This guy is tiny and mighty. He's USB-C native. My first Time Machine backup completed in under 10 minutes (~150 GB of files). The provided cable is quite short but you can use your Mac's charge cable or another USB-C to USB-C cable for added length.

It’s also very, very small. It’s easy to carry with my laptop when I travel.
I installed Autocad 2023 on it and drew my patterns in with that.
