Pioneer 240GB Type-C External SSD

The Pioneer APS-XS02-240 is a 240 GB portable solid-state drive built for users who need reliable, high-speed storage they can carry in a pocket. Connecting via a USB-C Gen2 interface, the drive delivers sequential read speeds of up to 480 MB/s and sequential write speeds of up to 400 MB/s — a significant step up from conventional portable hard drives and enough throughput to transfer a full HD film in under a minute under ideal conditions. At 29.5 grams and measuring just 65 × 45 × 10.5 mm, the APS-XS02-240 is one of the lighter portable SSDs in its class. Its compact footprint means it slips easily into a shirt pocket or laptop bag without adding noticeable bulk to your carry. The drive is bus-powered entirely through its USB-C cable, so there is no need for a separate power adapter or wall outlet — an advantage when travelling or working from a café. The APS-XS02-240 is compatible with Windows 7 or later and macOS X 10.6 or later, making it a practical companion for both operating environments without requiring additional drivers for standard file-transfer tasks. Pioneer includes a USB-C to USB-C cable and a USB-A to USB-C adapter in the box, so the drive connects to modern laptops with USB-C ports as well as older machines and desktop systems equipped only with USB-A ports. Pioneer backs the APS-XS02-240 with a 3-year warranty, which is consistent with what competing portable SSD brands offer in this price segment.
