    I love this little SSD storage device. I’ve bought a couple of them. (I must confess, I got them on sale for $99. That is a scoop… especially for a 1 TB size.) These are only 2” x 4”, weigh less than 2 ounces, fit nicely in the hand; and, they have a very convenient, decent sized carabiner loop on the upper right side of the device. The rubberized coating is very nonslip. Transfer rates? Approximately 1 GB per second! That’s fast! This comes with a [short] connecting cable that works with USB Type C or A (USB 3.2 Gen2). SanDisk has been a trusted supplier of these products for decades. As partial evidence, these have five-year parts and labor warranties!

    I bought this for my new laptop. It expands my memory limit so much. The laptop came with only 250gigs and windows 11 took a lot of space. It works great and doesn’t get to hot.

    This works perfect except for using android, mac, and PC. This is the fastest external I've purchase and no comments it's worth. However it gets hot that's the only issue when it's plug in too long
