In performance tests, the DS72 SSD showed impressive results in sequential and random read/write speeds. However, Funky Kit did note that the wide protective caps might block adjacent ports, and under heavy usage, thermal throttling could slightly affect speed.

Overall, it earned a solid score of 8.2 out of 10 for being a dependable and portable storage solution.
