    Great Little Hard Drive

    Great performance, absolute portability, and shock and water resistance make this hard drive a great option for those that need to carry large amounts of storage capacity around. Even in 2018, when pretty much all devices are shrinking exponentially year after year, the SanDisk Extreme hard drive's diminutive size took me off guard. It's basically no fatter than the USB-C cord that connects it, and it's surface area is less than that of a credit card by a fair amount (even with the corner hole allowing you to attach the drive to a carabiner or set of keys if you desire). This very conveniently slips into a pocket, allowing for a level of portability with this amount of space that is uncommon even these days. This portability factor would mean nothing if the drive was fragile, but thankfully, that's of little concern as the drive is shock, water, and dust resistant. Performance is also up to snuff. After using with a number of devices, including a Chromebook and multiple Windows PCs, I can say that this device performs on par with or better than any external drive I've used previously, undoubtedly a result of both the solid state drive and the USB-C connection. The single issue I did have was while trying to connect to my Android phone. The phone recognized that a drive was plugged in, but received the error "This device doesn't support this SanDisk USB drive. Tap to set up in a supported format." I didn't take the time to reformat the drive into a different format, primarily because I don't have much need to use it with my phone. Overall, I'd highly recommend this drive for anyone that needs lots of storage on the go in a reliable and durable package.

    So far I like the device, However I thought the product would be bigger. The rubber backing attracts dust real bad.

    Good read/write speeds but nothing crazy. Would be better to have some kind of status LED showing that it is plugged in and working. Lastly, it should have a little flap/cover for USB port. It’s designed to be portable and mine already is full of dust and general grime from throwing it in my bag.
