Properly Modern Storage SolutionThe Kingston XS2000 Portable SSD is definitely one of the fastest and compact SSDs we have tested so far. I used the SSD with a variety of laptops, PCs, and I was even able to copy files at a high speed from the OnePlus 8...
Abstract: If you need speedy local storage for lots of files (say, music or movies you carry around, or all those pics and videos you collect on your phone or camera), you may want to consider a portable solid-state drive (SSD) rather than a portable hard drive. O...

Overall Performance, Diminutive size, Large capacity, Durability,
Needs USB 3.2 Gen 2 x2 compatible system to get the best performance, Lacks hardware encryption,
The last Kingston external drive we looked at was the latest member of the DataTraveler series - the DataTraveler Max. At the time we thought that drive was fast, but the XS2000 can show that drive a clean pair of heels as it carries a speed rating of 200...
Reasonably priced, Headline performance, Small and lightweight
Needs USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 for full speed, Limited SLC cache size, No USB Type-A adapter
Overall, there is plenty to like in the Kingston XS2000, especially for those lucky enough to have Gen 2x2 USB ports.Availability of that port is primarily the issue this product faces. Most systems don't have this port on them since many hardware makers...
Fantastic speed if you have a compatible system, 5-year warranty, Good value for money, Rugged with IP55 rating, Very solidly built
Requires the right hardware to maintain USP, Expensive if you just want plenty of fast storage
The Kingston XS2000 portable SSD has all the hallmarks of a successful product but we're still puzzled as to why the company chose to jump on the USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 bandwagon with USB 4.0 on the verge of going mainstream. Still you can't go wrong with it if...
As soon as the drive is plugged in, the drive quickly appears on the Mac OS desktop and is ready to use, When it comes to the XS2000 performance, it delivers on its promise of high-speed data transfer, with all image and video files transferring quickly f
Requires latest USB port, Premium price point
On first looking at and handling the Kingston XS2000 SSD, you are instantly hit with how small and light the drive is, especially considering its capacity. Then, once you start to use the drive and see the speeds, there really is very little not to like o...
High quality, Top performance, Available in capacities up to 2TB, 5-year warranty, Reasonable price
Nothing worth to mention,
The XS2000 2TB portable SSD is another well-designed product from Kingston. Everything from the package to the rubber sleeve is perfect, and the SSD itself is lightning fast. This product is highly recommended for all users who work directly on portable s...
Available in 500GB, 1TB and 2TB capacities, Lightweight, compact design, Silicon Motion SM2320 controller, Equipped with 3D TLC NAND, USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 interface, Excellent sequential read and write speeds, Water resistant, dust resistant and shockproof wit
Mediocre random read and write performance
With the XS2000, Kingston has shown us that good things do come in small packages. This pocket-sized, portable SSD is both solidly constructed and lightweight. In addition to its metal and plastic casing, the drive includes a removable rubber sleeve that...
Small form factor, Great speeds, Included rubber sleeve, Price
No encryption, No software
The Kingston XS2000 is only the second USB 3.2 gen 2×2 portable solid state drive that we've tested. While it was slightly slower than the ADATA SE900G the speeds were very close to the advertised speeds of 2000 MB/s. In CrystalDiskMark we saw read speeds...
The Kingston XS2000 series manages to bring a high-performance native UFD controller-based portable SSD in a compact and attractive package. The most attractive aspect, however, is the pricing structure. The 500GB SKU is priced at $85, the 1TB version is...
