    This is a fast, robust SSD , with 2TB of storage. Purchased at a Amazon deal price that makes this a very cost effective storage solution at 121! Highley recomended. Also can take files from both Mac and PC!

    This unit certainly works just fine. However, it’s impossible to write a full review until it stops working and know how long it works for. I’m pretty sure it will work for many years – but you never know.

    I use it to store my photography. If you run on Windows do search online for performance tweaks as there is some latency when accessing. Once I tuned caching etc the device worked perfectly

    Very fast read/write, small and light enough to carry around, no moving parts to be careful with, black but with a little bit of orange, so I’m less likely to lose it somewhere. I like it a lot.

    The drive is compact and very fast. It also does not require a separate power source unlike some drives making it ideal for travelling. Have ordered a second one to replace and older portable drive as this is so much faster than the older usb2 types.

    I bought this because of a faulty SSD I was using was making my downloads extremely slow. When I unplugged the faulty SSD and used this it made the download speed so much faster. What use to take 1-3 hours now installs within 30 minutes. Definitely would recommend if you’re downloading large games, transferring/downloading huge files or need extra space for work projects.

    First delivery just had an empty box 🙁 but replacement had the drive inside 🙂

    Really slow at first, until I unrealised most of my USB are USB2 and not USB3. Once I used the right port it was pleasingly fast.

    Only lose a star as the cable included feels quite cheap and poorly made.

    Golden Review Award: 3 From Our UsersIt works, as I’ve tried several before getting one… l purchased this to work with my cars “Dashcam”… It’s a C class 300… this for any other drivers looking for more space to record and an actual drive that works… Works for myself…

    Golden Review Award: 4 From Our UsersI have no complaints, everything is excellent, I thought that the orange insert was active and would light up when connected. The price isn’t bad, hopefully, it will last a long time. However, it hasn’t been thoroughly tested yet.

    Golden Review Award: 6 From Our UsersOne of the best solutions for portable and sturdy SSDs – great brand!
    If you lose the USB-C cable provided, ensure to buy a ‘data’ cable replacement (not to be confused with a regular USB-C power cable as your transfer speeds will suffer.

    Golden Review Award: 3 From Our UsersBeautifully designed, very tactile and very good transfer speed. The only criticism is that the cable that comes with it is too stiff for a lightweight device. It prevents positioning of the drive where you want to put it..

    Golden Review Award: 3 From Our UsersIve used various memory sticks, and always use sandisk cards in my DSLR. that is what I have bought this device for to store my photos. safe, light, fast speeds all I want as an amateur highly reccomend.

    Golden Review Award: 3 From Our UsersBought this SSD (M.2 SSD internally) to use as an external drive for an iPad Pro with USB-C but also connects to my iMac with USB, the USB-C cable has an adapter to use USB. Connected it to the iMac and formatted using APFS then moved pictures etc to the iPad, accessing with the “Files” app.

    It’s a nice lightweight SSD and pretty rugged and waterproof

    Didn’t have enough space for Baldur’s Gate 3 or Starfield. The external drive works really fast and both games load quickly. The drive is quite light. The lead is quite short but the space in the device mean you can hang it from another lead to stop from hanging.

    Smaller and lighter than i expected which is a plus. Fits in your trouser pocket easily and is a great memory size to store whatever you need.
    Cable is a but small for dangling of edge of iPad when watching films but since the SSD is so light, theres no strain on the socke

    Golden Review Award: 3 From Our UsersI’ve been a loyal customer of SanDisk for quite some time now, and the SanDisk Extreme 2TB portable NVMe SSD continues to impress me with its exceptional performance and reliability. This is actually my third purchase of this fantastic device, and I felt compelled to share my positive experience.

    First and foremost, the speed of this SSD is simply mind-blowing. With read speeds of up to 1050MB/s and write speeds of 1000MB/s, it’s like having a turbocharger for my data transfers. Whether I’m transferring large video files or working on intensive photo editing tasks in Lightroom, this SSD handles everything with ease. It significantly reduces the time I spend waiting for files to load or transfer, making my workflow smoother and more efficient.

    The durability of this SSD is another standout feature. Its water and dust-resistant design give me peace of mind when I’m on the go. I can confidently take it with me on outdoor shoots or in less-than-ideal conditions without worrying about data loss. SanDisk has truly built a device that can withstand the rigors of real-world use.

    Moreover, the sleek black design of this SSD is not only aesthetically pleasing but also functional. It’s compact and lightweight, making it easy to carry in my bag or pocket. The USB-C connectivity ensures fast and hassle-free connections with my various devices.

    What I appreciate most about the SanDisk Extreme 2TB portable NVMe SSD is its excellent value for money. SanDisk consistently delivers top-notch performance and durability at a price that won’t break the bank. In fact, I’ve made it a yearly tradition to upgrade to a new one because the improvements are always worth it.

    First the good points.
    It actually lives up to all that SanDisk claims of it. It is super fast. So far it has been very reliable. It is much smaller than I was expecting, but that is a good thing it isn’t a bulky normal-sized SSD, this makes it so very easy to carry with you, It ALMOST fits in my wallet. It is also USB C, rather than the traditional SSD weird USB, making it much more compatible I use it it on my iMac, MacBook, Windows 11 and my Linux server with absolute ease. I love it.

    HOWEVER: It has one major flaw, it has no activity light, so it is very difficult to tell if you have plugged in properly and, much more importantly, when it has actually been fully ejected. If SanDisk ever does another version of this I hope they include an activity light (and make it small enough to fit in my wallet); then it will be perfect. Despite this, I recommend this SSD

    Golden Review Award: 2 From Our UsersWell-known reliable quality brand, good capacity, size and weight.
    If you’re going to use one of these as I did, to make an image of your laptop disk for protection against losing your system and all the contents, then you want to have something totally reliable to store it on.
    I doubt you’ll find much better than this, so its worth every penny. There’s also a nice little case available to keep it in!

    Golden Review Award: 7 From Our UsersDuring a promotional period, I made the decision to purchase this product. In my assessment, it’s an excellent hard drive that boasts rapid responsiveness. I’ve employed it to store the video files related to a feature film I recently shot. One noteworthy advantage is that I can edit the content directly on this device without encountering any delays, eliminating the need to transport it to the picture editor for further editing. I found its functionality to be so satisfactory that I proceeded to order an additional unit.

    5.0 out of 5 stars One of the best SSD

    Golden Review Award: 5 From Our Users4atab for this price in this compact size is marvelous. I’ve already had the 1TB for a year and it’s great. I’ve read in other review that both these do start disconnecting. I had this problem too but bought a new high bandwidth cable cable and its solved it. Now I’ve got this 4TB one and I’m just as happy with that. It is fast. Really fast. 510Gb transfer worked out to be 3 seconds a gig. It ain’t 1 second. But it’s enough.

    Golden Review Award: 3 From Our UsersApparently my worst delivery with Amazon is for my most expensive order. Cannot believe how you treated this tiny little box..I’m speechless

    Product – tiny lovely and wonderful gadget. A bit manipulated by the advertising speed tho…. it gets to around 80mb when I copy the data over….

    Grate delivery time , grate value for money .
    Very fast and ssd. I truly recommend it !

    Golden Review Award: 5 From Our UsersThe investment is truly justified in terms of value for money. Having purchased it a few days ago, I’ve begun transferring all my data from various PCs and laptops. It’s notably swift in writing data compared to other products, and its compact, portable design is a plus. However, it’s important to note that data transfer speed can fluctuate between 80-200 MB per second, potentially influenced by the speed of your PC or laptop. This is due to the bidirectional limitation in data transfer, so it’s advisable not to anticipate exceedingly high speeds on your computer or laptop. Nevertheless, this speed proved satisfactory for me, allowing me to move approximately 1 TB of data in just a few hours.

    Golden Review Award: 2 From Our UsersI love how fast the SSD is but I must say that I bought for one price and they decreased a lot after 1 month so I got a bit sad with that. If you have the chance to wait they normally will cost you cheaper.

    Golden Review Award: 9 From Our UsersOn three operating systems (Mac, Linux Debian, Windows 10) I have had the same problem. I run an experiment and capture approximately 20Gb->300Gb of data in RAM and then offload it via USB3 to the SanDisk device – I get around 200M bytes/s – not blistering, but fast enough. The problem comes when I have another large file to write, the card just has zero bytes transfer. It sits there for a couple of minutes and then resumes. The files are written correctly, the CRC of the original and copy are the same. It does get very hot, even when idle, much hotter when writing, perhaps it is a thermal problem?
