As stylish as it is functional, Lexar’s new SL500. This ultra-thin, lightweight drive is small enough to hold in the palm of your hand, but boasts impressive capacities of up to a whopping 4TB!
The SL500 is crafted from a sleek aluminum unibody, making it a standout companion for any tech kit. But don’t let its good looks fool you – this drive is a powerhouse. With read speeds of up to 2,000 MB/s and write speeds of up to 1,800 MB/s, it can transfer files in a flash. That means you can quickly offload photos, videos, or other large files without having to wait around.
Lexar designed the SL500 to be versatile too. It works seamlessly with a wide range of devices, including laptops, cameras, gaming consoles, and even your smartphone (if it has a USB-C port). There’s even a special SL500 version with a magnetic assembly, designed specifically for use with iPhones 15 Pro and Pro Max. This variant lets you capture stunning ProRes 4K 60FPS video directly onto the drive, freeing up space on your phone and ensuring your footage is safe and secure.
Speaking of security, the SL500 comes pre-loaded with Lexar’s DataShield AES 256-bit encryption software. This military-grade encryption ensures your data stays private, even if the drive falls into the wrong hands.
Whether you’re a creative professional, a mobile gamer, or simply someone who needs to carry a lot of data, the Lexar SL500 ($180) is a great option. Add it to the kit right here.
