Customer Ratings & Reviews

My primary drive on my desktop was a 256 gig ssd with a 1tb sata slave drive. My Steam folder was over 300 gigs so I had to use the sata drive. Games ran like crap, so I bought this external ssd to play games off of. Best investment I made. Performance, frame rate all went waaayyy up, and I can just plug it into my laptop as well and play from that.

This device is so easy to use. Absolutely Plug and Play and the quality is amazing! The storage is incredible. I highly recommend.

Pretty fast SSD. With the recent price drops, the SanDisk Extreme is a great value for anyone who needs portable or small-format storage. I love that I can clip it to a laptop bag & take it with me when I travel, and the USB-C plug delivers fast transfer speeds for MacBook users.

Got his on sale for a great price so can't complain. Nothing special though.

I use this for Time Machine backup for Mac. Compared to previous external HD drive this is extremely fast.

I wanted memory that would work with the iPhone 4K and 60 fps setting on the camera. This fixes the problem. It is large enough and fast enough. Exactly what is needed to do full ProRes.

Fast, compact storage I am not scared to carry around. I have had older spinning rust external drives fail on me over the years and with this SSD I am not worried. This drive is fast and compact. The drive can heat up when transferring lots of data so keep that in mind so it has some air flow around it.

So far this is an excellent Hard-drive. It works quickly doesn't seem to get too hot. The rugged exterior is an extra layer of projection for computer data. While this is a more expensive product it's totally worth it so far. It doesn't have extra cumbersome software taking up hard drive space and Best Buy seems to provide really aggressive discounts also (large discounts that B&H and other electronic stores).

This little Solid State Drive is 1gb and very portable in pocket or whatever. Excellent security, however difficulty with having it active if you leave it connected to your computer after sleep mode or shutdown, has to be unplugged and re-plugged to recognize. I am using encrypted pwd-activated mode. May be different if you are using unencrypted mode.

Very durable and tough. SanDisk is one of the oldest memory chip companies.

I highly recommend this device for backup storage or moving files from one computer to another Very fast and easy to use Also all files can be password protected EZ to carry. This is a must have from home to office

good job and delivered quickly thanks A++++++++++++++++++++++++++++Seller! and a good deal at best buy thanks

I had purchased a 256GB version of this to use as a backup for my laptop. When I started needing to share my computer with my roommate I quickly ran out of space and so I bought this 1TB one. I love that it has both a USB A and USB C connection, and it's so quick that its my laptop that is the bottleneck when transferring large files.

Tons of storage. Fast download speeds. Great price for what you get

Love that this came with my camera purchase! I have used several different hard drives before. This one is really great, quick, and not super chunky so fits in my travel camera bag very nicely!

Amazed with how small the device is and how much it could store, works right out of the box when plugging to usb C S23 and UsBC ipad gen 10, doesn't work with older iphone with lightning even with lightning camera adapter

SanDisk really came through with this portable SSD. It is the perfect size and the transfer speeds are optimal. I was initially looking at purchasing a regular portable hard drives for cost savings, but SSD's are worth the extra money. After doing my own research and speaking with a Best Buy expert, I took the dive with SanDisk. I wouldn't hesitate for a moment to recommend this device.

It’s really small like very very small. Fits in the palm of your hand. But besides that I love the password security feature. Fast and reliable. Great buy but be careful because it’s so small you can easily misplace it.

Four stars because it has only been in use for a month, so I have no sense of how reliable SSD will turn out to be compared to rotating media. Reliability is my most important criterion. If a drive fails and you lose data, it doesn't matter how fast, compact or pretty it was, I am using this SSD as the principal data storage on a new desktop so it gets a workout. Using external data storage is the best way I've found to get back in business after a hardware failure. I will probably buy another SanDisk SSD to replace my current backup external hard-drive as soon as I am comfortable with its reliability.

If you Take lots of cell phone pictures, this is a great little device to offload them to (can find adaptors for your model cell phone on the Interwebs). Super fast read and write speeds and even built in encryption for both windows and iOS. You won’t be disappointed with solid State hard drives
