I bought this as supplemental storage for my low-capacity Macbook. I was worried that it might be too inconvenient to use, but I've been very impressed.
Performance: Excellent. It gets the advertised speeds and I don't notice any slowdown when using it compared to my internal SSD.
Form factor: WAY smaller and lighter than I expected, in a good way. Its profile is scarcely larger than a credit card, and it's slightly thinner than a Bic pen. It's just big and sturdy enough that you won't easily lose it, but small and discrete enough to slip into a bag or sleeve easily.
Encryption: I think that any mobile hardware with personal data on it should be encrypted. I was planning to encrypt the drive using third-party tools, but realized after buying that it has its own encryption hardware built in. The official app for decrypting the drive is super easy to use, and since it's all handled on the SSD itself, there's no extra overhead and minimal performance impact.
If you're looking for an SSD that will see moderate daily use, this is easily the one to get.
