    Very frustrating. When attempting to download files it worked for a while then all the data disappeared and it told me I had to format the drive. I followed the link but it did not work. Speaking with the company was very frustrating. No real explanation. I own three of these drives and have never had this problem

    Very disappointed in this product, i expected a better performance compared to my last product and it was the exact opposite. The performance was noticeably less than an inferior prodcuct.

    Worst SSD I’ve had. Check out other online reviews to confirm. The 4T has issues. I do run a 2T that has been great. I can also say Best Buy was great and let me exchange it for a Crucial SSD.

    This external solid state drive is working well. I’ve had no problems with it. I use it to do full image backups of my Windows 10 pc. I also use it on my iPad to backup photos, videos, and other files. Seems to be very fast. Copies 145 gigabytes in a matter of minutes. It gets warm, so I aim a very small usb fan at it. Don’t know if it is necessary but better to be safe than sorry.

    SanDisk 4TB SSD

    SanDisk 4 TeraByte (TB) solid state drive (SSD) is my desktop computer back-up drive. It is very fast. The drive is thin and light som that I have it velcro attached to the rear of the computer stand and the short USB-C cord plugged into the rear of the computer. No straggly wires and very neat. Highly recommend SanDisk 4TB SSD!

    Fast and reliable. I own three now and use them for backups and one as an external hard drive. I even have one for backups on my Linux PC. I don't have a negative thing to say about them. Very fast!

    Fast drive

    This solid-state drive is very fast, much faster than a mechanical SATA striped RAID. I use these for video editing, one for the video files and a second one for the cache files. Each are connected via high-speed USB-C cables.
