With a 54% discount, the 4 TB Crucial X8 portable SSD can be acquired for a wallet-friendly US$219.99 via Amazon. However, those who are happy with less storage and a lower price tag can go for the 2 TB version, labeled CT2000X8SSD9 and currently available for US$114.99 instead of US$219.99, thanks to a 48% discount.
Advertised as a PC and Mac-compatible storage accessory, the Crucial X8 also works with Chromebooks, Linux laptops and desktops, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One consoles, as well as other devices that use USB-C 3.1 Gen2 and USB-A connectors. This portable SSD features a durable design that is guaranteed to withstand drops up to 7.5 feet, extreme temperatures, dust, shocks, and vibration. Sadly, there is no waterproofing, so any contact with liquids should be avoided.
A very popular product family on Amazon, the Crucial X8 lineup received no less than 10,292 user reviews so far. The result of these reviews is a 4.6/5 rating, with 80% 5/5 scores and 11% 4/5-star assessments.

In my early school days, I hated writing and having to make up stories. A decade later, I started to enjoy it. Since then, I published a few offline articles and then I moved to the online space, where I contributed to major websites that are still present online as of 2021 such as Softpedia, Brothersoft, Download3000, but I also wrote for multiple blogs that have disappeared over the years. I’ve been riding with the Notebookcheck crew since 2013 and I am not planning to leave it anytime soon. In love with good mechanical keyboards, vinyl and tape sound, but also smartphones, streaming services, and digital art.
