Score: 95/100
Lexar Professional Go 1TB
Score: 84/100Rankings

The Crucial X10 Pro 4TB Portable SSD delivers up to 2100/2000 MB/s via USB-C 20 Gbps, IP55 ruggedness and 256-bit AES encryption, but its performance is limited by the need for a Gen 2x2 port and some users report early failures.

Lexar's 1 TB Professional Go SSD with hub is a niche-focused, ultra-compact solution for iPhone 15/16 Pro users needing high-speed ProRes 4K recording, offering IP65 protection and integrated power delivery. The hub adds versatility but feels less robust, and the overall package carries a premium price.
