How is a "portable" SSD a great thing?
Hi, I've recently been noticing alot of "portable" SSD drives that connect via USB. (USB 3.1 I think is what I saw though I'm not sure that that is the minimum port requirement...)
From what I understand about hard drives though, I always thought that they were limited by the port to which they are connected. So.... given that SSDs are supposedly blazingly fast (at least when connected internally via SATA or .M2), how is an SSD capable of being blazing fast and therefore a worthwhile investment when it is a "portable" one connected via USB?
