It's not much bigger than a credit card, extremely light. I was going to get a standard HD, but had a Lacie 4TB die within a few months. This drive is plug and play with my mac mini, just reformatted for encryption (took minutes, not hours). I selected this ssd because of its quality, materials used; aluminum internals for heat dispersion, been using constantly for 24 hours, still cool to touch, shock and waterproof to 1 meter. G-Tech originally a British company, so supporting European allies, and quality so high that Apple bought them. Excellent warranty, but not likely to fail since it's ssd. Super fast! All my movies look beautiful and play smoothly. Plugs into my mac mini Thunderbolt-3 ports, though only at usb-c speeds (i don't care; plays movies perfect, really fast data transfers). I'll never buy a standard drive again; only ssd from here on out, and will only be a G-tech or Lacie for full mac compatibility and quality. Review: Portable SSD's new leader in price to performance ratio (G-Drive vs. T5) WINDOWS USERS MUST REFORMAT THIS DRIVE - The new leader in affordable and portable SSD's. I have been doing a ton of video editing lately mainly digitizing and restoring old VHS tapes. The files I'm generating generally start out around 80gb's so while this purchase was somewhat of a whim, it was more necessity. I also recently purchased a Samsung T5 for the same purposes and it is as great as the dearth of reviews on it already state. It has a slightly smaller and lighter footprint than the G-Drive but head to head I'll take the G-Drive to get the extra ruggedized features. As far as speed, the G-Drive and T5 are blazing fast for external drives so no disappointment here that I didn't choose an internal SATA drive. The G-Drive specs out slightly faster than the T5 but in my usage there aren't any appreciable speed differences. The G-Drive and the T5 blow my mind on both 3.0 and 3.1 ports- I've never used any external drives as fast as these. I will definitely be purchasing another G-Drive SSD R because I prefer the ruggedized features and price-wise it's generally a better value (though not always) than the T5 on a per GB basis. I do not regret buying a T5, I believe in the end it will probably come down to price for most people when considering these two. Windows users must reformat the G-Drive as your machine will not recognize it. Unless you absolutely need cross platform use between MAC and PC just format the drive to NTFS as it is more stable than exFAT. There are very detailed OS specific reformatting instruction for NTFS and exFAT on the G Technologies support pages. *Purchased another one of these in the 1TB size and could not be more satisfied and confident with my storage/back up solution. ## Features - A durable design with IP67 water/dust resistance, 3M drop tested, and 1000lb crush resistance - Super fast transfer rates up to 560MB/s - Latest generation USB C connectivity (USB 3.1 Gen 2) - Shock and vibration resistant solid state drive - With capacities up to 2TB in a small, light package (As used for storage capacity, 1 gigabyte (GB) = 1 billion bytes and 1 terabyte (TB) = 1 trillion bytes; Total accessible capacity varies depending on operating environment.) - Order with your Alexa enabled device; Just ask "Alexa, order G Technology External SSD." ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0765QBGZZ | | Additional Features | Water and Dust Resistant, Shock and Vibration Resistant, Crushproof | | Best Sellers Rank | #311 in External Solid State Drives | | Brand | G-Technology | | Built-In Media | 3-Year Limited warranty, G-DRIVE mobile SSD R-Series | | Cache Memory Installed Size | 1 | | Color | black | | Compatible Devices | Laptop | | Connectivity Technology | USB | | Customer Reviews | 4.8 out of 5 stars 1,600 Reviews | | Data Transfer Rate | 560 Megabits Per Second | | Digital Storage Capacity | 1 TB | | Enclosure Material | Nand Flash | | Form Factor | Portable | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00705487206159 | | Hard Disk Description | Solid State Drive | | Hard Disk Interface | USB 3.1 | | Hard-Drive Size | 1 TB | | Hardware Connectivity | USB 3.0 Type A, USB 3.0 Type C | | Hardware Platform | PC; Mac | | Installation Type | External Hard Drive | | Item Type Name | G-Technology 0G06053 1TB G-DRIVE mobile SSD R-Series Rugged Portable Solid State Storage | | Item Weight | 3.03 ounces | | Manufacturer | G-Technology | | Mfr Part Number | 0G06053 | | Model Name | G-DRIVE Mobile | | Model Number | 0G06053-1 | | Number of Items | 1 | | Read Speed | 560 Megabytes Per Second | | Special Feature | Water and Dust Resistant, Shock and Vibration Resistant, Crushproof | | Specific Uses For Product | Business | | UPC | 705487206159 | | Unit Count | 1.0 Count | | Warranty Description | 5-year limited | ## Product Details - **Brand:** G-Technology - **Color:** black - **Compatible Devices:** Laptop - **Connectivity Technology:** USB - **Digital Storage Capacity:** 1 TB - **Hard Disk Description:** Solid State Drive - **Hard Disk Interface:** USB 3.1 - **Hard Disk Size:** 1 TB - **Installation Type:** External Hard Drive - **Special Feature:** Water and Dust Resistant, Shock and Vibration Resistant, Crushproof ## Images ![G-DRIVE Mobile SSD - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61yaB0vl56L.jpg) ![G-DRIVE Mobile SSD - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/41YKC4YEc3L.jpg) ![G-DRIVE Mobile SSD - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/41MXgUcMDEL.jpg) ![G-DRIVE Mobile SSD - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/41VrrzKhEUL.jpg) ![G-DRIVE Mobile SSD - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/41UI0OqCnsL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Size** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: Isn't that the Google logo?πŸ€”** A: Nah, the letter G was implemented around 500 B.C.

In the last 5 year's, I've gone through 7 Western Digital or Samsung external USB drives, but this is my first SSD. This is by far the best external drive I've ever owned. Pros: β€’ Solid construction! Really well built. β€’ Super fast! In some tests, it has outperformed MacBook Pro's internal SSD β€’ Light weight and very small β€’ Easy to set up and use β€’ Very responsive to utilities and use Cons β€’ None . . . . I love this drive! Though to be fair, SSD's are still overpriced. They have not changed much in the last few years and that's not right..... None the less, this is a fantastic drive. I've had it for roughly 3 months and it's been flawless. Unlike my Wester Digitals which seem to have a 50% fail rate in the first year. Really, I've replaced so many under warranty I'm not sure how the company stays in business. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.ph/products/50790813-g-drive-mobile-ssd](https://www.desertcart.ph/products/50790813-g-drive-mobile-ssd) --- *Product available on Desertcart Philippines* *Store origin: PH* *Last updated: 2026-05-24*
