MagSafe compatibility, high-speed performance, and passthrough charging make this compact SSD a standout for mobile creators and gamers.
The Fikwot Magnetic SSD puts a unique spin on portable storage. Unlike your typical external SSD, this one features a MagSafe-style magnetic ring on the back, allowing it to snap directly onto any iPhone that supports MagSafe. For non-MagSafe devices, Fikwot includes two adhesive magnetic rings, letting you add magnetic functionality to just about anything.
What makes this SSD especially versatile is that it supports up to 100W of passthrough charging, so not only does it store your data, it can also help power your devices. It’s compatible with a wide range of gear, including the Nintendo Switch, Steam Deck, iPhones, iPads, and laptops. Fikwot claims read/write speeds of up to 2050MB/s, and the drive is available in 500GB, 1TB, and 2TB capacities.
A small indicator light on the back gives the SSD a clean aesthetic touch while also showing when it’s actively connected or in use.
Unboxing & Setup
The packaging is simple and straightforward. Inside the box, you get:
The SSD A USB-A to USB-C cable A USB-C to USB-C cable Two adhesive MagSafe rings A compact user manualI started by snapping the SSD onto the back of my iPhone (in a MagSafe case), and it attached securely without a hitch. I used the included USB-C to USB-C cable to plug it directly into my phone. It was instantly recognized, and I began transferring some large 4K video files right away. The process was smooth, fast, and error-free.
I also tested the 100W passthrough charging capability. When I connected the SSD to a power source and plugged it into my phone, it charged the device while also handling file transfers. One thing to note: the drive does get noticeably warm when you’re using both the SSD and charging features simultaneously, though not alarmingly so.
General Use
My primary use case has been screen recording gameplay on my iPad Pro, then transferring the files to the Fikwot SSD to save space on my device. From there, I plug the SSD into my MacBook Air for editing. The drive handles these large video files quickly and reliably.
To test its real-world performance, I ran the Blackmagic Disk Speed Test on my MacBook. I used both the included USB-C to C cable and a third-party cable I had around. Here’s how it performed:
With my own cable: Write speed: 40.5MB/s Read speed: 38.7MB/s With the Fikwot-supplied cable: Write speed: 978.3MB/s Read speed: 911.9MB/sWhile I wasn’t able to reach the advertised 2050MB/s, those numbers are still very respectable, especially considering this is real-world usage and not a controlled lab setup. Several factors, such as device specs, thermal conditions, cable quality, etc., likely affect whether you’ll hit the theoretical maximum speed.
That said, file transfers felt snappy, and I never ran into any slowdowns or hiccups in typical day-to-day use.

Overall, the Fikwot 500GB Magnetic SSD stands out as a reliable, fast, and cleverly designed storage solution that fits perfectly into today’s mobile tech lifestyle. Its MagSafe style magnetic mounting is not just a gimmick it genuinely adds convenience for users juggling multiple devices, especially iPhones, iPads, or gaming handhelds like the Switch or Steam Deck.
ScreenshotThe added bonus of 100W passthrough charging makes it even more useful for creators and gamers who need both power and storage on the fly. Performance-wise, while it didn’t hit the full 2050MB/s advertised speed in real-world tests, it still delivered impressive results, especially when using the included cable. At $59.99, the price feels reasonable considering the blend of speed, build quality, features, and the magnetic versatility you’re getting.
If you’re looking for an SSD that offers more than just file storage, the Fikwot Magnetic SSD is definitely worth considering.
