Customers are saying
Customers recognize the Extreme Portable 2TB External USB-C NVMe SSD as highly portable and appreciate its excellent overall performance and compact size. The generous storage capacity is also frequently praised. While some users noted that the drive can get warm during extended use and that the included cable is short, these concerns are less prevalent than positive feedback.

Not so sure anymore...
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Have a bunch of these and am getting nervous as they are starting to have issues. Also, I wound up buying my own apple branded cables since the ones they come with don't seat well into the drive.

Get the firmware update
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.After buying this read news stories about data loss and WD issuing firmware updates. I have used Sandisk for many years before WD brought them. I have always expected quality and performance and durability from Sandisk and WD but this news about sudden data loss and a possible lawsuit make me wonder about the quality of the brand. Its still working it I’m getting a different brand device as a secondary backup.

Works as advertised
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Averages around 700 MBps write and 800 MBps read on a USB C (USB 3.2 Gen2) interface so reasonably close to the rated maximum speed. Connected to an Apple silicon MacBook Pro. Drive formatted with APFS (encrypted).

||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this for a bout a month ago. I didn't notice any fault. It is fast and in good quality.
I would recommend this to a friendComputer backup
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I took my computer in to help solve photo problem and I ended up buying external disc. The Geek individual recommended I CLEAN computer and backup files. I believe they forgot to back it up because I do not have my original apple softwares, no email, not able to load photos from other app, lost some documents, etc. It is a mess, my computer does not function the same as it did and the programs/software they loaded is out of date and it just NOT my original system. Jared Phelps gave me his email to contact him if I had problems and I have emailed him 3 times and he has not responded and this has been over several weeks. I need an appointment to get this resolved. I believe the GEEK SQUAD achanged/ruined my computer systems and DID NOT BACK IT UP.

Great Photo Backup

I would recommend this to a friendCrashed on me twice! Buy Samsung SSD instead!
||Posted . Owned for 7 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Crashed on me twice! I've never had an SSD crash on me. Let alone twice! That's unheard of. These San Disk SSDs are complete garbage. And the Best Buy Total Tech program is completely worthless because Best Buy wouldn't even give me instore credit despite the insane amount of money I spend with them. Never buying San Disk again. Samsung only!
