    Solid State Drives, there's not much else needed to be said. If you want quality, buy a SanDisk SSD!

    I have tried so many different types of data storage devices for many years, but this tiny solid state drive takes the prize. It is truly plug and play. I chose the 2TB option and I was able to consolidate multiple drives onto one. I would highly recommend for ease of use.

    This was a really good answer to a problem of storage, many of the other storage devices that I had, would flake out and after transferring a high number of items, they will disappear or become on retrievable. I’m really happy with this.

    Made in Malaysia?

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I just picked up a 2TB drive from my local Best Buy today and noticed that the box and device both say Made in Malaysia when I thought these were made in China. I'm wondering if got a Grey Market or counterfeit product? The SanDisk lettering on the front of the device looks worn off already and I just purchased this brand new and unsealed the box. Is this how they are supposed to come now? The serial number on the back of the device is very hard to read and not clearly marked which is also suspicious. Can someone from SanDisk chime in? I will update this review upon further communication from SanDisk.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend

    SanDisk extreme 2T works just fine with my iPad Pro 2020. Have use them before and always was flawless. Quick and easy operation is a great deal to run across these days. I would buy one again cause I have. I own 4 of them now.

    Will never buy cheap memory storage again. I didn’t know how much speed played a part in these- this one is fast. Now, I need another because it makes all my older style ones look bad and I do not want to use them. This is great.

    Got this because I was running out of storage for all my family pictures and videos. The transfer speed on this is amazing. Now I don’t have to worry about space for a while. I will get another one to use with Final Cut Pro.

    Bought this SSD to increase the memory on my PlayStation 5. Formatting was easy and took only a minute. Transferring PS4 games to it was just as easy. Super fast game play from it as well. Great product.
