    This is a solid SSD! I use it with my DAW when referencing to the orchestral sound libraries I have stored on it! The connection is fast and reliable- I truly have nothing negative to say about it. Thank you San Disk and Best Buy! -Benjamin

    This storage device is great. It is small in size and durable. The transfer time is quick. Good for transferring large files and videos

    Great little drive. Beware Best Buy Certificates.

    So far this has been a great little Drive. My old backup drive was getting very slow. This backs up in about 30 seconds as compared to the 30 minutes on the old drive. Using USB-C. The only complaint we had has nothing to do with the drive but with Best Buy Rewards Certificates. Tried to use expiring "certificates" on our purchase. This drive was $199.99 and the Mouse we got was $99.99. Unfortunately we did not realize that they don't apply those points to the most costly items. Be sure to have them ring up the item you want the certificate to go against as a separate purchase. We had to return two cords we did not need and are now left with a $40 certificate that we won't be able to use. We tried to use 270 certificate points on those 2 items totaling $299.98, but because of the way they applied the points to the cords first and not on the high ticket item we lost $40. No way to get satisfaction. Best Buy employees very nice but case of "Too bad, So sad!!". I will never again be hooked into doing something for their rewards or certificates. Just not worth the hassle of trying to figure out how to use them. They issue them to make you spend more money. Couldn't use the $100 certificate for the new mouse because it was only $99.99. Because of the $.01 you are out of luck!! With the two items we should have been okay, but they applied the points to the small stuff first, so if anything is returned you have a costly problem.

    I have two of these with this one being the 2nd. I bought this having no issues with the first so figured I'd buy again. After having this unit for about a month or so my data got wiped. Customer service was great and helped recover some of my files - but they didn't give me the whole story. Apparently there is some sort of glitch in the firmware and they knew/know about the issue. I found out by searching the web and was able to piece together what happened after I lost data for a 2nd time. Thankfully, I got someone in support to help identify my unit, upload new firmware and has been working fine since. Please be aware the number on the hard drive case is very hard to see. There is a site to run the number to see if your unit is affected. Initially my unit was reported as not affected but thankfully support performed the update anyway and fixed the issue - been fine since. Though no one wants to deal with unexpected or expected data loss I still recommend this drive, the speed and style. Just do your homework up front and if your data is super important you should have multiple back ups anyway.

    This SanDisk is exactly what I was looking for to replace my old external disk that had platters that were destroyed when it fell on the floor and I lost all my files for good. Now I don't have to worry as much if this SanDisk hits the floor. This SanDisk is just like having additional internal disk space, very fast and lots of disk space.

    Love this SSD for it's amazing speed in a small, high quality package. I've run various Linux installs on this and they all run flawlessly. I'd recommend grabbing any number of these as you can't go wrong having one or even a few laying around.
