Orico has unveiled its USB4 High Speed Portable SSD Montage 40Gbps series, with a design inspired by Dutch painter Piet Mondrian and alleged read speeds of 3,126MB/s.

During Orico’s performance testing the drives achieved 3,126MB/s read speeds, 2,832MB/s write speeds and transferred 3GB files in just one second.

Orico claims, ‘the product engineers at Orico do not pursue form over function and have invested in the right technology to make the Montage 40Gbps series one of the best-performing SSDs available.’  

The bold and bright aesthetic of the SSDs draws from Mondrian’s famous work Composition with Red, Blue and Yellow, incorporating the thick black lines and blocks of colour that distinguish the device’s design from most of the alternatives on the market.

The distinctive design was applied with the durable in-mold labelling technique that’s also found in automobile manufacturing for its resistance to corrosion.
