    This is good but gets reformatted (pc or Mac) to the type of computer being used when moving over files. Meaning, if it is first used on a mac, it will only work and be registered amd formatted for mac computers, not PC. And vise versa.

    I was very disappointed to buy this product and have NO instructions on how to use it. I also looked online for help, but not instructions or information there. I had to make an appointment with my Geek Squad team and have them do the transfer of data for me.

    This is a good device and very rugged, and while it is faster than an HDD, even on a TB4 port not near as fast as advertised.

    COMMON PROBLEM NOT FIXED BY SANDISK - BEWARE

    Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I bought this hard drive believing that SanDisk was a reliable and reputable brand. The drive worked great for two or three weeks (I was running video-editing files off of it for a couple of hours at a time and never had any issues with it)... until I plugged it in yesterday, waited a while, and then got a message that it abruptly disconnected from my Mac, and now it will NOT show back up on my Mac. I scoured the SanDisk forums and found that this is a VERY common problem and that people have lost very important files after only a few uses, and SanDisk seems to offer no answers other than a replacement. The fact that I cannot trust this thing to hold my files makes it completely worthless, and I would never buy it again - it's not worth the risk. Sorry, SanDisk.
