    Improved Build Quality Over Previous Versions

    I haven’t had a chance to use it yet, but my first impression is positive. The build quality feels noticeably better than previous versions, and it seems sturdy and well-made. Looking forward to putting it to use

Questions & Answers

  • Does this have password protection, specifically the same password protection on the SANDISK - Extreme Portable 1TB External USB-C NVMe SSD?

    Hi, thank you for contacting us. Please allow us to inform you that the SANDISK Portable Drive supports password-protected software encryption through the SANDISK app, but it doesn’t support password protection for the entire drive without a vault. If you’re looking for a drive with full-drive password protection, you may check out the compatible drives at (https://support-en.sandisk.com/app/answers/detailweb/a_id/53076).

  • That's not the question I asked. I was wondering if this external drive is compatible with the USB-A port on my computer

    Hi Kris, thank you for sharing your question again with more clarity. Please note that this drive can be used with a USB-A port by using a 'USB-C to USB-A' cable. Also, while it will work if you plug it into an older USB-A port, its performance will be significantly reduced due to the slower port. Please plug it directly into your computer rather than using a USB hub.

  • Is this unit compatible with USB-A?

    Hi Kris, thank you for reaching out. Please note that the SANDISK Portable SSD 1TB comes with a USB-C to USB-A cable, so you can connect it to a computer with a USB-A port. Please note that transfer speeds may vary depending on your device and USB port.

  • Hi, I am wondering if this SSD would work for backing up both my Macbook and my Iphone 11 pro?

    Hi Chandrika, thanks for reaching out. You can use the SANDISK portable SSD to back up your MacBook. However, your iPhone 11 Pro has a Lightning port, so you would need a compatible drive, as this external SSD comes with a USB Type-C connector. You might want to consider SANDISK flash drives with a Lightning connector that are available in different capacities.
