The X10 Pro comes in a small, silver and blue box. Along with a picture of the drive, the packaging advertises a number of its key features including its 2TB capacity, transfer speeds, dust and water resistance, and password protection. Inside the box, you'll find the X10 Pro, a USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 USB-C cable and a small, multilingual quick-start guide.
Physical Features:
The X10 Pro is one of the smallest portable SSDs to come through the 'Labs. Measuring 65 x 50 x 10mm and weighing in at a mere 42g, the drive fits comfortably in the palm of a hand as well as your pocket.
Despite being compact and lightweight, the X10 Pro is very well constructed. The body of the drive is made out of anodized aluminum and is covered by a nice looking black finish. The X10 Pro also has a rubberized soft touch base as well as an integrated lanyard hole with a built-in activity light.
The X10 Pro's USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 Type-C port is located on the end of the drive opposite that of the lanyard hole. This interface transfers data and provides power for the device.
If you were to crack the X10 Pro open, you'd find Silicon Motion's SM2320 controller. Designed for use in portable SSDs, this DRAM-less controller solution features an on-chip USB 3.2 Gen 2 interface as well as four NAND flash channels. The SM2320 also includes Silicon Motion's NANDXtend ECC end-to-end data path protection and supports up to 4TB of capacity using the latest TLC and QLC NAND. In this case, the X10 Pro is equipped with Micron's 176L 3D TLC NAND flash.
