The Corsair EX100U 1 TB external SSD goes under 150 € at Amazon i.e. a drop of about 29% on the price usually observed. It is currently the best product in our comparison.

We tested the Corsair EX100U in a 2 TB version, which has the same characteristics as the 1 TB models. We therefore refer you to the full test of this excellent SSD to find out more.

Corsair’s 1TB EX100U is identical in all respects to the 2TB model we tested. It is without a doubt one of the best portable SSDs around. It not only offers a very compact design that makes it easy to transport, but also excellent write and read speeds. In short, everything you expect from a portable SSD. It just lacks a USB-A adapter for added versatility.

Points forts

Ultra light and compact.
Excellent flow rates.
Aluminum case.

Weak points

No USB-A adapter.
Difficult to exceed 1000 MB/s in practice.

NB: The reported price drop is calculated by comparing the lowest price of the day with the average of the lowest prices charged by all merchants for the product last month, with security rules to exclude prices from shops whose the VAT policy is not clear (known as “grey” shops, typically in the case of imports from China).

An alternative

The bet has paid off for WD, which more or less doubles the transfer speeds of its My Passport compared to the previous generation. The new design is neat and still compact. In addition, the write and read speeds are excellent, which makes the My Passport 1 TB a portable SSD of choice.
