    Be careful with the SanDisk Extreme SSDs. I had a few and one failed on me (the others still work). If it's functional, the speeds are great, but I personally don't like risking storage on a known defective product

    My 3rd one, 2/3 have been unreliable

    This is my 3rd Sandisk Extreme. My second unreliable one. I deeply wish I could recommend this. My first model of the slower model of these was great for the first year. Now it's unreliable as well. My first Sandisk Extreme was not the "pro" model but I edited from it nearly every day. It was the 500gb model and I lost the cord nearly right away. I replaced the cord with an amazon basics USB C cord and it worked great for over a year! Then I needed to upgrade space since I was becoming more pro. I got the 2TB version of the "non-pro" model. I was doing a MASSIVE project, filling most of the drive in one go, and the drive kept interrupting the transfer. It was lightning fast for about 3gbs of data and then would abort the transfer. I pegged it for overheating, so I used the slower cord of Amazon basics and it actually helped, but still aborted transfer. So I transferred it for the "pro" model, paying the extra cost for the increased reliability. Nope. 2 months in and this drive is now not being read by our computer. We are putting WEDDINGS on this drive, events that will never be recreated again. I'm very lucky we have multiple backups, this unreliability is unacceptable for the "pro drive. And the drive is unreadable?? It was doing great for the first 2 months, but for as expensive as this is, it had better be reliable for years, especially considering the "pro" moniker. Idk, I still have Sandisk SD cards, but I have since started using the Samsung T7 drives and have had ZERO issues with them for DAILY PROFESSIONAL USE. So Eff these drives, I want my money back. Go Samsung for your hard drives as far as I'm concerned.
