    Bought with a great sale and very happy with the ease of use. I wanted something for extra photo/video storage and the files transfer with a couple clicks using the C to C USB cable provided.

    This drive is awesome! It offers a lot of value for a really good price. The read and right speeds are very fast and sufficient for 4K video editing. I would recommend this model over the X10Pro model. Most computers can’t even take advantage of the input the X10Pro requires for its faster speeds. I highly recommend the X9Pro model for the value and performance it offers.

    Bought this drive due to the WD SSD external drive not being SMART enabled. Apparently Sandisk took away SMART feature on the WD external SSD drives when Sandisk took over the WD SSD external drives . This Crucial drive is SMART enabled.

    Terrific little, and I mean little, machine. It’s a fairly speedy guy although I’m getting 70 to 75% of the advertised 1050 megabytes per second on a M1 MacBook Pro. I’m happy with the little guy!

    Happy with this drive, decided on Pro after digging into details. It'll give me Time Machine backups for my aging Macbook Air M1 one one partition and room for playing around with saved files from some audio recording projects. Nice since I opted not to pay for a large drive in the mac. Reusable for another mac for it's audio production capabilities, when the M1 ages out.

    Love it! It's super quick and relatively small. It took 45 seconds to transfer over 2000 files. Exactly what I was looking for to store my files, I just need to buy one more just like it so I have a backup.

    This SSD is great! It's tiny enough to fit in the smallest of fake pockets on women's jeans and it's fast enough for what I needed. No complaints here.
