Great review!!! How do I know if I buy the new one or the old one? I had a sandisk and it didn’t work with the iphone only with a external powered hub and the powered lightning usb adapter.

I’d love some feedback, Thanks!

Speed and reliability is extremely important because we just had a newborn and don't want to lose precious data. I also don't want the SSD to get too hot as I will editing videos straight off the drive. I am hoping to buy 2 TB version, price is not going to be main factor because I always hear scary stories about people losing data. What do you think I should do? I promise I won't bug you after this haha thank you!

Hello, I am from Chile, I want to buy the sandisk extreme portable v2, it is supposed to have the same transfer speed as the sandisk extreme pro v1, and it costs me cheaper than the latter. Should I really compare it? Or should I buy the sandisk extreme portable v1 550mb / s? I only have port 3.0 and not 3.1 and much less 3.2, if I only have 3.0, how much will the transfer speed be? Excuse so many questions, I await your answer and thank you.

@theop1875 2 года назад

Hey Lon! I have a question.. I'd like to know why after having installed a USB 3.2 Gen 2X2 Expansion Card onto my Desktop PC, the Sandisk Extreme PRO Portable SSD V2 is hitting speeds of 2000 MB/s on the CrystalDiskMark speed test, as it should, yet a real world test where I drop a large file into the SSD only peaks at 1000 MB/s? This is very odd. I hope you can help!

@chunkylover5367 2 года назад

You answered the question yourself: real world test. Try a bunch of small files and 1 big file to compare the difference.

@arnoldsnodgrass2953 3 года назад

Lon, forgive me being a bit thick here but on the Crystal DiskMark test at 8:20 why are the figures in red lower on the top line (the faster USB connection) than the bottom line, where all the others show the top line being more MB/s?

@LonSeidman 3 года назад

Nothing on the Heat of the Drives during extended use? I have 2 of these drives, and they get close to hot when I transfer stuff to them or from them. I have had them for about 2 years now not sure if this is a common thing with these drives or all drives. I use one pretty much like a main hard drive, I leave connected throughout the day.

@dbtech4562 Год назад

I have the Extreme Pro and on my iMac M1, only getting about 800 and on my iMac i7 getting over 900. I used the Thunderbolt port and tested with BlackMagic. Next time I'll get the slower but higher capacity version.

@DonnieGQX 3 года назад

Thanks, was deciding what to get for my M1 Mac Mini. I was about to get the pro until I saw this. Still don't know what to get but i know I won't get the full performance out of the TB3 port.

@im_an_alvani 3 года назад

Same predicament here. Only thing that would be comparible to the internal storage would be either the Samsung X5 or the LaCie Rugged SSD Pro, both of which cost about the same as just buying the Mac Mini with the same amount of storage. I'm leaning towards the Sandisk Extreme Pro, as I don't need all the speed and it's nice to still be able to use the Thunderbolt power and not require any power brick.

Hello, I'm an iMac Os user running Big Sur version 11.3. I used Blackmagicdesign's Disk Speed Test application for the Sandisk Extreme Pro 1T format to APFS, Partition Table GUID and I got a result of 33.4 MB / s Write and 36.4 MB / s Read. I don't understand why it's so low. The hard drive is brand new and has never been used. Anyone have a solution to my problem ??

The speed is written on the box. If it is the V1 Extreme, they only say up to 500mbps, while on the V2 Extreme says up to 1000mbps. Same happened to the Extreme Pro, V1: 1000mbps, V2: 2000mbps.

Just picked up a new IPad M1, thunderbolt 3, latest implementation, so I’m going with the faster 2x2 drive. Apple wanted an additional $200 to up the (soldered job) RAM to get an additional 256 MB. I’ll gladly pay $330 today to have a crazy fast SSD with crazy storage in a high quality, portable and external case. It just shows from the time this video was published how specs vs. price vs. available Apple hardware changes.

Wish there was a wireless version *with that carabiner clip hole.* Obviously it would be bulkier, I get that, a battery and router require room, but I think keeping a similar but thicker formfactor would be tottaly doable. I'd pay a premium for the wireless feature on one of these. (I know there are other portable wireless SSDs including ones by SanDisk... that's not what I'm wishing for.
