    Purchased the Sandisk Extreme Portable 1TB External to transfer RAW photo files from 2019 MacBook Pro 16" to 2020 iMac 27". Phenomenal! Speed is incredible on both upload to drive and download from drive. Very small, about 2"x4", and durable. Rubberized backing prevents drive from sliding on desktop. Couldn't be more satisfied.

    A Fine Portable Backup Device

    This works wonderfully well as a backup tool. I reformatted it to use a Linux file system and it has performed as expected. The size is perfect: easy to put in your pocket but big enough that you won't lose it.

    Works as it should, good buy. From a Linux fan: Microsoft Windows users beware--Windows refuses to install itself on removable devices like this. Don't know a work-around.

    Super fast read speeds. Works great with a ps5. I bought this ssd specifically for the ps5 and it took less than 30 seconds to format and ready for use. A little high price for a 1 tb. I wanted at least a 2tb but not willing to pay over $200 for an external hd right now. They really need to bring the prices down on these things

    Only disks I'll use without fear of breakdown. Fast as lightning for transferring large video files and always without error. Can be pricey, but often on sale at BB.

    This item is for my wife's new iMac desktop computer. She reports the external drive is working very well. There wasn't enough space on the new computer to accommodate all her files, etc. on her old desktop. So the external drive provides the additional space that she requires.

    It's as described, and files can be retrieved fast. My only "complaint" is that the cord is so short that it is hard to use with the laptop on my lap.

    I could not find a driver to download so I simply plugged the SanDisk into my MacBook. I then drug the folders and files that I wanted to backup and they appeared in the SanDisk. I opened a few files from the SanDisk and manipulated them. Everything worked properly. The SanDisk is very fast and works flawlessly.

    This device helps save enough space on my laptop. The upload and download speed works well. Once I have a thunderbolt port for a new laptop, this will eventually be much better for more full potential.

    A must in my opinion! All around speedy and great drive! Does what I need it to, store my files! does it effectively and I have piece of mind that if I accidently drop it, it can handle it with ease. Really fast write and read speeds, and looks cool on top of it all! Not cheap but you get what you pay for.

    Needed an external drive to store recording software music libraries and this drive does a great job of that. I considered the faster version, but the speed of this drive works just fine for my application. Small and compact, easy to use with my MacBook Pro M1 Pro and it just works.
