    Got the Sandisk for a last minutiae file extraction/ transfer! Over 900gbs in the drive no issues, and transferred everything over seamlessly, and quickly! Needed it quick, so I’m glad I was able to snag it from Best Buy right before they closed!

    Great for storing files. Quick file transfers. Compared to LaCie, and the old Samsung external ssd, this one is compact and easy to use. Downloading the Sandisk software when you first insert it into your computer gives your external SSD an added sense of security as to who will be able to see your files, as they will need to figure out the password that can be set with the Sandisk program. Great buy, great quality, spectacular performance for the price

    THIS IS GREAT. It's small, fast and reliable. No issues whatsoever. I've been using it for a year now as my MacBook backup. It's used every day. I have a lot of SSD's and Hard drives. This is actually my favorite. I have some that I think are supposed to be faster like my Samsung portable X5 But the SanDisk actually seems faster to me. That's just the feeling I get and not the result of a scientific head to head test.

    I have been slow to jump on the SSD train, and I am wondering why I waited so long! I travel a lot for work while also running my photography business on the side and these small SSD's really make a difference in the weight of my bag, as well as I don't have to worry about if they get bumped around a lot. Transfer speeds are extremely fast compared to my external hard drives. Highly recommend!

    I've come to trust SanDisk as a brand. I've not had any issues with their products. Never had to use customer service for anything. This unit is simple plug in and load it with files. It's great storage, quick and easy. Everything's getting more pricy, but this is/was a good value.

    I love it - perfect size - it's small, but not easy to lose like a USB stick - and great capacity for home use. I hook it up to my laptop and then edit and transfer photos from my Amazon/Google/Dropbox accounts as I watch TV and free up cloud storage. I bought on sale and so feel as though I got good/fair price.

    Picked this up to backup my computer. Works great. Fast and quite. Since then I've also begun to use it for storage of music and TV from my HTPC and again, works great.

    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.

    This portable Sandisk usb drive is extraordinary for its convenience and high density of memory in such a small container. I love that I can save/backup all my school-related files as well as my high density music files in this small gadget, with lots of room to spare. It’s also a highly reliable little gadget that I know I can depend on when I need it.

    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.
