Sony today unveiled its new generation of portable storage drives with the new SL-E, drives that are based on solid state drives (SSDs) to deliver higher speeds than conventional portable drives based on mechanical drives.
Sony Announces New SSD-based SL-E Portable Storage Drive
The new SL-E units incorporate USB Type C and Type A ports to make them compatible with any type of device, being able to achieve write rates of up to 520MB/s and read rates of up to 540MB/s. These speeds make them ideal for professional photographers, who will see the new drives as an ideal companion for fast backups or to quickly store their sessions.
By not using moving parts, the SL-E becomes a durable and robust option, ensuring data protection for even the busiest of lives. These will come in three different capacities of 240GB, 480GB and 960GB, which will be available for 169€, 289€ and 499€ respectively.
