- Ergonomic design
- Good everyday performance
- Favourable for an external SSD
- Performance drops when the cache is empty
The Crucial X6 Portable SSD offers solid value for money. There are much faster USB and Thunderbolt drives, but the Crucial X6 combines good performance and good design for an attractive price. The Crucial model is also ideal to take with you thanks to its compact dimensions. How many drives can you fit so comfortably in your pocket?
This test report belongs to a different type: X6 (2000 GB)
They are small, robust and fast: SSD hard drives offer additional storage space for documents, photos and other data. We had 40 external SSD hard drives tested. 27 were awarded the test quality rating of Good. But it's worth taking a look at the details: We discovered significant differences in price and maximum achievable speed...

- very fast
- currently somewhat expensive
- not resistant to permanent loads
Crucial's X6 Portable SSD is the only SSD in this comparison that works according to the faster USB 3.2 Gen 2. The measurements revealed some differences to the Marvel Xtreme M80, which uses the same controller. When reading large files, the X6 achieved just under 1 GByte/s, and when writing, our measured value is even slightly higher; when writing completely, however, the X6 is around 30 per cent...
Good70/100
- Sleek, compact, and light design
- Responsive performance within the cache and fast to recover
- Lacks an activity light
- Lacks USB-C to USB-A adapter
- Lacks hardware-based AES 256-bit encryption
- Slow after cache write is exhausted during sustained workloads
Crucial's X6 is an affordable and very portable USB Type-C SSD that dishes out fast and responsive performance, but its relatively small cache results in reduced performance during larger sustained data transfers.

Good61/100
- Suitable for Windows, Mac-OS and Android
- Drop-proof up to a height of 2 metres
- Little heating under load
- USB-A adapter optional
- Only 3 years warranty
An external SATA SSD in a handy format whose strength lies in reading. The purchase price is quite fair in view of the capacity.
