Customer Reviews, including Product Star Ratings help customers to learn more about the product and decide whether it is the right product for them.

- Reviewed in the United States on August 5, 2023Capacity: 1TBStyle: Envoy Pro MiniVerified PurchaseSimply put it is fast, small and portable and seems to work well with my ps5 and m1 MacBook Pro after I set it up.
The included Mac app likely isn’t compatible with apple silicon or modern macOS versions as far as I could tell and that’s not an issue if you know how to format a drive.
On current macOS that can be done with opening the Apple Disk Utility app with the flash drive connected.
It will show up on the left but it will be reporting only 8Gb.
For some very strange reasons OWC thought that using a custom app to setup the drive as a mandatory step to ensure a good setup.
That’s ok macOS disk utility can fix it by showing all volumes under the view menu in the top menu bar.
Then you can select the main drive in the left and erase it as exfat.
After that the full capacity of the drive is made available in my case 1TB
Note: this will erase anything already stored on the drive so proceed with your own caution.
After that the drive has been fast and performant for transferring video captures to my Mac from my ps5.
Hope this helps and I just to say it is a nice drive with a decent 3 year warranty and I think they could have made its setup easier but it’s not too hard to fix.

I assume it's working well. I bought it exclusively to run time machine on my mac. My mac has stopped bugging me about backups so I assume it's working well.
- Reviewed in the United States on December 19, 2024Capacity: 480GBStyle: Envoy Pro MiniVerified PurchaseI bought this portable SSD to transfer files between my Mac and PC and to store large amount of data and pictures. It works beautifully and is ultra fast. I did have to change the file system from APFS to exFAT, but the software installed on the drive did it automatically for me.
- Reviewed in the United States on November 4, 2023Capacity: 1TBStyle: Envoy Pro MiniVerified PurchaseI have always been happy with the quality of OWC products and this is the same. Its a durable build and it’s nice having both USB A and USB C in one device. I read other reviews about not getting full capacity but that is from users that did not do a full format on the drive. There is no need to install or use anything shipped on the drive and I always do a full format on new external drives which I did the same with this one and it immediately gave me the full 1 TB advertised capacity. It gives me the convenience of a thumb drive with the capacity and speed of a SSD, a good purchase overall.

1.0 out of 5 stars Decent speed, broke off on the first attempt to unplug from Pioneer DJ controller
Capacity: 1TBStyle: Envoy Pro MiniVerified PurchaseSpeed test results (empty drive, ex fat format)
Update 1/24:
Used this with a brand-new Pioneer DJ controller, and on the first unplug, the metal casing detached from the PCB. Sure, it shows a strong USB-A grip, but how does this even happen on a brand-new drive? The issue seems to be with the plastic gasket, which relies on two tiny 0.5mm teeth to hold the PCB in the aluminum enclosure—clearly a design flaw. Love the speed and concept, but must return/replace. Added image.

3.0 out of 5 stars Connettore corto per iPhone 15 Pro Max con custodia.
Capacity: 480GBStyle: Envoy Pro MiniVerified PurchaseAvevo molta aspettativa su questo prodotto. Sono contento delle prestazioni, ma, sfortunatamente non posso usarlo senza una prolunga sul iPhone 15 Pro Max con custodia ( che è la ragione principale dell’acquisto). Il connettore USB-c infatti è troppo corto.

Capacity: 2TBStyle: Envoy Pro ElektronVerified PurchaseThis drive is terrible. Refuses to show up on several computers, tried original and other cables. Sometimes it shows up, most often it does not. Very disappointing for such an expensive product. Tried various Windows pc's, both Win10 and Win11. Totally unreliable. Can't even reformat the drive. Data stored on it are not retrievable anymore ;-(
