2TB Extreme PRO Portable SSD - Up to 2000MB/s Read Speeds - Black | External SSD, Compatible with PC, Mac & Consoles, IP65 Water & dust resistant, 256 bit hardware encryption, USB-C 3.2 Gen 2

The SanDisk Extreme PRO Portable SSD 2TB is an excellent external drive for fast file transfers and reliable storage. The NVMe technology delivers very impressive speeds, and I was able to move large files and videos quickly without noticeable delays. The drive feels compact and well built, making it easy to carry in a bag or pocket. It’s especially useful for backing up large files or working with media projects where speed matters. The only downside is the price, which is higher than standard external drives. However, considering the performance and build quality, it feels worth it if you need fast portable storage. Overall, a powerful and dependable portable SSD for anyone needing quick data transfer and extra storage.

This SanDisk portable SSD is compact, lightweight, and feels really solid. The short cable is a nice touch, keeping things tidy and easy to position on a desk. I use it as a working drive for editing, and it’s fast enough to feel just like working from my laptop’s internal storage, without filling it up or slowing things down. The 1TB size also makes it easier to stay organised by separating work into different projects. The built-in loop is useful for attaching to a bag when travelling, making it a great option for working on the go. Overall, a fast, portable, and reliable drive that’s ideal for everyday use.

Very fast and reliable portable SSD. It works great, feels solid and well made, and the compact size makes it easy to carry around. So far, I’m very happy with the performance and storage capacity.

Are you finding researching a new SSD a complete minefield? Theres so many out there and I didn't know what to buy. I had 3 questions that I had to answer to come to my decision. Spoiler...they are not all equal! 1. Q: is it compatible with my iMac 2020 and iPad Pro 2018? (I'd read loads about compatibility issues and even contacted SanDisk who wouldn't commit to a clear answer). A: so far it works well with both, but see the speed results below. 2. Q: what speed does it give in real life? (I wanted to have around 1000 MBPS read and write speed even after sustained use). A: I did a Speedtest (Black Magic) through the Mac and it's giving approx. 950 MBPS read and write via the iMacs TB3 and USB port, which I'm very happy with. Remember, this is not a TB3 SSD. To get the full-rated 2000 MBps you'd need to use this with a USB 3.2 X2 port which my 2020 Mac doesn't have. Speed when connected to iPad? I'm not sure yet, but I'll revise this once I've worked it out. It's very decent though. 3. Q: why this particular SSD if you can't get the full speed out of it anyway? A1: it's fast enough for my needs right now, but it's heavily future proofed for when speedier ports become available on Macs or iPads. A2: it out performed similarly priced drives (Samsung T7, T5, Crucial X8, LaCie Rugged) and held its own against more expensive drives like Samsung X5, LaCie Rugged Pro, WD Black) with regards to speed and throttling, even after sustained use when transferring big files. (Throttling due to heat is a problem with many SSDs and claimed headline speeds aren't achieved in real life due to this). A3: it's small, seems durable for travelling and has no sharp edges to scratch other equipment. It comes with a USB-C to USB-C and a USB-C to USB-A cable. Both are a good length (approx. 30cm) for placement behind an iMac. A4: Its got a 5 year warranty. My question was… Should I go for the Extreme V2 (non-Pro version) rated at 1000 MBPS and save myself £45? The reviews are coming up decent as well for that one. Not quite as fast over sustained use, (approximately 800-ish), but if you don't ever see yourself ever getting a USB3.2 X2 machine, that would be my second choice.

so disappointed. ⚠️ it only has one USB connector, so transfer speed is ultimately limited & can't take advantage of it being an NVMe drive. for it's cost they couldn't have multiple connectors with onboard system to even have parallel transfer? ⚠️ the disk heats up a lot even when not in use (actively reading / writing) so it's wasting energy and doing god knows what. I expected so much more. better off buying a NVMe-to-USB adapter to save money. ⚠️ It has some small separate embedded disk with encryption software but NO Linux software only Win/Mac and it is really laggy and stalled the machine when I clicked on it. ⚠️ For such a large storage capacity the likelihood of transfering data is high yet the cable is incredible short and impractically so. ⚠️ The USB-A connector doesn't even have a secure attachment mechanism, so when it was plugged into front panel and was moved slightly while transfering backup files, the physical plug came loose and caused it to corrupt the files and partition being transferred to. If they had bothered with parallel connection option you could have longer cable (more power), allow connection redundancy (if one cable disconnects). They didn't even think to add a clip or magnet to reduce possibility of the single USB plug being disconnected. The people who designed this are sub-par. The product is a lisbility and waste of money, severely over-priced.

Great USB-C drive, pretty decent speed over a 20gbps cable - I use it for large 4k video file temporary storage while I am working on the files (note that I manually transfer the files to the Mac SSD before starting work). Not experienced any excess heat or data loss - I was a bit worried as this model was supposed to have some issues with it, but it's been a good value for money purchase for me. It has the functionality listed and what I expected.

Perfect for on the go. Needed a fast transfer USB3 large storage solution for video files that would even allow enough speed for editing in Adobe Premiere. This works, at a pinch, with Canon XF-AVC 4K files and my Dell laptop which was what I was expecting.

Blazing fast portable SSD with excellent performance. Read speeds are very impressive and transfers are quick and smooth. Compact, rugged design makes it easy to carry everywhere. Reliable storage and well worth the price.

So small and convenient. I bought the Monterey color as well and it is similar transfer speed. Just Wow! For both of them. It's super fast and the perfect size. I'm using it as an external drive, I truly like the size..wanted alot of space..just excellent for what I need to store. I would recommend. Thanks Seller Amazon!

Trabajar super bien, excelente compra
