This thing is extremely fast (which can’t be said of my WiFi connection. It does get pretty warm after a while, but that appears to be the norm in this and other similar drives and review of others who have had it for a while are reassuring as far as longevity. It made its connection quickly on my MacBook Pro with M1. It’s pretty compact, but can’t help but wish for even smaller in the future. While I’m wishing: Just as fast, but wireless, would be nice, too. Anyway, expensive but worth it if your situation demands extra high speeds!

Well made and works as advertised. I own other Sandisk drives, and they seem to last. I hope this one holds up.

Solved my problems with latency issues when loading sound libraries. Doing music composition need instruments to load fast. This did the trick. Easy install and works great with Apple.

This is the fastest non-DIY external SSD I’ve ever used. When connected via Thunderbolt 3 or 4 ports (and cables), I’m pretty much getting the read/write speeds claimed by SanDisk/Western Digital. Am using this as additional storage for file portability between my 2019 MacBook Pro 16 and my 2020 M1 Mac Mini.

I use this as storage for my mini Mac 2 and iPad Pro. I do videos and cAn transfer files from one device to another to work on them. Love the portability and light weight. It is perfect for my needs. I would definitely recommend it.

Would have worked but had an outdated device that didn't allow me to properly use or use it is all on my computer. Requires a certain usb or thunderbolt port to even work. Make sure you know the requirements before making your purchase.

This is my second one, for my second laptop. They work as advertised on Apple MacBooks. I use them to store my photo library with full resolution versions synced to iCloud. This leaves plenty of room on my 1 TB internal SSDs for the rest, and room to operate at peak efficiency. That is, no penalty for lack of space.

Top Performer. Runs Hot. Not for iPhone 15 Pro.

A top-end SSD solution. It wasn't the manufacturer's fault that the iPhone 15 Pro Max rejected it as incompatible, but that was a disappointment. Although I had purchased it for that, re-purposing it as the external drive of my MacBook Pro to receive iPhone video was still a win.
The real reason for four stars instead of five was that it gets quite hot even when sitting there quiescent doing nothing.
