The cheapest 2TB external SSD ever costs less an equivalent internal SSD, reaches speeds of 1GB/s and I can’t see a catch

The Patriot Transporter 2TB external portable SSD is currently available on Amazon for $87.99, offering read/write speeds of up to 1GB/s, which is twice as fast as similarly priced internal SATA SSDs. While still more expensive than traditional 2TB portable hard disk drives, the price difference has decreased significantly. The high speeds of the Transporter make it a compelling option for users with demanding workloads, outperforming popular HDD options like WD My Passport and Seagate Backup Plus. Furthermore, SSDs are more durable than HDDs due to solid-state memory, making them a more robust choice for external storage. Additionally, a USB-C portable SSD can be easily connected to smartphones and tablets with the same port, a feature not possible with HDDs.
