Customers are saying

Customers consistently note the Extreme Portable 1TB External USB-C NVMe SSD's impressive portability, speed, and compact size. Many appreciate its large storage capacity and lightweight design. However, some users mention that the drive can get warm during use and that the included cable is shorter than desired. A few also find the price to be relatively high.

    This is super portable light weight and fast for a small form factor because it’s an ssd. It was on sale when I bought it but now I regret not buying another one to backup my photos on my phone to save space because the price went back up!!

    Fast! (and Compact) External SSD

    Let me preface this by saying that I only buy SanDisk SD cards for my cameras (Sony & Nikon) because of their legendary reliability. Since I've never had an issue with any SanDisk products that I purchased in the past, I decided to buy this external MVMe type SSD. I have a five-year-old iMac with a 1TB Fusion internal HD and it was getting sluggish at times (the spinning beach ball popping up constantly and stopping me in my tracks). After attaching the SanDisk SSD to a USB 3.0 port, reformatting and installing macOS Big Sur, I migrated all my software to the new SSD and made it my startup drive. What a difference! This SanDisk SSD is blazing fast and everything loads and runs so much quicker now. Spinning beach balls have virtually disappeared and it's almost like I have a new iMac on my desk! Highly reccomended.

    Have a 2TB backing up my PC. A 2TB & three 1TB drives to backup music files. Transfer rates are a bit better the my Western Digital spinnies. Have older laptops & PC which don’t have USB-C ports. Knew I was gonna the high transfer rates going in. Purchased the carrying cases for them too.

    I absolutely love SanDisk products for SSDs. This was no exception. I walked in asked the gentleman at front where I could location said product and was promptly seen to by a worker who unlocked the case. I was in and out of Best Buy in 10 minutes or less. As well as being able to backup my maxed out MacBook Pro. Great Product, worth the extra money over the cheaper brands

    if you take many pictures like myself 200 still shots a day, you need these. I need to see the amateur pictures that I took, in the future when I become a okay photographer, I will go back and see the progress.
