The Sabrent Rocket XTRM-Q represents a unique product line in the market – a dual-mode SSD that can work with both Thunderbolt 3 ports and USB ports with optimal performance profiles based on the host to which the drive is connected. It is also available...
Type-C port: Thunderbolt 3 and USB 3.2 compatible, No drivers or external power needed, Extremely fast data transfer, Excellent heat dissipation, Small compact design/form factor, Well made from quality materials
Somewhat finicky on what connection cable I used, Did not work with any of my USB 3.2 or TB3 docks, Wasn't compatible with my wife's 5 yr old iMac or the Gadgeteer Kid's 4 yr old gaming PC
Overall I really like the Rocket XTRM-Q solid state drive, definitely a keeper. Its build quality, transfer speeds, and compact form factor makes it a great addition to my EDC gear. I say that since it worked well with all my primary computing hardware (t...

Well, Sabrent has continued to impress me by keeping things simple and having drives like the Rocket XTRM-Q that are just hard to find fault with. The drive is based on their Rocket Q M.2 SSD and the performance of that NVMe drive is great. When I tes...

Sleek looks, Highest-capacity TB3 portable SSD, USB and Thunderbolt 3 compatibility, Competitive performance and pricing, Warranty up to five years, Included cables are long,
One-year warranty without registration, Slow write speed after write cache fills, Lacks 256-bit AES hardware encryption, Lacks IP rating
With QLC NAND, Sabrent's Rocket XTRM-Q aims to undercut most of its TLC-based competition while still delivering the storage goods. Not only does it come in high capacities, but the Rocket XRTM-Q is also very fast, performing well on both Thunderbolt 3 an...

There is a certain simplicity to the Sabrent XTRM-Q that we admire. It is compatible with pretty much everything you can connect it to, whether that's a sloooow old USB all the way up to a Thunderbolt 3 connection, and it doesn't require you to do any con...

Fast, Dual Thunderbolt 3 SuperSpeed USB 10Gbps interface, Available in up to 8TB of capacity
Runs a bit warm, Pricey
If you want the performance of Thunderbolt 3, but need to retain compatibility with USB-only computers, then the XTRM-Q is what you want. 8TB that fits in a shirt pocket ain't half-bad either, even if it means removing a substantial number of Benjamin...

On July 26, 2020 (or sooner), the Sabrent Rocket XTRM-Q NVMe External SSDs will become available to the public and it's pretty easy to understand the use many will have for the 500GB, 1,2 and maybe even 4TB versions, but how about the 8TB capacity? Who re...
Who does not like the sound of high-speed portable storage drives with as high a capacity as 16TB! Well, this is where the Sabrent Rocket series XTRM-Q drives make their case a compelling one. These drives start at...

Abstract: At first blush, I was ready to love Sabrent's XTRM-Q 16TB (SB-DXMQ-8X2)–$3,300 price tag or no. How can you argue with having 16TB of storage at the end of your Thunderbolt cable? Especially with Apple's consistent habit of gouging you for internal stora...
