> 24 hourChecked speed of a 1TB drive using TB3 ports on 2 computers, different cables and ports. Used Backmagic and AJA test. All were tests showed about 1000-1300 MB/s Write and 1900-2500 MB/s Read. A Fantom 1TB using the same computer and TB3 ports and cable consistently has 2400 MB/s Write 2600 MB/s Read. Tests were performed on newly formatted drives and then with data on drives. Considering ordering another OWC to compare. I selected OWC based on past good experiences.

> 24 hourJust arrived, & this is my initial impression. It seemed like 10Gb was copied before I connected it to my MacBook Air! Too bad SSD’s are still so expensive.

> 24 hourVery fast. Doesnt seem to thermal throttle much if any at all. Build quality is best u can get. Very solid piece of metal.

> 24 hourHeard about these external hard drives on some youtube channels i subscribe too and they suggested them. after some research and to see if they will go well with my new iMac and what i do (gaming and video/photo work), it was def right for me! crazy that its so small and not head and you can just simply plug in your computer and youre all set to go. i did test to run games of it and it ran smoothly and no lag. it loaded just as fast as if i loaded the game from my computer internally. though now i have my games on the actual computer to play of on but should you need to run off an external hard drive, its the go to external hard drive. As for photo and video editing i didnt notice any lag or anything. it ran smoothly and was able to edit my works while on it since i didnt want to fill up my internal hard drive. may get another one for something specific or to just get a new external hard drive to back up on

> 24 hourHave tried using drive as a backup for my MacPro and it either will not connect and show as available or spontaneously disconnects with a message that its been disconnected unsafely. This without being touched. Tech support wants me to try it with a different machine or different cable, but didnt offer to send said cable. Since it has a 3 yr warranty, Im trying to return it for a refund.

> 24 hourMy only negative is its expensive. Running M1 Mac 2021 Setup was a breeze. I have tried other SSDS drives with little success. I didnt give five stars because it is only 1 TB and its heavy. Saying that, its really built well. If you can afford it, I feel its still the best SSD to buy. I use it for back up on Time machine on my Mac

> 24 hourFast with the M1 MacBook Air and the efficient cooling guarantees it won’t overheat and slow down Unlike other external SSDs. Dual Thunderport 3 / USBC chipsets assure compatibility with most devices, unlike TP3 only chipsets which don’t play nice with USBC

> 24 hourMy internal fusion drive (iMac, 2017) was failing a nd I didnt want to scrap an otherwise fully functional computer nor did I want to go through the hassle of opening it up and replacing the internal drive. So I copied my system over to the Envoy Pro and the results are amazing. Fast boot and performance all around. Totally satisfied.

> 24 hourIf you’re like me and edit videos off of an external hard drive you want speed and reliability! I’m currently editing multiple videos a week and this device has been great for me. I’m currently editing A7SIII footage on FCP and it works with zero issue. The only problem I have with it is the price. Wish I could have gotten 2TB for the price paid for 1TB but that’s tech for you. Highly recommended
