    After using smaller Extreme portable SSDs as MacBook Time Machine drives (one at home, and one in the office, hanging off a USB-C port on my Thunderbolt dock) for some time, I upgraded to a larger MacBook and needed more space. I looked at a larger Extreme briefly, but decided to go for the Pro instead to get the 2 GB/second speed and wow, was it ever worth it. Backing up and restoring large files are now lightning-quick. I get full speed when I connect it directly to the USB-C port on my MacBook. My dock will only do 1 GB/sec, but because it's in the background, for convenience, it works out rather well. I can always move the drive back to a direct connect port to get full speed again. The bottom line is this: I trust SanDisk to do solid-state storage. I've had problems with every other big brand. SanDisk has never let me down.

    Fast and so small! Honestly i want to commend the person who helped me find it though. He was fast, his computer work was great and it was a very easy transaction.

    The SanDisk Extreme Portable 4TB External USB-C NVMe SSD is an awesome. Good price, good product, well packaged. I already had 4TB external drives from Best Buy. This is the third one.

    Excellent external drive! The 4TB drive is large enough to back up all my data and it is much faster than the mechanical hard drive I had been using.

    I got these to go with my playstation 5, as well as my xbox series x and these things fit in half of the palm of my hand and are as thin as a kitkat! Yet sure as can be they hold 4tb! Man how technology sure has advanced! Lol

    Very fast ssd and it’s very portable fits in your pocket. Make sure you have a usb-c plug on your PC to take advantage of the faster speeds usb 3.0 is not as fast as usb-c.

    Fast and simple, perfectly designed, it is even so nice just to hold it in you hands. I use it for streaming videos, no difference with real live TV. Keep in mind its 4 Gb capacity.

    This hard drive is very useful. I bought it for use in an Apple computer. Its speed is very fast, which is beyond my expectation. If its price is better, I will consider buying another one. However, it also has a disadvantage, that is, it does not provide you with a box to protect it, which makes you have to buy a box separately for it.

    I’ve been using this Samsung 4 TB SSD as a backup drive and to transfer large files, and have been very impressed with its speed and small, durable form factor. There are certainly less expensive alternatives; however, I bought it for around $300 which still feels expensive, but I have been very happy with this purchase so far.

    This works as well as the other SanDisk that I own. The only problem or issue that I have is that the disk gets extremely warm or hot if a lot of data is being transferred.
