup Software. The drive works via USB-C, so you can even plug directly to your smartphone, which makes it an excellent choice for travelers, content creators or anyone looking for added portability. Verbatim’s Pocket SSD is also a solid option for gamers, as it works with the PS5, Xbox and other consoles.
As the name suggests, the drive will easily fit in your pocket or backpack. It’s super compact, at less than 2 inches wide and less than an inch thick. For added convenience, it comes with a keyring and cable holder.
