Great storage device, it's lighting fast and has tones of storage. Easy to use no set up required. it has an usb c cable and an adapter fir usb a. high recomadation.

Extremely fast drive with good reliability. I like the 4TB capacity on mine and its good to use if you need to free up space on your local disk. It is a little pricey when you go for higher storage levels, but it is well worth the price. I use it on my 14inch MacBook Pro and have had no issues.

I needed at least 3TB in a hurry for a video project. This was perfect for my needs. I tested the write speed and it was over 4X as fast as my 2 TB external SanDisk drive.

I use these mostly for video editing and on set data management. They have been very consistent on both Windoes and Mac computers. Just to note, i have not seen a viable reason to justify the pro version. These work just as well and are just as fast.

I want to love these drives. They're fast, tiny, silent, and the price is right. But after my first couple months with two of these 4TB's, I would never buy a Sandisk again. I bought them specifically as shuttle drives for video shoots, and have also used them as edit drives with Premiere Pro. Maybe the third time I transferred with them, I had a strange experience where one of them simply unmounted from my laptop (14" MacBook M1 Pro). Didn't think much of it, chalked it up as maybe I jiggled a cable or something. A few weeks later, I came back from lunch and my Premiere project had crashed. Again, didn't think much of it, happens all the time. This week however, the real nightmare happened. Premiere crashed right in the middle of some very time consuming work, and the drive suddenly lost write access. I had to cycle it a few times for it to even come back online. Now having done and excessive amount of research, I see the rumblings on Reddit and elsewhere that these issues are not at all uncommon with these drives, and there's even a lawsuit about people losing their data. There's no way I would trust it with even low priority material after a failure like mine, and to see it so widespread is incredibly disheartening. For context, I'm a full time film editor and do small video projects in my spare time. I immediately formatted both these drives in APFS for working on my Macs, and only ever used the included cables. There is no reason why they should be failing this soon aside from a defect. Now of course I'm passed the return period for Best Buy, so it'll be a good test of the supposed 5 year warranty to see what happens next. I've since moved my project to a Samsung T7 and have had no issues the last few days. Can't give that one a glowing review just yet since it's early days, but it's definitely just as fast and portable, and runs noticeably cooler. Steer clear of these Sandisks and look at other brands.

This is an awesome small 4tb external hard drive, the only thing I noticed is that it gets very warm when using for long periods of time. My concern is overheating and potentially corrupting the data.

It's amazing that you can make a device that is so small and holds 4 TB of information .

This External drive is a lot smaller and less bulkier than the Non SSD versions that I use to save my documentation and worth the price I paid for it.

this SSD is really fast and very compact, I just love it and 4TB for the price is incredible!

Very fast transfer speed and stable/reliable storage.

Very unstable after 6 months of use. Almost lost all data. When I load data until it only has 1.9 GB of empty spaces, it becomes very hot. Then, the data is very unstable, and cannot be either transferred out or deleted.

Does what it's advertised to (small easy setup reliable name. Havent experienced what negative reviews have. I followed brief instructions. Mainly, eject via Windows before pulling usb plug. No external likes being jerked round, in my exerience.

Very useful and handy for it's size. An extremely good purchase

This is my second one that I have purchased. I do lots of videos for church services and this is a lifesaver because it holds a lot. Very fast!

its amazing to have access to this much storage in the size of a credit card.

Didnt take a long time to transfer and I assume it will last a long time before it runs out of storage for photography pictures, The amount of storage and efficiency was great.

Lightning fast drive! Needed more storage for our video team and it's nice to have a fast, slim, and low profile to take on the go to transfer files.

Love the large amount if space. Watch for a sale though.

as a photographer, traveling around Im just afraid that my priceless photo will not have a a safe place until I bought this sands hard drive

Sandisk Saves the day !!! Backed Up 2.75TB of Data from Law Office Server and Restored on New Server Much Faster than either a Network Transfer or Restoring from Backup
