Netac ZX1 1TB vs Seagate One Touch SSD 2TB

Compare Netac ZX1 1TB and Seagate One Touch SSD 2TB side by side. Both are 1TB USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 external SSDs, but they differ in speed, design, and value. Here's how they stack up.

Netac

Netac ZX1 1TB
7.5/10

A budget Gen 2x2 portable from Netac — aggressive price vs the brand-name tier. The 1800 MB/s write rating is real but drops further on sustained workloads past the SLC cache. A valid budget pick for game-library overflow where peak sustained write doesn't matter.

Seagate

Seagate One Touch SSD 2TB
7.8/10

The 2TB One Touch is the sweet spot of Seagate's budget portable line — large enough die stack that the sustained-write dropoff after SLC exhaustion is significantly longer than on the 1TB.
