TEAMGROUP dropped the PD40, a tiny external SSD that weighs 22 grams and hits 4000 MB/s read speeds with 3500 MB/s writes through USB4 Type-C. The thing comes in 1TB, 2TB, and 4TB sizes and basically feels like carrying around a flash drive instead of a chunky external storage brick.
The drive has IP54 protection against dust and water, so you can toss it in a bag without babying it. They gave it rubberized grooves for grip, a little hanging loop, and a silicone cap to protect the port. The company backs it with a five-year warranty, which is pretty solid for portable storage that gets banged around during travel or field shoots.
