Corsair EX400U Drops to $243.05: A Rare Opportunity for Fast Portable Storage

A 1TB USB4 portable external SSD from Corsair has dropped in price on Amazon to $243.05, representing a 54% cut off its list price of $529.99.

This is a rare opportunity for those who need fast and portable storage for their work, particularly video editors and photographers who rely on moving large files quickly between machines.

The Corsair EX400U drive uses USB4 to achieve sequential read speeds up to 4,000MB/sec and write speeds up to 3,500MB/sec. It connects via USB Type-C, Thunderbolt 4, and newer standards for broad compatibility across Windows PCs and Macs, and supports MagSafe for easy attachment.

It's worth noting that the full 4,000MB/sec throughput requires a USB4 connection, so those with older USB-C ports may not experience the full speed benefit. However, at $243.05, this drive is a strong buy for creators who need portable speed today.
