SanDisk 1TB Extreme PRO Portable External SSD - Up to 1050MB/s - USB-C, USB 3.1 - SDSSDE80-1T00-A25

I didnt look at the dimension specs when I ordered it, so I was surprised that it was SO much smaller than previous SSDs that Ive had. It works great though!

Liked it

First such SSD was faulty on arrival but not greatly so, was much faultier the next day.

I bought this as an external SSD to my Xbox. I’m generally pleased with the storage size and form factor. But it doesn’t always play nicely with the Xbox and has to be unplugged and plugged back in for the Xbox to recognize any of the games that are stored on it. I wish it served this purpose a little more seamlessly.

Mainly going to be used for backups.

I think the headline pretty much sums it up.

Tiniest external HDD I had!

So I got this could be about a year ago or so to replace my then Time Capsule which was being used for backup but then began giving trouble backing up getting stuck in the process. I went with this because I know SanDisk to be a good brand and of course cant beat SSD drive-wise.

this is my second sandisk SSD. I was already quite happy with my Extreme SSD 500Gb from 2018, but needed larger capacity and faster speeds. I read the reviews and was tempted for a while with the samsung T7. However, I heard about throttling issues there, and decided to go for the Extreme Pro. my 700Gb backup was so quick I had to run it a second time and check files to see it for myself. The device is larger than the Extreme, a bit thicker, but still very pocketable and feels higher end and solid. The speed was simply amazing. Such a increase in productivity. Note that I have re-formatted on NTFS and installed the latest version of bitlocker for Windows 10 for security. I use auto-unlock. Thank you Sandisk!

I usually use this on my Tesla to save sentry recordings, but every now and then I will use it to save video files of soccer games I record. Pretty easy to connect to and USB c is fast. Dont really have any compliant.
