Sabrent Rocket Nano 1TB USB 3.2 10Gb/s External Aluminum SSD (Silver) (SB-1TB-NANO)

For My Data

Didn't work..

My experience is only for the 1TB version. For some reasons none of the reviews perform actual real world transfers. In CrystalDiskMark you can see read/writes at 900+ MB/s, but: In the real world, you are looking at 500MB/s to 550MB/s writes copying a large file, assuming you are using a GEN2 port. Reads were generally a little higher at 600MB/s to 750B/s. When connecting using GEN1 you will max out at 400MB/s. I found read/writes were sustainable even when copying 500+ GB in one go. Its gets warm, but not worryingly so. These speeds are still great, but bear this in mind when comparing to other options. This is a USB-C device, not a thunderbolt device. Build quality it above excellent. Packaging is so good you do not want to throw it away. The only issue I had, which may be due to my computer, was that when I swapped between the USB-C port and USB3.1 port on the same computer, the device needed the drivers to be removed, otherwise it only transferred at USB2 speeds.

To save space on my MacBook Pro I moved my Photos library to an old, spare external HDD which worked well but was slow to read/write and little large to carry between work and home. When I saw this Sabrent ROCKET nano on Amazon it seem like the ideal solution. I haven't clocked transfer speeds but it seems much faster than the old HDD. It's advertised as 1000MB/s transfer but doesn't state if that is read or write or both. I formatted this unit as APFS because I know I will use it exclusively for my Photos library and have had no issue so far. I appreciate that Sabrent includes a USB-C and a USB-A-to-C cable with the nano to ensure immediate use straight out of the box. The tiny form factor is great, only slightly larger, thicker, and heavier than the USB thumb drives that are so ubiquitous on the Web, having an aluminum exterior giving it a sleek, durable, and premium feel. I understand that the use of a metal casing also helps preserve the innards by acting as a passive heat-sink. Pricewise, this offers great value compared to offerings by SanDisk, Samsung, and Corsair. The only reason I gave a 4/5 stars rating is because I cannot vouch for the longevity of this product, having only owned and used it for less than a month. I will change the star rating in the future (up or down) depending on how this unit performs over the course of time. Reading comments by others, I will take the time to register with Sabrent for the extended warranty. Overall, though, I am currently satisfied and quite pleased with this purchase. It does what I want, reads and writes quickly enough for my needs, and is small and convenient to carry around. *** Update 22Jul2024 *** Upgrading my original 4 star rating to 5 stars. I’ve had this Sabrent storage device for just over 4 years and it has been consistently reliable and speedy in its read/write speeds. Highly recommended product that stands the test of time (well, 4 years and counting).

This stops working in between and the entire data is lost. Not at all recommend.

Transfert et utilisation de mes données Rapidité et efficacité Fonctionnel pour les déplacements Haute qualité ; le produit nano est très bien conçu

Hard disk esterno molto piccolo, delle dimensioni di una pen drive ma con 1Gb a disposizione.. É leggero; pesa 54 grammi. É velocissimo in scrittura e lettura. Con in mio computer scrive a circa 430 mb/s !!!! Utilizzando però cavi ad alta velocità come quelli forniti dalla Sabrent stessa. L'unica differenza in negativo rispetto alla comune pen drive è il dover portare insieme all'hard disk il cavo, almeno fino a quando non saranno disponibili gli adattatori compatti Usb-A maschio Usb-C maschio ad alta velocità per trasformarlo di fatto in una chiavetta. Consigliatissimo.
