Macworld TL;DR: The iKlips S USB-C Nano Fingerprint SSD is a tiny, secure 256GB SSD on sale now for $70. Sometimes, you can’t afford to wait for cloud storage. The iKlips S USB-C Nano Touch Portable SSD gives you a tiny, secure, high-speed way to move data wherever you go, and, unlike cloud storage, you don’t need a subscription to use it. It’s also on sale for $69.99 (reg. $89). This drive is small enough to clip to a keychain. It measures only 14.2 by 26 by 17.1 millimeters and weighs just 5 grams. Even with that size, it packs 256GB of storage and reaches speeds up to 450 MB per second for reading and up to 400 MB per second for writing. Large video files, including 4K and ProRes footage, transfer quickly without lag. The drive uses exFAT formatting, so files larger than 4GB save without splitting or compression. The iKlips S has a novel way of handling security: it has its own fingerprint reader that supports up to 20 fingerprints, allowing instant access without entering passwords. Encryption happens on the SSD itself, so the data stays protected even if the drive is plugged into another device. You can use this compact drive on almost any modern device. Plug it into an iPhone with USB-C, an iPad, an Android phone, a Mac, a Windows PC, ChromeOS, or Linux. No extra apps. No setup. Just plug it in and start transferring. The package includes a dust cover and lanyard for carrying, and the SSD comes with a three-year manufacturer’s warranty for peace of mind.
