KINGSTON XS1000 1TB Gen2 External Solid State Drive ( SSD )

The Kingston XS1000 1TB External SSD is a palm-sized portable storage solution built for users who need fast, reliable data access on the go. Connecting via USB 3.2 Gen 2, it delivers sequential read speeds of up to 1,050 MB/s and write speeds of up to 1,000 MB/s, making large file transfers — whether raw photos, 4K video footage, or project archives — noticeably quicker than traditional portable hard drives. At just 28.7 grams and measuring 69.54 × 32.58 × 13.5 mm, the XS1000 slips easily into a pocket or bag. Its metal and plastic casing strikes a balance between durability and a lightweight profile, and the all-black finish keeps the aesthetic clean and professional. The drive ships with a 12-inch USB-C to USB-A cable, so you can connect straight away to both modern USB-C ports and legacy USB-A ports without hunting for an adapter. Compatibility spans a wide range of platforms: Windows 11 and 10, macOS 10.15.x and later, Linux 4.4.x and later, Chrome OS, Android, and iOS/iPadOS 13 and above. Whether you are backing up a MacBook, extending storage on an Android tablet, or archiving project files from a Windows workstation, the XS1000 works without additional drivers or software. Kingston backs the drive with a limited 5-year warranty and free technical support, providing meaningful long-term assurance for both personal and professional use.
