Customer Ratings & Reviews

I love the device, it really small, blazing fast and easy to carry around. I'm using it as my MacBook time machine, highly recommended.

I needed a new storage device for my pictures after my laptop died. I didn’t want to risk losing years of memories. This is tiny and does the job. I bought a storage case on Amazon.

These things are SCARY fast and reliable. I have a bunch, and they’re the only SSD i’ve ever used. If you’re storing big files on an external drive, this is the one to get!

The SanDisk Extreme Portable 1TB SSD is a fantastic compact storage solution. Its USB-C NVMe interface delivers blazing-fast transfer speeds, perfect for handling large files or backups on the go. The rugged, water- and dust-resistant design ensures durability, while the sleek black finish looks great. It’s lightweight, portable, and compatible with both PC and Mac. Though slightly pricey, its performance, build quality, and 1TB capacity make it an excellent investment for professionals and enthusiasts alike. Highly recommended for reliable, high-speed storage!

High speeds at such a small footprint Highly recommend for photographers, videographers, or even for general storage needs

The sales rep at Best Buy recommended this SanDisk portable drive and said that it would provide quick backups. Boy, was he right! Whereas my 2015 technology drive took more than two hours to backup my Mac, this new drive takes less than 3 minutes. Amazing!!

Super fast. It took a little over 10 secs to put a 4k video at 7gbs on this drive. Compared to a little over 2 minutes on my Seagate external hard drive. I bought a longer cord from Amazon and it’s a difference of 1 second. I wanted a 2tbsbut it was out of my price range. Technically I need 4tbs but that price is over 400. That’s why I am keeping my Seagate because it is 4tb. Also I glad I bought this one because it is compatible to my M1 IMAC, where the Seagate I cannot put anything on it from my M1. I can only view items from it and can’t save changes. Also for Mac users, it comes with a usb-c cord and there is no need for an adapter. I highly recommend this Sandisk SSD.

This nifty little drive is SO convenient! Smaller than a typical portable hard drive, yet larger and sturdier than a typical flash drive - it is just what I needed for storing files that I need to have readily available but don't have space for on my internal hard drive.

Excellent, fast download and upload speeds. Small and portable.

Love the product. It’s amazing for storing your own data, pictures and videos. It’s has a lot of storage which I find amazing.

I bought this one particularly to use it on my PS5 as we know PS5 storage is sort of limited and no real expansion NVME is available now, however, you can plug an external SSD and play your PS4 games off of it in your PS5. That is exactly what I used it for and by God this one delivers. The load times is as fast and in some cases (The Last Of Us 2) it loads even faster than the internal SSD ( I don't know why). So if you are buying this for your next gen console storage I highly recommend this. Its compact and its great value if you get the deal price. It also has amazing transfer speed on my laptop to from NVME internal drive to this SSD. I have the previous gen SSD of this model and it is actually twice as fast transferring data. So get it now if you are looking for an external SSD.

I bought this to tranfer my files from a university email address that was shutting down. I easily transferred all my files. Super user-friedly! Goes with both Mac and Windows. Very light and thin, easy to store long term!

I am Leary about backing up my data especially items containing sensitive information to any cloud. I prefer to keep such items backed up locally. I found the SanDisk Extreme Portable 1TB external drive to be just the answer I needed. It is fast and reliable, and the physical size make it easy to store or transport if necessarily.

I am really enjoying this purchase, I had a ton of photos I took for some sports photography and beach photos to get from my camera to my computer to a drive. This product works great!

I 1000% recommend this hard drive. I am a wedding photographer so the security of my raw images is my top priority. I have used LaCie, Western Digital passports and other external hard drives and have had 3 drives fail on me before. I have never had a problem with these Sandisk's. They are small, durable and fairly quick for editing on the go. I will always use SSD from here on out and these drives are my go-tos! I have three of these and will probably be ordering another one soon lol.

Despite many claims from others that these drives do not perform well or are failing on them, they are not for me. (*knock on wood*) I use multiple of these drives for my Video Production company and have had great experiences using them for a wide array of footage types and use in high demand video editing / storage scenarios. I travel with them, drop them and probably spill water on them every now and again -- they've been able to withstand it all.

This product is so easy to use! It’s a real plug and play product. The only thing that you need to know is that if you want it separately downloaded then you must do it one by one

One of the best external hard drives in the game. 1 TB is LOT for such a compact and teeny thing. This is great if you’re a photographer/videographer - OR if you’re a recent college grad / comp sci student with text books / scripts - etc that you want to store on an external drive. It may seem pricey but it’s worth investment just to store items that you aren’t 100% sure you want to keep locally.

This thing is tiny!!!! I have been wanting a portable SSD. Not to use as a main drive for backups but, given the 1TB of space I have been able to use it as that and a go between for my files and others files as well. It is quick! Given it being an SSD and USB-C that much is expected. I love that I can toss it in my bag and not have to worry about it! My only gripe is I wish that the cable was longer *that may cause an impact in performance I guess?* or something was included like a stand so it wouldn't put a bunch of tension on your USB port depending on the layout of your PC. Laptop users need not worry though!

This external SSD is a must-have! It's easy to use and super fast to transfer/retrieve pictures and videos within seconds. I had an old external hard drive and it took forever to backup/transfer data. Also, you don't have to worry about losing your data since there are mechanical parts. Plus, it comes with a USB-C cable and a USB-C to USB-A adaptor.
