The Beetle X31, SK hynix’s first foray into portable SSDs, features an ultra-compact and ultra-lightweight design for outstanding portability. Its consistent 1,050 MB/s read and 1,000 MB/s write speeds are achieved through heat control on USB 3.2 Gen 2 and later.
Equipped with a DRAM buffer produced in-house, the Beetle X31 enhances both performance and reliability and comes with two types of USB cables (USB-C to USB-C and USB-C to USB-A) for versatility in just about every environment.
SK hynix, ranking second globally in DRAM and NAND production (Omdia, 2023), is a subsidiary of SK Group, which ranked 117th on the Fortune Global 500 list for 2022.
In recent years, SK hynix has been leading the memory semiconductor industry, developing the world’s first 321-Layer 4D NAND and the fastest mobile DRAM, LPDDR5T.
