It does its job, no issues. Works fine, doesn’t take too much space.

Compared to the backup drives of the past (And I've got quite a few) .. this is not only TINY in size, but it is just as good at backup as the older ones (and faster to do so overall).
I tend to use the 4tb Drives for when I travel and enjoy my photography hobby -- that's the reason for this purchase. I also use it to hold such as recipes (From cooking schools I attend while traveling - I like to go to places were I can eat and get recipes too learning new techniques), my documents, and other miscellaneous content. (including my backup for my MP3/4 drive music files).

Lots of storage, fast external SSD with USB-C connectivity. However, if you plan on using it on a Macintosh, be aware that (as of Dec, 2021), it arrives formatted as ExFAT. And for software reasons related to Sandisk and/or Mac OS, it cannot be reformatted to HFS+/APS until these software issues are addressed by Apple/Sandisk. So, if you need HFS+/APS (for Time Machine, etc), I would hold off buying one until this issue is fixed.

I just want to clear the air for MAC users. I purchased this product in March 2022 after contacting Apple and they assured me that it works with Monterey. There were glitches in the beginning, but that was quickly solved. I set it up APFS, hooked it in to the thunderbolt connection on a iMAC 27" and it works fine while running MONTEREY.
The reason for my purchase was the PHOTO speed. With a Seagate which I love, it could not index and search. Now that Apple has come up with Photo identification this is a whole new world. Type a search for Bear and it separated, Koala Bear, Panda Bear, Teddy Bear and put the Black, Brown, Grizzly and Polar Bears together. It did not find a frog, but using reptile search there they were.

I'm a pro video editor. At the moment I'm using a M1 Max MacbookPro as my primary workstation. This small SSD has essentially replaced my old big clunky RAID! It's fast, been reliable for 7 months (so far), and fits in my pocket. Only negative is that when traveling I have to make sure not to lose it! (I actually hook it inside my laptop bag when on the go).
