The CUSU P60 is an external Portable Solid State Drive (PSSD) positioned as a **high-speed, compact storage solution** for transferring large files, gaming libraries, and backing up data on the go. ### **Key Specifications** | Feature | Specification | | :--- | :--- | | **Interface** | USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 (Key feature) | | **Connection** | USB Type-C | | **Claimed Read/Write Speeds** | **Up to 2000 MB/s** (This is the theoretical maximum of the interface) | | **Capacities** | Typically 512GB, 1TB, 2TB, 4TB | | **Design** | Compact, lightweight, often with an aluminum shell for heat dissipation. | | **Included Cable** | USB Type-C to Type-C cable. A Type-C to Type-A adapter may be included. | | **Compatibility** | Windows, macOS, Android, Linux, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S | ### **Performance Analysis: Expectations vs. Reality** * **Claimed Speeds (2000 MB/s):** This speed is the maximum of the **USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 (20Gbps)** interface. **In real-world use, you will almost never hit this speed** with this drive. This is common for many budget-friendly brands. * **Real-World Speeds:** Expect sustained read/write speeds in the range of **900 MB/s to 1,500 MB/s**, depending on the following factors: * **The Type of Files:** A single large file (like a movie ISO) will transfer faster than a folder with thousands of small files (like a document library). * **The Host Port:** To get the fastest speeds, your computer **must have a USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 (20Gbps) port**. If you plug it into a standard USB 3.2 Gen 2 (10Gbps) port, speeds will be capped at around 1000 MB/s. Plugging it into a regular USB 3.0 (5Gbps) port will cap it at ~500 MB/s. * **Drive Components:** The actual NAND flash memory and controller inside the drive are the main determinants of speed, not just the interface. ### **Who is it for?** * **Budget-Conscious Gamers:** Someone who wants to expand their PS5 or Xbox storage with a fast-enough drive without paying for a top-tier Samsung T7 Shield or WD Black. * **Users with large file transfer needs:** Photographers, videographers, or students who need to move large projects and have a compatible USB-C port. * **General Use:** As a fast backup drive or for storing a large media library.
