    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!

    Perfect for travel when you need to have storage on the GO! Decent read \write speeds and the case feels sturdy like it can take some bumps and bruises! The eye hole for a clip is also a nice feature to have.

    Very fast; short cable

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    Very fast, as an SSD should be. Gets warm to the touch, which is not a problem. USB-C cable that comes with it is very short: about 6 inches. I would prefer a longer one, but this one plugs into a port on the front of my Mac Studio, so is OK

    Sometimes it works

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I have one of these for pictures and media (works awesome) and i have one for just music (1gig) the music one works 30% of the time, my computer just wont see it as a external drive most of the time. So when i need to get to my stuff it sometimes works. Very frustrating! I feel there are better choces for SSD drives out now and soon will get a more reliable drive. I inly give it 3 star because one of them works good and other dont. Also nothing online to help this delema or through the company. At a loss
