    Fast speeds and large storage for a portable SSD drive. Runs a little hot, but it's not like I'm constantly touching it while it's plugged into the computer.

    Love how small this hard drive is. I had to format it so I could use it on both PC and MacBook. Works seamlessly on both operating systems and syncs to each device right away. We like the ample 2TB storage for music production files.

    Size is smaller than what I thought, which made it better for me since I hate bulky items. Super fast speeds. Copied about 150GB of pictures and videos from my laptop in a matter of minutes

    Sale Price is decent, and it is FAST at backing up

    OF Course I do backup my personal files (including SLR Photography efforts), and keep that in case anything happens (I have had hard drives fail before). The price was excellent (given the sale price), and this SSD is quite a bit SMALLER than the previous hard drives, which makes it far more convenient). I like the hole (which I use to put it on a lanyard when I am out and about doing my photography (backing up my SD Cards when they are full), and this helps tremendously. All in all, a good purchase for my purposes, and it easily connects to my laptop so that I can process any photographs I backed up easily enough.

    Super portable, tons of memory (2T)! Best Buy matched prices for an even better deal. Love shopping at Best Buy - so much is in stock and ready to take home. Comes with data transfer cable.

    SanDisk external USB-C: More than meets the eye

    The SanDisk external USB-C is an excellent portable HD! The speed alone almost outdoes the 2TB size of my new toy. Versatility is not stopped at portability either, as the USB-C device has an adapter head for USB; I plug in to my laptop, and then my phone just like that.

    I've had no issues with the reliability of this item to date and the transfer rate seems to be good. Convenient size for an SSD, the loop is also a nice touch to use with a carabiner to clip onto a key chain or similar. Availability in different colors is also helpful to distinguish between drives.

    Great external SSD for my Macbook Pro

    I have a MacBook Pro 2019 model, 512GB. I was running out of space. So, I picked this up to store my games and other applications, as well as data. Formatted with APFS, which is supposed to be the best file system for solid-state drives. Works great! No problems at all. I started by using it for Time Machine backups. Worked fine there as well. But, changed it as I needed a standard external drive more than another Time Machine backup drive. I tested the USB speed, and it is indeed as advertised with both read and write speeds of about 1 Gbps. So, certainly not as fast as the SSD inside the Macbook, but certainly fast enough for my needs. Highly recommended.
