    Perfect SSD for my workflow!

    I use this SSD for my editing workflow between my Mac Studio and MacBook Pro, and it makes everything super easy. I can work at home, unplug, and pick right back up on the go with no hassle. It’s really fast over Thunderbolt—I edit video straight off it and transfers are quick. The build feels solid too, so I don’t worry about taking it with me. If you’re moving between setups or working on the go, this drive is 100% worth it.

    Phenomenal speed

    If you are looking for a rugged Thunderbolt 3 external drive- look no further. This is the one. One M2 MAC write speeds exceed those advertised and are at roughly 2500 Mbp/s

    Excellent

    Excellent Disk I connected it to a Mac mini M2 and it gave me a speed of 2700 mb/s writing.. I had read a review that said that it only reaches 1000 mb/s but I discovered that changing the cable for a Thunderbolt 4 reaches 3000 mb/s and if it does not reach that speed you just have to exchange the ends of the cable and ready normally the cables bring a mark make sure it is Marce look up.

    Sandisc 2tb rugged drive

    I had to download the instructions manual off the Internet . It wasnt recognized by windows ,it was formated for Macbook from factory . I had to go to device manager and follow instructions from sandisc website to format the drive for windows. Not very easy if you don't know how . Anyhow it's working and thunderbolt is working ,it's as though the drive is connected inside the laptop .
