    SanDisk is the only Solid State external Hard Drives that I buy. I am very pleased with Solid State vs my slower externals. When using a Time Machine Slow is Fine, but if you are working with Photos you need speed for Editing, Coping, Opening etc. This is the brand and size to use. Make sure to Format for your computer and you will be good to go.

    …what more could you ask for from a portable drive? I have 4 other Samsung drives if varying sizes - they are reliable and sturdy. Can be thrown in camera bag or backpack with no worries. Got this one on a great sale too!

    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.

    Fast - Works with Apple M2

    Extremely fast - The old drive I was using was a 7200rpm HDD, which seemed fast enough, until I starting using this drive. WOW...what an difference! I transfered 500 gb's at once on my Macbook AIr to the 7200 HDD, and it took 26hrs. The same transfer from the Macbook Air to this drive took less than 2 hours. Recently upgraded to the new Macbook Air M2, and still use my 10 yr old Macbook Air along side. This drive works excellent on both machines. So can confirm there are no issues with a Mac using the M2 chip.
