Our take on the Oyen Digital U34 Bolt 4TB USB-C USB4 40Gbps NVMe Portable SSD

The Oyen Digital U34 Bolt is a 4TB external NVMe SSD in a bus-powered aluminum enclosure. It uses a PCIe Gen4 x4 drive behind a USB4 40Gbps interface, rated at up to 2,800 MB/s read and write. That puts it in the top tier of portable drives, well ahead of 10Gbps USB 3.2 drives and roughly level with other USB4 enclosures. It suits video editors, photographers and anyone moving very large files between USB4 or Thunderbolt machines. Buyers should check their port: on older USB or Thunderbolt 3 systems it runs slower, and it needs USB4 or Thunderbolt 4 to hit its rated speed.

  • 4TB capacity in a pocketable, bus-powered enclosure
  • PCIe Gen4 NVMe drive inside, not SATA
  • Works with USB-C and Thunderbolt hosts
  • No separate power supply needed
Cons
  • Full speed needs a USB4 or Thunderbolt 4 port
  • Runs warm under sustained large transfers
  • Premium tier costs more than 10Gbps drives

Questions and answers

Do I need a USB4 port to get full speed?
Yes. The 2,800 MB/s rating assumes a USB4 or Thunderbolt 4 host. On USB 3.2 or Thunderbolt 3 it runs at that port's limit, often around 1,000 MB/s or less.
Is it compatible with Macs?
Yes. It works with USB4 and Thunderbolt Macs without drivers, and also mounts on older USB-C Macs at reduced speed. Windows PCs with USB4 or Thunderbolt 4 behave the same way.
Does it need external power?
No. It is bus-powered over the USB-C cable, so it draws power from the host. On bus-powered hubs with many devices attached, use a direct port instead.
How does it compare with a Samsung T9 or SanDisk Extreme Pro?
Those are 20Gbps USB 3.2 drives rated around 2,000 MB/s. The U34 Bolt's USB4 interface is rated higher at 2,800 MB/s, but only on USB4 or Thunderbolt 4 hosts; on 20Gbps ports the gap narrows.
What is in the box?
The drive and a USB-C cable. Check that the cable is rated for 40Gbps; a charge-only or USB 2.0 cable will cap speed far below the drive's rating.
Is 4TB enough for video work?
It holds roughly 100 hours of 4K ProRes or several hours of 8K RAW, depending on codec. Many editors use it as a working drive and archive to larger spinning disks.
