Lexar Go Portable SSD 1TB - Silver

The Lexar Professional Go Portable SSD 1TB packs a full terabyte of fast external storage into a drive about the size of your thumb. Designed with photographers, filmmakers, and mobile creators in mind, it plugs directly into compatible USB-C devices without requiring a dangling cable, making it great for everything from backing up photos on the road to recording video directly to external storage.

And this thing is genuinely tiny. At approximately 1.7 inches long and weighing just 13 grams, the Professional Go can permanently live in a camera bag, laptop sleeve, tech pouch, or pocket without becoming another piece of gear you have to think about.

A Tiny Backup Drive for Your Camera Bag

You definitely don't need to be shooting ProRes to make the Professional Go useful. Its combination of 1TB capacity, tiny size, and fast transfer speeds makes it an excellent take-anywhere backup drive for photographers.

Pair it with a laptop, tablet, compatible phone, or USB-C card reader and you've got an easy way to make another copy of your photos and video while you're away from your main workstation. Use it to back up memory cards after a shoot, move large RAW folders between computers, carry an editing library while traveling, or simply keep 1TB of emergency storage tucked away in your camera bag.

With speeds of up to 1050MB/s read and 1000MB/s write, it's plenty quick for moving large photo and video folders without waiting around all day.

Built for Mobile Video

The Professional Go can also serve as primary capture media for compatible mobile video workflows. Lexar specifically designed the drive to support direct recording of Apple ProRes 4K 60fps video with compatible iPhone Pro models.

Plug the SSD directly into a compatible phone's USB-C port and supported video can be recorded straight to the drive. That gives you 1TB of external recording space without hanging a conventional SSD and cable off your phone rig.

For mobile filmmakers, BTS footage, social content, or more serious smartphone productions, it's an exceptionally clean little setup.

Fast Enough for Serious Work

The Professional Go uses a USB 3.2 Gen 2 interface and delivers speeds of up to 1050MB/s read and 1000MB/s write with a compatible host device.

That makes it useful well beyond mobile recording. Use it for fast photo and video transfers, portable Lightroom or editing libraries, moving large RAW folders between computers, backing up files while traveling, or keeping a second copy of important work separate from your primary storage.

Tiny but Surprisingly Tough

Despite its tiny dimensions, the Professional Go is rated IP65 for dust and water resistance and has been tested by Lexar for drops of up to 1 meter.

That's particularly useful for a drive designed to spend its life bouncing between camera bags, phones, computers, and locations. Whether you're using it as primary capture media or as your backup drive, it's built with portability in mind.

Compatibility

The Lexar Professional Go connects through USB Type-C and is compatible with a broad range of supported devices, including USB-C iPhones, smartphones, Mac computers, Windows PCs, iPads and tablets, and compatible cameras and other USB-C devices.

Actual performance and recording capabilities depend on the host device. Devices with slower USB interfaces will not achieve the SSD's maximum transfer speeds.
