Samsung is coming out with a new portable solid-state drive that’s not meant only for PCs: it will also plug into smartphones and tablets that support USB Type-C connections.

The new pocket-sized SSD T3 provides a speed and capacity boost over the USB Type-C thumb drives, which work on mobile devices but are not full-fledged SSDs.

The SSD T3 will be available in capacities up to 2TB and start shipping next month. The drive will be compatible with the Windows, Mac OS and Android 4.4 and higher.

Samsung hasn’t said what the SSD T3 will cost, but it succeeds the SSD T1 drive, which shipped a year ago and was priced at $179.99 for a 250GB drive and $599.99 for a 1TB drive.
