## Description

The portable SSD for all The first portable SSDs on the market were really a small step in the evolution of mobile storage, often with limited capacity, speed and reliability. The Envoy Pro FX is a big step for all Computer Kids™ as it is the first portable SSD with superior performance and compatibility. Connect it to the Thunderbolt and USB-equipped Macs and PCs of yesterday and today. Connect to tomorrow's Thunderbolt 4 and USB4 machines. You can even connect it to iPad Pro, Chromebook and Surface devices. Imagine never having to worry about what your external drive works with or what interface your drive has! X-treme Performance The X in Envoy Pro FX means you can enjoy maximum Xtreme performance from any interface you connect to, at speeds of up to 2800 MB/s. Whether you want to access and store files from an older computer, back up personal files, or edit large-format videos on site, the Envoy Pro FX can handle any audio, video, photo, graphics and game task throwing at it. Ideal for all and every need Mac and PC compatibility back to 2010. Fast. Hard. Portable. These are many function boxes that are ticked off. The Envoy Pro FX then takes it to the next level by being the ideal drive for a variety of applications: - Photo, video, and document storage - Time Machine or file history backups - Secondary / portable OS boot drive - Project drive on set for editing dailies - Multi-angle camera processing - Discover the potential of your Photos in Affinity Photo and Adobe Photoshop - Leverage large sample libraries in audio projects - A portable Steam game library Certified Flexible use in Xtreme environments is a key feature of Envoy Pro FX. Its slim, heat-dissipating aluminum housing is IP67 certified, allowing you to work in the dirtiest and wettest environments. Take on the urban jungle or a chaotic set and trust your data is protected by MIL-STD810G certified military-grade drop resistance. It is so robust that we sent it into space aboard the Blue Origin New Shepard rocket! Whether you drop it or hang it in zero G, the Envoy Pro FX has everything you need. The differences make the truth Large theoretical performance figures are certainly an eye-catcher... but they rarely reflect real performance. That's why we take the extra time to undergo intensive performance testing OWC storage solutions. The truthful listing of the Envoy Pro FX's real-world test results at up to 2800 MB/s defines our commitment to the "OWC difference", which ensures that you will be completely satisfied that the Envoy Pro FX meets your most demanding requirements. Form meets function The deeply grooved ribs of the anthracite-colored aluminum housing of the Envoy Pro FX not only serve the good looks. They turn the entire case into a highly effective heat sink for maximum heat dissipation and performance. Even after extended file transfers at top speed, the silent Envoy Pro FX remains reliably cool. Ultimate protection Protect customer project files or personal information with ease. Envoy Pro FX, fully compatible with macOS and Windows' built-in encryption, lets you add reassuring password protection to your data when needed. Intel® Evo™ + Thunderbolt™ Certified OWC Envoy Pro FX receives Intel Evo + Thunderbolt certification - a recognition of the exceptional performance and experience you can expect when pairing Envoy Pro FX with Intel Evo laptops.

Review: Envoy Pro FX is the SSD to buy for your iMac upgrade - I needed to upgrade my 2019 Retina 5K 27" Intel iMac because the Fusion Drive had developed file directory hash errors that couldn't be resolved with Disk Utility First Aid, even after running First Aid for several days. I eventually backed up (externally and offsite) and reformatted the Fusion Drive and reinstalled MacOS to remedy the disk errors. But the disk errors seemed like a harbinger of a potential impending hardware failure, and time to consider replacing the aging Fusion Drive with newer, faster solid state drive technology. SSDs have come way down in price since I purchased my iMac. There are three good options for upgrading the 2019 iMac drive: 1.) Add a Thunderbolt external drive and make it the boot drive 2.) Add an internal SSD mounted in place of the existing SATA drive inside the iMac 3.) Replace the NVME drive connected to the PCIe bus behind the iMacs mainboard. This small NVME drive is part of the Fusion Drive and acts as a sort of drive cache. But since it connects to the PCIe bus on the mainboard, it has the potential to be the fastest upgrade option by far. Installing these options increase in complexity in the order listed above. But the internal SATA replacement is actually slower than the external Thunderbolt option. The PCIe NVME option #3 is the fastest option, but the hardest to do. It requires almost completely disassembling and removing the innards of the iMac to access the backside of the mainboard. And due to the technical depth of the task, it's pretty easy to screw things up. I opted for the easy upgrade, Option #1. The OWC Envoy Pro FX ($300) was $60 more expensive than a SanDisk alternative (SanDisk Pro 2TB Pro-G40 at $240). At first I ordered the SanDisk to save money. But after reading about very many user complaints about failed SanDisk external SSD, I cancelled my order and ordered the OWC Envoy Pro. I'm glad I did. The Envoy Pro FX drive has incredible build quality. The enclosure is beefy, machined anodized aluminum. Very thick and massive as a heat sink. I didn't appreciate this until I held it in my hands and felt the weight and solid construction. Nice job OWC! BlackMagic disk speed test now shows Write speeds exceeding 1518 MB/s and Read speeds of 2664 MB/s on the external Thunderbolt drive. That's almost 3 times faster than the internal Fusion Drive. I recommend the OWC Envoy Pro FX drive. And I am no longer a fan of SanDisk due to the controversy about lost data. I already have a 4TB SanDisk Extreme Pro Portable SSD. But due to the stories online, there's little confidence in SanDisk reliability today.
