Silicon Power is a relatively new name in the storage industry. Founded in 2003 by a group of professionals specializing in international business, global marketing and technical engineering, the company has already established itself as one of Taiwan's top manufacturers. With an eye for attractive and versatile design, Silicon Power has built its brand around the concept that its customers deserve products that represent who they are in life and mirror their personality. The end result is a variety of uniquely designed storage products including USB flash drives, memory cards and solid-state drives (SSD).

One of the latest additions to Silicon Power's family of portable SSDs is the MS70. Designed with content-creators, mobile professionals and gamers in mind, this lightweight, pocket-sized drive features an all-metal body for extra durability as well as a rubber cap that protects the connector when not in use. On the inside, the MS70 is equipped with up to 2TB of NAND flash along with a USB 3.2 Gen 2 (10Gb/s) Type-A interface that will allow you to copy a 30-minute 4K video to your computer in under 28 seconds. To top it all off, the MS70 works with Windows, Mac OS X, Linux, Android and iOS and is covered by a 5-year warranty.

The MS70 is available in 250GB, 500GB, 1TB and 2TB capacities. For this review, Silicon Power sent us the 2TB version of the drive which is capable of delivering up to 1,050 MB/s sequential read and 850 MB/s sequential write speeds.
