Speedy High-Capacity SSD Drives

The Rapid SSD Works with Both Computers and Smartphones

— May 14, 2021 — Tech
The Rapid SSD is a two terabyte solid-state drive that has an interchangeable USB connection for compatibility with many different devices.

The portable Rapid SSD, similar in size to a thumb drive and no taller than a credit card, comes equipped with cutting-edge data transfer technology that allows the device to reach upload speeds of 550 MB/s–four times faster than a typical hard drive–and download speeds of 570 MB/s.

The travel-ready Rapid SSD is made with lightweight, durable materials that protect it from dust and sand. The storage accessory can be plugged into almost any device through the inclusion of Apple Lightning, USB Type-C, and standard USB connectors. Because of this convenient compatibility feature, the device is ideal for on-the-go consumers, from casual travelers to dedicated photographers. The Rapid SSD can be purchased through Rapid Team's already-funded IndieGoGo campaign.
