addlink today announced the launch of the new portable SSD that features read and write speeds up to 1,050 MB/s and 1000 MB/s via USB 3.2 Gen2 (10 Gbps). The P20 Portable SSD uses a USB 3.2 Gen2 interface with a USB Type-C connector. The maximum sequential read/write speed can reach up to 1050/1000 MB/s, which is nearly 10 times faster than traditional USB 3.2 Gen2 portable hard disk. Also, it is completely backward compatible with USB 3.1/3.0/2.0/1.1 interface.

Inside the P20 is an addlink M.2 NVMe Gen3 x4 2280 TLC SSD. addlink is in the use of mature and proven 3D TLC flash in the drive (Compared to the QLC NAND used in other brand portable SSD) for better endurance and performance to assists with handling heavier data. The USB to M.2 SSD bridge chip is the latest Realtek PCIe/SATA to USB combo bridge (Realtek RTL9210B). It could barely hit 10 Gbps.



Sleek, Durable, and Compact Metal Casing
The P20 is including higher 512 GB, 1 TB, and 2 TB capacities with much lighter weight (58 g) and smaller dimensions (10.2x3.3x1.1 cm)

Aluminium shell and cooling fin cover for heat dissipation design. To stay cool for reliable data transfer. Unlike HDDs, P20 SSD has no moving parts, so it is more shock and vibration resistance and has completely silent operation.

The included pouch not only prevents the P20 from scratching, but also makes it easy to store the drive and cables.

Simply Plug & Play. Universal Compatibility
The P20 fits all USB PC, laptops, tablet, and gaming consoles. Simply plug and play. Work without drivers on Windows, Mac, and Android OS.

It supplied with two cables, a USB Type-C to USB Type-C (USB3.2 Gen2), and a USB Type-C to USB Type-A (USB3.2 Gen2). With the included cables, P20 is not only compatible with most computers and laptops, but also can be used the new generation of high-speed USB 3.2 Gen2 (10 Gbps) interface.

Nothing to apologize for. The USB-IF team that agreed to this naming should have been relieved of their duties long, long ago. I mean, caving to OEMs who don't want their products to look old because they can't say they have the newest, fastest port, and instead just giving everything the new naming despite being the same old thing? That is gross incompetence bordering on corruption - the entire point of a standards body is to make technically sound, useful and understandable standards, after all.

USB 4 is already here. Sadly it's also a mess - though slightly less of one. But there are USB 4 ports with wildly varying capabilities.
