An external SSD is a great way to extend your image or video storage capacity and keep your laptop’s performance up when you’re away from home or the studio, and the Drive Mobile SSD from G-Technology is a great choice. It’s available in 500GB, 1TB or 2TB and is ruggedised to IP67 for water and dust resistance. It can also survive a 3m drop or being crushed by a weight of 1,000lb to keep your files safe.

And with transfer speeds of up to 560MB/s, you’re not kept hanging around while you store images. For instance, we were able to write over 10GB of images to it in under 25 seconds when it was connected via the USB 3.0 port of a 2014 MacBook Pro. Those same files then took around 55 seconds to write to a MacBook when connected via the supplied USB-C cable. That’s impressively fast.
