512 GB portable storage

The Patriot Xporter Core provides 512 GB of capacity in a USB Type-A flash drive. It is suited to professionals and multimedia enthusiasts who need to carry large collections of documents, photos and videos. The drive works with Windows 11, 10, 8 and 7, Linux 2.4+ and Mac OSX 10.6+ without requiring a driver. A built-in strap hole helps prevent loss during transport.

Upgrading from slower or smaller drives

This drive replaces older USB 2.0 sticks or lower-capacity models that bottleneck file transfers. The USB 3.2 Gen 1 interface delivers read speeds up to 80 MB/s, making the jump worthwhile when moving multi-gigabyte media libraries or project folders. If your workflow stays within a few small documents, the extra speed and space may not be necessary.

Fits any USB-A port

Plug the drive directly into any USB Type-A port on a laptop, desktop or compatible peripheral. The open cover design protects the connector without a separate cap. Bus power eliminates the need for an external adapter. The compact form factor leaves adjacent ports accessible on tightly spaced hubs.
