Rugged portable SSD for mobile backups

The Transcend ESD380C is a 4TB external solid-state drive built for users who need fast, durable storage that travels safely in a bag or pocket. Its aluminium and silicone casing meets military drop-test standards, protecting data during daily transport and outdoor use. Creative professionals and field workers can back up large media libraries without worrying about physical shocks.

USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 Type-C connection frees up bandwidth

The drive uses a USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 Type-C interface with UASP support, delivering up to 2000MB/s read and write speeds when paired with a compatible host port. This high-throughput link lets you move 4K video and high-resolution image batches quickly, reducing wait times during on-site offloads. No external power adapter is required, so the drive draws power directly from the host device.

Sustained transfers stay fast under load

The rugged enclosure acts as a heatsink, helping the controller maintain its 2000MB/s peak during extended write sessions such as full-drive backups or video ingest. Thermal throttling is minimised, so performance remains consistent across large, sequential workloads rather than dropping after a short burst. The five-year manufacturer warranty reflects confidence in long-term reliability.

Questions about this item

At what speed does the USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 interface cap sustained transfers on the ESD380C?

The drive is rated for up to 2000 MB/s read and write over USB 3.2 Gen 2x2, so sustained throughput will not exceed that figure.

How much heat or fan noise does the ESD380C produce during all-day operation?

The aluminium and silicone casing passively dissipates heat with no moving parts, so the drive runs silently and stays warm but not hot under continuous load.

Which host port and cable are required to reach the 2000 MB/s rating on the ESD380C?

A USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 Type-C port and a Gen 2x2-certified Type-C cable are needed; slower ports will work but limit speed to their own maximum.
