SanDisk Extreme 500GB Portable NVMe SSD, USB-C, up to 1050MB/s Read & 1000MB/s Write Speed, Water & dust-Resistant. Works with PC, PS4, and Xbox X SDSSDE61-500G-G25

The SanDisk Extreme PRO Portable SSD 2TB is an excellent external drive for fast file transfers and reliable storage. The NVMe technology delivers very impressive speeds, and I was able to move large files and videos quickly without noticeable delays. The drive feels compact and well built, making it easy to carry in a bag or pocket. It’s especially useful for backing up large files or working with media projects where speed matters. The only downside is the price, which is higher than standard external drives. However, considering the performance and build quality, it feels worth it if you need fast portable storage. Overall, a powerful and dependable portable SSD for anyone needing quick data transfer and extra storage.

This SanDisk portable SSD is compact, lightweight, and feels really solid. The short cable is a nice touch, keeping things tidy and easy to position on a desk. I use it as a working drive for editing, and it’s fast enough to feel just like working from my laptop’s internal storage, without filling it up or slowing things down. The 1TB size also makes it easier to stay organised by separating work into different projects. The built-in loop is useful for attaching to a bag when travelling, making it a great option for working on the go. Overall, a fast, portable, and reliable drive that’s ideal for everyday use.

Been using this for a bit now and it’s been great. Really fast when moving big files and doesn’t lag at all. Small, lightweight and easy to carry around. Does exactly what I need it to do, no issues so far, very good for content creation that need more and more space.

Good drive overall, but not without a few frustrations. Performance is solid and it handles large files well, which is why I use it as my main drive for projects. Build quality also feels strong and durable, so it holds up well for regular use. The main issue I have had is occasional dropouts. It does not happen constantly, but when it does it can be frustrating, especially if you are actively working on projects. I have seen suggestions online about updating the firmware to fix this, but that process wipes the drive. If you are already using most of the storage, that is not a realistic option without having another drive to move everything onto first. Another thing to consider is the price. It is very expensive, especially for higher capacities like 4TB, so it is definitely an investment. Despite that, it still works well overall and I continue to use it as my main drive. It is just something to be aware of depending on your workflow. Overall, a fast and well built SSD, but with a few reliability quirks and a high price point to consider.

The first one I got arrived looking fine, but after writing to it for a little bit of time the front popped off around the bottom of the casing between the front pannel and the rubber bumper. (See picture). You could see the inside of it quite clearly if you didn't press it back into place, but it'd pop again after a few minutes, slowly opening up again. After describing this fault to Amazon, they issued a replacement and I sent this one back - after wiping it completely. I put it down to being a defective unit. Does happen sometimes, nothing is perfect. The replacement arrived and I started playing around with it. It came formatted with ExFAT, as well, so be aware, if your device doesn't support ExFAT, you just need to format it to something that can read it. I got speeds faster than advertised, 1086MBps read (vs 1050MBps advertised) and 1038MBps write (vs 1000MBps advertised). There was 1.81TiB of usable space on the 2TB version I purchased, which is absolutely expected and not false advertising as some of the comments suggest. (A quick note to those people, a TB is not the same as a TiB. The 2TB version is 2TB, which is ~1.81TiB, what it shows in the OS, albeit falsely labeled in Windows). The leaflet suggests I can update the firmware on it, and should do that when I get it, however I am unable to find anything on the website about this and I assume it should be fine. It says it has hardware encryption capabilities, which uses the software provided but I never trust that stuff. I just formatted it to EXT4 in Linux (My OS of choice) and used Veracrypt, which you can use in Windows (and MacOS, I think), to encrypt my drive with FDE (Full Disk Encryption). The drive is extremely responsive and I was able to fill it up with my files, and was able to read them all afterwards. It should be noted that whilst the first one got hot during operations, the second one seemed to run quite cool. I'm not sure why this is and I'm not going to complain either. It seems to be quite solidly built and I do recommend it if you want to store lots of things, but it may be more expensive than a hard drive or the equivalent in M.2/NVMe. I got mine during Prime Day so it was quite cheap. All in all I highly recommend it. It's a solid drive and time will tell if it's reliable. I will update this after a year or so. Edit: Nearly two years later and it's still going strong. Massive thumbs up for that. Upgrading to 5/5.

Przetestowana prędkość to 1012 MB/s odczyt, 1019 MB/s zapis, a więc prawie 2 razy mniej niż w specyfikacji. Sprawdzone na oryginalnym kablu i innym 40GB/s. Wersje Extreme, sporo tańsza, ma niewiele mniejszą prędkość (777 i 958), bliższą podawanej w opisie.

軽量で保存容量が大きため重宝しています。 iPadと接続して使用していますが、反応も早いためお気に入りです。

Heel goed

Rapide, solide, efficace, voilà plus de deux ou trois années que j'en ai un et j'en ai rien à dire. Je l'ai certes payé cher au départ. Mais à l'arrivée il est mon meilleur compagnon pour mes vidéos et autres. Je conseille les yeux fermés. Seul, petit bémol le cordon USB qui est vraiment trop petit.

Va che è una scheggia questo SSD portatile 8 tera
