Silicon Power PC60 2TB vs Crucial X10 Pro 2TB

Compare Silicon Power PC60 2TB and Crucial X10 Pro 2TB side by side. Both are 2TB USB 3.2 Gen 2 external SSDs, but they differ in speed, design, and value. Here's how they stack up.

Silicon Power

Silicon Power PC60 2TB
7.4/10

A 2TB budget Gen 2 portable aimed at game-library cold storage for PS5/Xbox. Aggressive pricing makes it competitive against the Seagate One Touch 2TB on sale. Not a drive for sustained-write-heavy creative workflows.

Our Pick

Crucial

Crucial X10 Pro 2TB
9.5/10

The 2TB X10 Pro takes advantage of Gen 2x2 hosts but falls back gracefully on Gen 2 to 10 Gbps. A safe long-horizon buy — even if your current laptop only has Gen 2, you'll see 2000 MB/s the day you upgrade to a Gen 2x2 host. Same TLC NAND, 5-year warranty, and encryption as the X9 Pro.
