Earlier this year, ADATA launched its latest external SSD, the Elite SE880. This pocket-sized, portable drive is powered by Silicon Motion's SM2320 controller and is available with up to 1TB of 3D TLC NAND flash. The Elite SE880 supports USB 3.2 Gen2 x2, is equipped with a Type-C port and is capable of delivering transmission speeds of 20 Gb/s. This is two times faster than USB 3.2 Gen 2x1 and four times faster than USB 3.2 Gen 1x1. This allows the drive to transfer data at speeds up to 2,000 MB/s, which is roughly twenty times faster than ordinary external hard drives. To top it all off, the Elite SE880 works with Windows, Mac, Linux and Android as well as many of the latest gaming consoles and is covered by a 5-year warranty.
The Elite SE880 is available in 500GB and 1TB capacities. For this review, ADATA sent us the 1TB version of the drive which is capable of reading and writing at up to 2,000 MB/s.
