    Super fast read speeds. Works great with a ps5. I bought this ssd specifically for the ps5 and it took less than 30 seconds to format and ready for use. A little high price for a 1 tb. I wanted at least a 2tb but not willing to pay over $200 for an external hd right now. They really need to bring the prices down on these things

    Works great, very fast. I use it to edit my videos in Premiere and it happens to run fairly well due to the high transfer apeedsp. Great product overall, not too big either!

    I could not find a driver to download so I simply plugged the SanDisk into my MacBook. I then drug the folders and files that I wanted to backup and they appeared in the SanDisk. I opened a few files from the SanDisk and manipulated them. Everything worked properly. The SanDisk is very fast and works flawlessly.

    So far this has worked exactly as expected. Fast enough read write speeds and have been using it pretty extensively for over six months. The only downside is it's kinda pricey for what you get, might be better off waiting for a sale.

    A must in my opinion! All around speedy and great drive! Does what I need it to, store my files! does it effectively and I have piece of mind that if I accidently drop it, it can handle it with ease. Really fast write and read speeds, and looks cool on top of it all! Not cheap but you get what you pay for.

    Offloaded lots of data to this external SSD drive. It was quick, easy, and very compact. There was also a cable to ensure high read/write speeds. Very nice.

    Needed an external drive to store recording software music libraries and this drive does a great job of that. I considered the faster version, but the speed of this drive works just fine for my application. Small and compact, easy to use with my MacBook Pro M1 Pro and it just works.

    I love this portable drive. It is so fast and efficient! I currently use it to save photos and videos from my phone to free up the internal memory space. I was pleasantly surprised and delighted with the speed transfer.

    Love this, it comes with both a usb-c and usb-a connection. Easy to use and setup. I do wish you could could encrypt just certain folders vs the whole drive. This is very fast and very portable and great for extended storage. It's not contest between this and an HDD.

    SanDisk - Extreme Portable 1TB External USB-C NVMe SSD drive definitely transfers data rather quickly compared to my other older SSD drives. I like that it is compact and also has an adapter included to transfer from USB-A.

    If you just want some extra memory or don’t want to take up room on your device but need access to your stuff, this is the device for you. It’s super slim, compact and lightweight but offers so many storage options to meet almost every person’s needs in terms of memory.

    Great product. Handles all the needs of an external hard drive and the plus is that it’s small.

    When connected to my Microsoft Surface Book 3 I see +900MB\sec transfer speeds which is absolutely incredible. Most advertised speeds on devices like this are garbage. Oddly when connected to my Surface Studio 2 maxed out around 600MB\sec. I love the size and build of the device. I can see me using this for the next decade.

    This is my external storage and working drive for my MacBook Pro. All of my client and working files are here. Its is super fast and the files are accessed as quickly as if it was an internal drive. Its has no no issues with connection or stability. I am getting a second one to back up the first.

    This little SSD feels solid and transfers data very fast. I use it as an external copy of my important data that also lives in the cloud. You never know when a cloud service may stop working or you may lose access. I'm going to also use it to store large videos on that I'm editing on my iPad Pro.

    Great extended storage for PS5

    Bought this to to play backwards compatible PS4 titles on my PS5. The speed is almost as fast as the internal storage. Drive gets very warm, but zero issues so far. Highly recommended for use with the PS5 console. Only downside is the included USB cable is only about three inches long, so keep that in mind when purchasing.
