## Long description

The Kioxia EXCERIA PLUS G2 Portable SSD is a compact, lightweight external drive designed for mobile storage needs. With a smooth aluminum housing and reduced size compared to the previous EXCERIA PLUS model, this portable SSD fits up to 500 GB of data in the palm of your hand while delivering read speeds up to 1,050 MB/s and write speeds up to 1,000 MB/s over a USB 3.2 Gen 2 (3.1 Gen 2) connection. It includes both USB Type-C to C and Type-C to A cables for broad device compatibility and supports password protection with hardware encryption for data security.
Advantages
The drive combines a small, stylish aluminum enclosure with high transfer speeds for fast handling of 4K video and high-resolution photo files. Its shockproof housing and lack of moving parts increase durability for on-the-go use, while built-in password protection using 256-bit AES hardware encryption helps safeguard stored data. The package includes both Type-C to C and Type-C to A cables to ensure compatibility with modern and older hosts.
Suitable for
Photographers and videographers transferring and carrying large media files
Content creators who need fast portable storage for 4K video work
Professionals and students who require compact external drives for backups and file transport
Gamers who want additional external storage compatible with modern consoles and PCs
When it may not be suitable
This portable SSD offers high performance and portability but may not be the right choice if you require very large capacities beyond 500 GB — larger-capacity models would better suit extensive archives. It is also not a substitute for network-attached storage or cloud services when multi-user remote access and automatic syncing across devices are needed.

How to use
Connect the EXCERIA PLUS G2 Portable SSD to your computer or compatible device using the included USB Type-C to C or Type-C to A cable. The drive is plug-and-play with Windows, macOS, iPadOS, iOS, Android, and current consoles; no special drivers are typically required. For data protection, install the SSD Utility software if you want to enable password protection and follow the provided instructions to set and confirm a password. Use standard file-transfer tools on your host device to move files to and from the drive.
What to consider before purchase
Required capacity — 500 GB may be insufficient for very large media libraries
Host compatibility — ensure your device supports USB 3.2 Gen 2 or will accept the included Type-C to A cable
Intended use — consider whether a rugged or higher-capacity drive is needed for heavy field use or long-term archives
Usage recommendations
For best performance, connect the EXCERIA PLUS G2 to a USB 3.2 Gen 2 port and use the included Type-C cable. Enable password protection through SSD Utility if you store sensitive data. Keep regular backups for critical files rather than relying on a single external drive.
