Notes:
- Prices are a big factor in our recommendations as the performance differences between the faster USB options are small. However they can vary so check local pricing before you order and great deals are worth considering even for the weaker performers.
- Dutchies: Several SSD's (WD, Sandisk) are currently way cheaper to get through Amazon.de (EU links above) than through local webshops. It's worth checking out.
- The Minix Neo Storage has just been launched and doesn't seem to be in stock yet anywhere. Will update when we learn more.
