    The best USB SSD drive that you can buy! Don't look at anything else!
    In short, I needed an SSD to back up my MacBook Pro. In the past, I used a spinning hard drive for backup using SuperDuper software and the process was painfully slow. Often, for about 500GB of data, the backup and restore took up to an hour.With an internal SSD on my MacBook Pro it made perfect sense that the destination backup should also go on an SSD drive where transfer speeds would significantly increase. One more thing to consider: spinning hards drives have a much higher failure rate than SSD drives. I can't begin to tell you how many spinning backup drives I have purchased in the past that have ultimately failed.SSD is the future and the fact that prices have dramatically decreased on these drives gives no-one an excuse for not buying them.I did a lot of research on various SSD drives before selecting this SanDisk 1TB drive. My first choice was a Samsung in a colorized metal case. The reviews, however, led me to believe that there were some major issues with the Samsung drives as they included embedded software that was difficult to remove. This is not something anyone wants when buying an SSD drive.Reading the reviews on this SanDisk Extreme, it was easy to see that this would fit perfectly for my needs. The reviews across the board were very positive. No embedded software. This particular SSD has been rated as one of the very fastest USB drives available on the market as of this date.Upon arrival, I was astonished at how small this drive actually is. I mean, it's absolutely tiny. You can fit it into your jeans pocket and you would not feel it. We really have come a long way in external SSD drive portability.I am not particularly happy with the covering on this drive. It's a dust magnet. The second I placed it on my table it had already collected airborne dog hair. However, on the plus side, this thing is so rugged that you can drop it from just about any height and it won't break. So, I guess that is more important than anything else.It was nice to see that the drive includes a USB-C cord with USB-A adapter. The cord also securely fits the drive without any wiggle. The only thing negative I have to say about the cord is that it's too short.I am including in my photos the result of a recent backup of my MacBook Pro via SuperDuper software. You can see that about 425GB of data was backed up in 30 minutes time. With a spinning drive, that would have taken 2-3 times longer. This drive is really super fast!This drive does come formatted for Windows. If you buy it for your Mac, you need to go to DISK UTILITY (in your applications folder), select the SanDisk drive, then click on ERASE. You will want to format the drive in OSX Extended Journaled. The format takes seconds to do. You are then ready to transfer data to the drive.By far, this is the best SSD drive I have ever owned. Do not hesitate to consider this above any other.

    SSD is the future and the fact that prices have dramatically decreased on these drives gives no-one an excuse for not buying them.

    I did a lot of research on various SSD drives before selecting this SanDisk 1TB drive. My first choice was a Samsung in a colorized metal case. The reviews, however, led me to believe that there were some major issues with the Samsung drives as they included embedded software that was difficult to remove. This is not something anyone wants when buying an SSD drive.

    Reading the reviews on this SanDisk Extreme, it was easy to see that this would fit perfectly for my needs. The reviews across the board were very positive. No embedded software. This particular SSD has been rated as one of the very fastest USB drives available on the market as of this date.

    Upon arrival, I was astonished at how small this drive actually is. I mean, it's absolutely tiny. You can fit it into your jeans pocket and you would not feel it. We really have come a long way in external SSD drive portability.

    I am not particularly happy with the covering on this drive. It's a dust magnet. The second I placed it on my table it had already collected airborne dog hair. However, on the plus side, this thing is so rugged that you can drop it from just about any height and it won't break. So, I guess that is more important than anything else.

    It was nice to see that the drive includes a USB-C cord with USB-A adapter. The cord also securely fits the drive without any wiggle. The only thing negative I have to say about the cord is that it's too short.

    I am including in my photos the result of a recent backup of my MacBook Pro via SuperDuper software. You can see that about 425GB of data was backed up in 30 minutes time. With a spinning drive, that would have taken 2-3 times longer. This drive is really super fast!

    This drive does come formatted for Windows. If you buy it for your Mac, you need to go to DISK UTILITY (in your applications folder), select the SanDisk drive, then click on ERASE. You will want to format the drive in OSX Extended Journaled. The format takes seconds to do. You are then ready to transfer data to the drive.

    By far, this is the best SSD drive I have ever owned. Do not hesitate to consider this above any other.

    5.0 out of 5 stars The best USB SSD drive that you can buy! Don't look at anything else!

    In short, I needed an SSD to back up my MacBook Pro. In the past, I used a spinning hard drive for backup using SuperDuper software and the process was painfully slow. Often, for about 500GB of data, the backup and restore took up to an hour.

    With an internal SSD on my MacBook Pro it made perfect sense that the destination backup should also go on an SSD drive where transfer speeds would significantly increase. One more thing to consider: spinning hards drives have a much higher failure rate than SSD drives. I can't begin to tell you how many spinning backup drives I have purchased in the past that have ultimately failed.

    Es una excelente inversión para trabajo pesado de edición de video en 4K. Lo único es que con el tiempo (bastante) el cable deja de calzar completamente y si se mueve es posible que se desconecte de la computadora.

    I've been using this for about 4-5 years (?) for photography and document storage with zero issues. Always mounts in OSX, never lost any data, no complaints at all. Only wish they were cheaper so I could get more of them!

    5.0 out of 5 stars Rapido e prático
    Reviewed in Brazil on April 25, 2024
    Chegou rápido, porém como o produto é chines, veio com o manual toda em mandarim. Ai complica.

    Mas por ser um ssd externo, não tem mistério né, só conectar no pc.

    Funcionando tudo direitinho, sem problemas algum até agora. Já foram umas 3 semanas.

    Me suit presque partout depuis environ 4 ans, léger, petit mais très efficace, rapide aussi bien en lecture qu'en écriture, compatible PC, MAC, iPad Pro (formaté en ExFat).
    A même été utilisé comme disque de démarrage pour MAC (j'avais 5 partitions avec 5 versions différentes de MacOS) et aucun ralentissements ou bugs.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Una memoria rápida y compacta.
    Reviewed in Mexico on December 31, 2019
    Esta es la primera memoria SSD que he comprado, antes únicamente había lidiado con HardDrives. Es INCREIBLE la diferencia de velocidad a la que se pueden enviar los archivos, tengo entendido que lo importante es tener un puerto Thunderbolt para poder tener las velocidades referidas, pero por lo que he logrado, puedo transferir archivos de mas de 1gb en menos de 10 segundos.
    Mas que nada uso esta memoria como base de datos para mi trabajo, asi que me sirve de maravilla, es compacta, asi que no quita mucho espacio en mi maletin.
    Sigue siendo un precio alto, sin embargo, la calidad me parece bastante buena, si tu objetivo es tener una memoria que te permita visualizar rapido tus archivos, y a la vez estos son bastante pesados, esta es la memoria para ti. Si solo lo quieres para guardar fotos o archivos que rara vez buscaras tener a la mano, usa HardDrive.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Small Tough TB Drive
    Reviewed in Canada on November 6, 2019
    I use this drive as a safe and compact backup to all my movies, music and photos. I have 2 other drives storing my precious files but this one is for travel and goes with me everywhere. It is smaller than it looks in the picture and for that I am pleased. It works well and copies at high speeds, my Mac Air recognized it as soon as it was plugged in and I am impressed with the performance and quality. It is built tough and is solid state so will last and last. I may buy only SSD from now on. My data is safe and this small external hard drive is very reliable and I recommend it. I liked it so much, I bought another for a gift.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Außen klein, innen oho!
    Reviewed in Germany on July 4, 2020
    Als die SanDisc Estreme Portable1TB gestern bei mir ankam und ich sie auspackte, war ich sehr überrascht! Ich wusste von Videos und Web-Bildern, dass sie recht klein sein soll, aber dass sie SO niedlich ist, hätte ich nicht gedacht! Da macht sie ihrem Namen alle Ehre!
    Und das ist ein großer Pluspunkt! Sie passt fast überall rein und ist dadurch auch super für Unterwegs.
    Ich habe sie direkt in meine Domiso iPad Tasche in das kleine Fach aussen gesteckt und war überrascht, dass die SanDisc dort hinein passte.
    Und es war sogar noch Platz für das der Festplatte beiliegende USB-C auf USB-C Kabel, sowie auch für den ebenfalls beiliegenden Adapter von USB-C auf USB-A. Perfekt!
    Natürlich wurde sie auch direkt getestet. Ist jja schön, wenn sie gut aussieht und handlich ist, aber funktioniert sie auch am IPad Pro 12,9“, für das ich die SanDisc ja gekauft hatte?
    Ich muss sagen: JA! Und das noch so einfach, schnell und leise, dass ich erst nicht bemerkt hatte und schon dachte, ich müsste noch etwas formatieren oder sonst etwas einrichten, einschalten oder ähnliches.
    Die Festplatte an den USB-C Port angeschlossen, in die Files App gegangen, geguckt und... schwupps! Da stand sie sofort in der Anzeige bei den anderen Ordnern!
    Ich hatte zum Testen ein paar Bilder darauf gezogen, was umgehend, schnell und leise vonstatten ging.
    FAZIT:
    Eine super kleine, leichte und robuste Festplatte zum Mitnehmen oder auch zuhause oder im Büro.
    Sie kommt mit dem passenden Kabel, was allerdings etwas kurz ist. Für manche vielleicht ein kleines Problem, ich aber mag es so lieber. Wen es stört, der kann ja getrost ein längeres Kabel kaufen, wovon es eine große Auswahl gibt.
    Die Öse mit der Orangen Umrandung brauche ich zwar (noch) nicht, aber wer weiß wofür sie mal gut sein könnte. Auf jeden Fall stört sie nicht.
    Dadurch, dass die Festplatte ohne Mühe und Aufwand sofort erkennt wurde (zumindest bei meinem iPad Pro 2020), ist sie einfach zu benutuen und handhaben.
    Das Einzige, was ich mir noch wünschen würde ist, dass sie doch irgendwo ein kleines LED Licht hätte, wo man auch erkennen kann, dass die Festplatte erkannt wurde, bzw. dass sie auch arbeitet.
    Ansonsten kann ich die SanDissc jedem weiterempfehlen!
