Fast, Reliable, and Secure. Perfect for Video Workflows
By Cinema Legion on Reviewed in the United States on June 23, 2025
This SSD has been a great addition to my professional video setup. The speed is exactly what I need, especially when working with high-bitrate footage. With transfer rates up to 1050MB/s, I can move entire projects in minutes. For anyone doing serious video or photo work, this drive gets the job done. One standout feature is the built-in Disk Lock and Unlock function, which adds a layer of security to your files. It remembers trusted devices, so you do not need to enter your code every time. Just a heads up—if you enter the wrong code a few times, it will wipe the drive, so make sure you do not forget your password. That feature is powerful, but you need to use it carefully. Build quality is solid, and the drive is light enough to carry around without worry. The only minor drawback is that the included USB-C cable is short. Depending on your setup, the drive might dangle a bit, but it is light enough that it has not caused any issues for me. Pros: - Super fast transfer speeds - 2TB of space for large project files - Built-in data protection with lock feature - Recognizes trusted devices - Rugged and lightweight design Cons: - USB-C cable is short If you are working with large files or need reliable short-term storage for active projects, this is a great option. I use it daily in my video workflow and would absolutely recommend it to any content creator or editor.

Didn't work properly with my Mac Studio
By B. J. Carlton on Reviewed in the United States on June 29, 2025
I bought the drive to archive a bunch of photos I had previously archived on HDDs. I wanted the speed and reliability boost. I reformatted the drive in my Mac, and then started copying files from my HDD to the new SSD. I encountered a problem where the SSD would spontaneously demount. I would get two error messages: one scolding me for unplugging the drive without ejecting it first, and the other telling me that file <file name> couldn't be copied because the name was too long, or it contained improper characters, neither of which was true. I determined that the files would copy just fine to iCloud. I thought maybe I could then copy the files from iCloud to the SSD, but no luck. I then tried copying the files to a smaller-capacity SSD I had around (different brand), and they worked just fine. I then tried copying them from the other SSD to the SanDisk, and the same crash occurred. I have tried different ports on the Mac, to no avail. When I connect my HDD and the SanDisk SSD to my laptop, the copying works. So the problem seems to be some sort of incompatibility between my Mac Studio and the SanDisk SSD. I am returning the SanDisk SSDs and buying a different brand. I'm wishing for better luck this time after spending several days wrestling with this problem. I'm giving the device a three-star rating on the assumption that it will probably work fine in other situations.
