fast, portable, rugged usb c drive
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Pros: - Very solid and well built design. An IP55 rating to show dust and water resistance is a nice benefit. The device is very portable—about the size of a pack of gum. - This drive is FAST. Both read and write speeds are very quick. I was able to transfer a feature length movie in seconds when using a USB C port on each side. - This drive was very easy to set up. All I had to do was plug it into my computer and it worked. Cons: - This drive did not work with my phone. According to my research it has to do with how much power the drive is able to pull from the USB port. So if you were looking to expand your phone storage, this is not the drive for you. - The cord included with the drive is really short, which I’ve found to be inconvenient.

Extreme is a great name!
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Extreme is a great name for this! It is so light I wasn't sure there was anything in the box. For a speed test I ran a copy from an internal SSD to a USB spinny disk and the SanDisk Extreme. I transferred approximately 750GB (~10k files) to each drive using the same port on my computer. The spinny drive took 2:23:14 and the SanDisk Extreme took only 0:57:34. That's 60% faster!

Great SSD
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.SanDisk - Extreme 1TB External USB Type-C (NVMe) Portable Solid State Drive This 1TB WD SanDisk Extreme portable SSD has everything going for it. It’s light (1.76 ounces), spacious (1T) and lightning fast when compared to the previous older hard drives. The 1Terabyte offers ample storage for your files, photos and videos. It’s dust-proof and water resistant, and its small, compact size provides for easy portability of your files when you’re traveling. It offers password protection to secure your files from prying eyes. There’s a built-in loop which allows you to secure the drive to a belt loop or backpack. Finally, it offers drop protection as well as X-ray and shock resistance. In addition to the drive itself, there’s also a USB Type-C to USB Type-A adapter included in the box, making it compatible with most PCs and Macs. And it includes free virus protection. It comes with a five-year manufacturer’s warranty for both parts and labor. Bottom line, this SSD checks all the boxes. Highly recommended.
