The Lexar SL500 Portable SSD with Magnetic Set is essentially the exact same Lexar portable SSD, now bundled with a rubberised magnetic case. As with the standard version, the SSD — with up to 4TB capacity — is as fast as ever but once again requires a USB 3.2 Gen 2×2 connection to maximise its full transfer speed potential. This time, the inclusion of the MagSafe rubberised case not only adds a extra durability to what is already a very robust drive but also enables you to neatly attach it to the back of your iPhone. Using the MagSafe sticker included in the box, you can also attach it to the back of your Laptop or Android phone and use the drive and magnetic case in exactly the same way.
