Designed to balance ultra-portability with high-end performance, this new drive leverages the latest USB4 Type-C interface to deliver read speeds of up to 4,000 MB/s.
High-Speed Performance in a Compact Form
The PD40 Mini is built for professionals and content creators who require rapid data transfer without the bulk. Despite its diminutive size similar to that of the PD20 ECO Mini, the drive’s USB4 interface allows for the transfer of high-resolution video, photos, and large project files in seconds. While it utilizes the latest connection standards, it maintains broad backward compatibility with USB 3.2 and USB 2.0 devices, ensuring plug-and-play functionality across various systems.
Rugged and Lightweight Design
Weighing in at just 22 grams, the PD40 is designed for life on the go. It features a sophisticated matte black and deep red finish with a rubberized, grooved texture to improve grip and prevent drops. A built-in lanyard hole adds to its portability, allowing users to easily attach the drive to backpacks or keychains.
