Professional reviewers from B&H and Camera Gear commend the SE9 G2 for its sturdy metal construction, capless design, and solid read performance, positioning it as a reliable, budget-friendly option. However, they note that its write speed lags behind rivals and that it lacks any security features.
Everyday users rate the drive highly (average 4.9/5 on Best Buy), praising its fast reads, sleek metal look, and keyring convenience. Common complaints focus on the slow write speed, absence of an activity LED, and the tendency of the metal finish to scratch with regular keychain use.

“Great transfer rates”

Professional reviewers praise the Exodia for its universal compatibility, practical cap-retention design, lightweight build, and long warranty, but note the lack of independent speed testing and reliance on manufacturer-provided performance figures.
Everyday users appreciate the affordability, cap-keeper feature, and confidence from the 5-year warranty, while common complaints focus on slower-than-advertised speeds and the basic plastic construction.
