Lexar Dual Drive Portable SSD D70E focuses on maximum mobility
The Lexar Dual Drive Portable SSD D70E has been specially developed for mobile use. Instead of additional cables or adapters, the SSD integrates two connectors directly into its housing. This makes it easy to transfer data between different devices without having to carry additional accessories. This concept should provide significantly more flexibility, especially when traveling.
Lexar has opted for a robust metal housing that is compact enough to fit easily into any pocket. Protective covers for the connections are also designed to protect the SSD from dust and damage. The design is complemented by an integrated loop for carrying straps or key rings.
The cross-device use is particularly practical. The SSD supports Windows and Mac computers as well as Android and iOS devices. This makes the D70E suitable not only as a classic backup drive, but also as a mobile storage extension for smartphones or tablets with limited internal storage.
For added convenience, Lexar integrates automatic backup functions via its own app. Photos, videos and even iPhone Live Photos can be backed up directly. The SSD is therefore not only aimed at professional users, but also at content creators and mobile users who regularly manage large amounts of data or exchange it between several devices.
High speeds and flexible storage sizes for modern workflows
In addition to mobility, the transfer speed is one of the greatest strengths of the Lexar Dual Drive Portable SSD D70E. According to the manufacturer, the drive achieves read speeds of up to 2,000 MB/s and write speeds of up to 1,800 MB/s via USB-C. This means that even larger video or project files can be transferred significantly faster than with conventional external SSDs or USB sticks.
The speeds also remain comparatively high via USB-A. According to Lexar, up to 1,000 MB/s for reading and 900 MB/s for writing are possible here. This makes the SSD ideal for modern workflows with high-resolution media content or extensive backups.
The combination of high performance and compact design could be particularly interesting for users who regularly switch between several devices. Especially when working with smartphones, tablets and notebooks, the usual adapter effort is almost completely eliminated.
Lexar offers the Portable SSD D70E in several storage sizes. Variants with 512 GB, 1 TB and 2 TB are available at market launch. This means that the drive covers both simple backup requirements and larger media libraries or professional projects.
Conclusion
The Lexar Dual Drive Portable SSD D70E combines high transfer speeds with a particularly mobile design that is suitable for everyday use. Thanks to its dual connection, automatic backup functions and broad platform support, the SSD is suitable for both content creators and users who want to back up data quickly and easily on the go. The SSD is now available with 512 GB from 129.99 euros. The 1 TB version costs 199.99 euros, while the 2 TB model costs 299.99 euros.
