I have been using a Samsung portable SSD with USB 3 connectivity for 
quite some time. I used to work in an area with very limited internet 
for weeks at a time and used the disk to put some media to read, watch, 
or listen on it at home that I could take to my work location to use 
during my time off. The transfer speed after upgrading from a standard 
USB drive to the SSD was amazing and I never looked back. Of course, 
there is a price increase for the increased speed.
