The credit-card size ESD270C fits in your wallet, making it the perfect choice for businesspeople needing to take important files on their many travels.

Transfer in a blink of an eye

Compact and lightweight
Pack light! The credit-card size ESD270C, with mere 9.6mm in height, fits perfectly in your wallet or purse, and takes up little space in your briefcase. The anti-scratch coating means the external SSD will look sharp even after all the miles. With a reflective black case, you'll be both savvy and stylish.

Expand storage in a flash

Great compatibility
In addition to desktop and laptop computers, the ESD270C can also be used with many other devices, such as on-the-go mobile devices and gaming consoles, providing ultra-fast transfer speeds and extra large capacity expansion.

Type-A and Type-C cables included
The ESD270C comes with both a USB Type-C cable and a USB Type-C to Type-A cable to accommodate desktops and laptops featuring the USB Type-C or USB 3.1 interface.

Powerful 256-bit AES encryption
Transcend's ESD270C supports 256-bit AES encryption to securely and reliably protect data at the hardware level. AES (Advanced Encryption Standard) is a cryptographic algorithm defined by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). Encryption and decryption are processed strictly within the SSD controller and completely independent of any OS or program, making hardware-based AES impossible to decipher.

The ESD270C is equipped with a convenient auto-backup button for instant data backup when used with Transcend Elite software.

Available as both a desktop and mobile app, it can be downloaded for free from Transcend's official website and from Google Play.
