USSD Solid State Drives Unlock New Smart Storage Business Opportunities

With iPhone 15 and future models adopting the USB-C interface, mobile storage needs are evolving. Users now expect fast, cable-free, and cross-compatible data solutions—especially professionals, content creators, and business users.


For repair shops, distributors, and resellers, adding portable SSDs like NCC’s USSD series can create a valuable extension to existing product lines.

  • Durable & Compact: Zinc alloy casing, heat-resistant, shockproof
  • Universal Compatibility: Works with iOS, Android, Windows, macOS, HarmonyOS

Use cases include mobile backup, video editing, secure file transfers, and data archiving.
