    Next best thing in portable hard drive

    The age of portable HD is no more. SanDisk did a great job with this one. It is extremely light and portable. In fact, this hard drive is about the size of your credit card. Speed was great also. I was able to move roughly 80GB of my files in almost less than a minute. This only problem here is that they are still way too expensive. Try to buy them when they go on sale.

    I recently purchased the external hard drive, and I'm thoroughly impressed with its performance. It's fast, reliable, and has ample storage space. Transferring files is a breeze, and it's become an essential part of my digital life. Highly recommended!

    It's incredibly fast and I particularly like the form factor. They're thin and shaped nicely to fit in a pocket. Whether that's pants, shirt, bag or storage pouch, it's a good size. The edges are nicely rounded over (reduces the odds of damage when dropped) and the finish is easy to hang onto unlike some of the slick hard plastic enclosures some models use.

    I did not realize how small this was by the pictures showed online. This is honestly the best portable devices I have had. I am a photographer and I have always hated the bulk designs and I cannot use Flash Drives as they are way too slow for moving bulk raw files to my computer. This is a very good size for what it does and NVME makes it that much better. IT IS FAST

    I bought this to replace the stock 256 GB thumbdrive (in the glovebox) in my 2023 Tesla Model 3, and i can say almost 1 year later it has performed excellent. It keeps cool, run faster than needed, and performs even in hot environments. I’ve had no issue with corruption, lag, etc. Though I know this is a single use of millions of possible uses, I have recommended to everyone who has a Tesla to get this drive to store more Sentry Mode footage, store music, add custom horns and locking sounds, etc. In the Tesla glovebox the extender cable does make it sit a little weird, but it has not caused any vibration noise or worn/bent the cable.

    Fast! (and Compact) External SSD

    Let me preface this by saying that I only buy SanDisk SD cards for my cameras (Sony & Nikon) because of their legendary reliability. Since I've never had an issue with any SanDisk products that I purchased in the past, I decided to buy this external MVMe type SSD. I have a five-year-old iMac with a 1TB Fusion internal HD and it was getting sluggish at times (the spinning beach ball popping up constantly and stopping me in my tracks). After attaching the SanDisk SSD to a USB 3.0 port, reformatting and installing macOS Big Sur, I migrated all my software to the new SSD and made it my startup drive. What a difference! This SanDisk SSD is blazing fast and everything loads and runs so much quicker now. Spinning beach balls have virtually disappeared and it's almost like I have a new iMac on my desk! Highly reccomended.

    It's great, speedy, almost like having an internal drive. No lag. Small, USB-C and compliments the small 512gb SSD that came with my computer. Pared with my on-line storage, I have plenty of space. Great for photos, video editing. Got it on sale so an even better deal.

    I was looking for something portable to hold data since my laptop’s internal drive is getting full. This works perfectly. It was easy to set up and file transfer is fast. I had trouble getting the product registration completed but used SanDisk’s live chat and they were super helpful.
