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.

    Great drive with one minor issue

    So far this SSD has been OK at best. It’s great that it’s a sleek and small with a decent amount of storage, but I keep having issues with it showing up on my Mac. I plug the SSD into my PC and the drive is recognized just fine, but plugged into my Mac, can’t be recognized. I have to then plug it into my pc and run a diagnostic on it to fix it and then it works on my Mac. A bit annoying, but that’s my only issue with it. That inconvenience is what drove me to mark this as 3 stars. Otherwise the drive works well and is useful in the exact way I need it, to provide extra storage to my 500gb Mac and be lightweight, sleek, and easily stored into my travel gear.

    Its not the fastest drive out on the market but considering price to performance ratio, it's among the best. If you are looking for higher performancee then you might opt for pro varient which is somewhat expensive but offers twice the data bandwidth. Ensure that your device supports usb version 3.1 gen 2 to reap the actual benefits from these drives.

    I purchased this drive to replace an older portable drive that was starting to fail. I wanted a solid state drive for the reliability of having no moving parts. The speed of this drive is incredible. I’m thrilled with my purchase

    Portable USB SSD drives are super convenient. Fast copying of data, very light and compact. But, the larger capacity (2tb, 4tb) SanDisk Extreme Pro and Extreme SSDs have garnered a reputation for sudden and complete data loss. The parent corporation has addressed this problem by drastically dropping the price. If you can’t resist the sale, make sure that AT NO TIME you have your files exclusively on this drive alone.
