Our Pick

ADATA

ADATA Elite SE760 1TB
7.6/10

The Elite SE760 is ADATA's step-up from the SE800 — same Gen 2 1000 MB/s read but the body is metal rather than plastic, and the warranty term is identical at 3 years. Marginal upgrade; buy whichever is cheaper.

Lexar

Lexar SL100 Pro 1TB
7.5/10

A 950 MB/s Gen 2 portable in a brushed-aluminum case the size of a credit card. The SL100 Pro is one of the smallest 1TB Gen 2 SSDs at retail — buy it for the form factor, not the rated speed (which undershoots the Gen 2 ceiling).
