Amazing performance. Compact and light with space and oomph. - This SSD is pretty amazing. I had the previous generation 500GB Sandisk version, which is surprisingly twice as big. So this drive is half as small AND twice the capacity HALF the weight. This drive is tiny and light. So what prompted me to write a review is this experience. I have found that when using Android file transfer on my aging MBP 2013 to clear my phone device memory ie. photos and video clips from phone to hard drive this is normally a very slow and tricky process. Only upon introducing an SSD, the aforementioned 500gb drive, did the process become easier to manage and I did not experience the app crashing every other attempt. In fact before my process was to copy the files in batches no bigger than 500mb at a time. You can just imagine how long it will take to copy 55.89 GB at this rate!! It is a real pain. Virtually impossible without an SSD. On to the AMAZING part of my review. Well I have just copied 55.89GB of data from my Android phone TO this SSD drive in ONE drag and drop and taking just 30 to 35 or so minutes to complete. The data rate was phenomenal, the numbers and megabytes were absolutely crazy, running almost akin PER SECOND to the rate at which Jeff Bezos makes £££ on this website. I can only imagine how useful this will be when I start editing 4k video or something that needs this level of performance. I am likely to buy another drive very soon! No regrets for me. Review: Excellent but one flaw. - First the good points. It actually lives up to all that SanDisk claims of it. It is super fast. So far it has been very reliable. It is much smaller than I was expecting, but that is a good thing it isn't a bulky normal-sized SSD, this makes it so very easy to carry with you, It ALMOST fits in my wallet. It is also USB C, rather than the traditional SSD weird USB, making it much more compatible I use it it on my iMac, MacBook, Windows 11 and my Linux server with absolute ease. I love it. HOWEVER: It has one major flaw, it has no activity light, so it is very difficult to tell if you have plugged in properly and, much more importantly, when it has actually been fully ejected. If SanDisk ever does another version of this I hope they include an activity light (and make it small enough to fit in my wallet); then it will be perfect. Despite this, I recommend this SSD ## Features - Get fast solid state performance with 520MB/s read speeds in a portable drive - Back up your content and memories on a storage solution that fits seamlessly into your mobile lifestyle - Take it with you on your adventures—up to two-metre drop protection means this durable drive can take a beating - Secure it to your belt loop or backpack for extra peace of mind thanks to the tough rubber hook - Travel worry-free with a 3-year limited warranty.

If your pc storage drive has a read speed of 250 mb/s then that's the speed the files will transfer even though the USB drive will write faster it can't get the data off of the pc storage drive fast enough. Hope this helps a little bit. **Q: Has the 2TB Pro 1050mb drive password protection?** A: Dear Cath Harrison, My name is Shira from SanDisk Customer Care. I would like to inform you that the drive will have password 3rd party application on it pre-installed. You may contact us via our support email: english_support@sandisk.com and provide us with the date of this post. Best regards, Shira SanDisk Global Customer Care **Q: With apples camera (usb cable) can i use this drive with just a charging cable? as currently have to use a powered usb hub with a drive.** A: The Sandisk Drive draws it's power and communication (Files) through a single USB-C Cable. It depends whether the Apple camera's connection can output enough power to run the Drive. Do you use the Charging cable to transfer Data as well as charge the Camera ? If it's just for charging i'd think it's not going to work. I personally would send an Email to Sandisk & Apple to enquire if it's possible **Q: Will this work for the Dashcam in my Tesla?** A: I use it on a 2016 Mac book pro,,,, it works well, if you back to this ssd through time machine it will auto format the drive to Mac format the first time you use it. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Best SSD ever.

Despite this, I recommend this SSD ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very fast SSD with high capacity and great portability *by C***M on 15 March 2024* I use this SSD with my Xbox One X to store my games. It makes the games stored on it load much faster than those installed on the Xbox's internal hard drive. It also reduces stuttering on some games. It's small and light so you can just stick it in your pocket and carry it around with you. It even has a small loop on the top so that you can attach it things like the a C-Clamp. I would highly recommend this drive both for gaming consoles and for general use PCs. **Note: If you use a drive to store Xbox console games, you cannot use it with a PC until the drive is reformatted, which will delete everything on the drive. This is also the case vice versa. This is just how Xbox consoles work and it is not the fault of SanDisk.** ## Frequently Bought Together - SanDisk 1TB Portable SSD - Up to 520MB/s, USB-C, USB 3.2 Gen 2 - SDSSDE30-1T00-G25 - SanDisk 2TB Extreme Portable SSD - Up to 1050MB/s, USB-C, USB 3.2 Gen 2, IP65 Water and Dust Resistance, Updated Firmware - External Solid State Drive - SDSSDE61-2T00-G25 - Yinke Hard Case for SanDisk Extreme Pro/SanDisk Extreme Portable External SSD 500GB 1TB 2TB, Travel Case Protective Cover Storage Bag --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.ro/products/282894672-portable-ssd-1tb-up-to-520mb-s-read-speed](https://www.desertcart.ro/products/282894672-portable-ssd-1tb-up-to-520mb-s-read-speed) --- *Product available on Desertcart Romania* *Store origin: RO* *Last updated: 2026-04-23*
