    • Great little portable hard drive to throw in my bag.
Color: Black Capacity: 2TB
I picked up the SanDisk 2TB Extreme Portable SSD, and I’m really happy with it. This SSD is super compact, which is perfect for me since I’m always on the go. It fits easily in my bag, and I barely even notice it’s there. I’ve been using it with my MacBook, and it works like a charm. There are no issues with compatibility at all—just plug it in, and it’s good to go. The speed is impressive too. Transferring files is quick, whether I’m backing up large projects or just moving files around. There’s no waiting around, which I really appreciate. Being an SSD, it’s pretty durable. I’ve dropped it once or twice, and it’s held up great. I also love the fact that it’s water and dust-resistant. It’s nice to know I don’t have to baby it. SanDisk is a brand I trust. I’ve used their products for years, and they’ve never let me down. This SSD feels just as solid and reliable as their other products. If you need a fast, portable, and durable SSD for your MacBook, this is a great option. It’s the perfect size, works seamlessly with my Mac, and the performance is exactly what I was looking for. ... show more

    • Excellent Performance
Color: Black Capacity: 1TB
I recently purchased the SanDisk 1TB Extreme Portable SSD, and it has completely blown me away. The performance is top-notch! With read speeds up to 1050MB/s and write speeds of 1000MB/s, transferring large files, videos, and games has never been quicker or easier. It’s perfect for backing up photos or moving huge files without the usual wait time. The design is incredibly durable – it's lightweight, compact, and features an IP55 rating for water and dust resistance. I’ve dropped it a few times (accidentally, of course), and it still works flawlessly. The rugged exterior gives me peace of mind knowing my data is safe even in less-than-ideal conditions. Another bonus is the USB-C connectivity, which is compatible with both my laptop and gaming console, making it incredibly versatile. The 1TB storage capacity is perfect for all my needs, offering ample space while still being portable enough to carry around in my bag. If you're looking for a reliable, fast, and durable external drive, the SanDisk 1TB Extreme Portable SSD is a great choice. I highly recommend it! ... show more

    • small, quick(ish), good price.
Color: Black Capacity: 2TB
works great, is pretty fast. I love it's small size, easy to transport. Only thing I didn't like is that the included USB cable is so short, it's really annoying I can let the HD sit on the keyboard or on the laptop as I'm backing it up. other than the fact that the HD doesn't come with a hard case I don't have more complaints. I got it for 147 and it's going for cheaper now. I recommend buying 2 so you have more than just 1 backup. You never these days. ... show more

This lil hard drive is AMAZING. Straight out the box it’s ready to use. It’s Formatted in ExFAT format. I plugged it into my MacBook Pro M2 laptop 💻 & it picked up immediately. Transfer speed: It took about 2hrs 37mins to transfer over approx 40,000+ songs. I started at 10:10a & finished 12:47pm. That’s a lot of songs iykyk. It copied aprox 379.16 gb that quickly. My 1TB thumb drive took over 4 hrs for the same transfer. While plugged into the computer I didn’t hear any noise. It’s very quiet. It comes with the tiny drive a USB-C to USB-C plug & a USB-C to USB-A adapter for older computers or ones with no USB-C ports. For those saying it’s not truly 2TB, straight out the Box it had 80.7mb used. I’m guessing that’s the security software for Mac & Windows computer. As you can see in the pic I still had 2TB BEFORE copying 40,0000+ songs STILL left me with about 1.62 TB available. During the 2 hour transfer it was warm. Definitely not hot, but warm as expected. This is a great value for the price because I saw another retailer sell the 1TB for around this same price. This drive can definitely store 2TB! (See pics) Oh & I plugged it into my iPhone 16 Pro Max & it picked up immediately. You have to make sure you hear/feel that “click” when you plug it in. My husband has an Android phone Galaxy S25 & it picked up immediately on his phone also. Def a WIN! I haven’t plugged it into my iPad Pro 12.9” yet but if it works on my phone & my Mac I’m sure I’ll have no problems. I plan to carry this with me at ALL times since it can hold so much music. The only thing is I wish it would have come with is a carabiner clip. I got one & hooked it to it. ... show more
