Nice Product, easy to use, but default format isn't reasonable in some cases

This is a nice product. Only complaint is that the cluster size is so large on the default formatting of it that if you put a lot of small files on it, it won't hold near as much as it could/should. Reformatting to NTFS (or other compatible format) with a smaller cluster size (allocation unit size with Windows Format) takes care of the problem (and it still works well). Example: I moved a Train Simulator that had a lot of add-ons (with small files) and it took well over 700GB (but on my hard drive it was just over 200GB) ... literally tripled the space used on the SSD drive vs space used on the hard drive ... after moving everything back to the hard drive, reformatting the SSD with the smallest cluster size available and moving it all back to the SSD drive again, it was back down to the hard drive equivalent in space used. If you store a bunch of large videos on the SSD drive, the default format will likely be fine. Otherwise, you might consider reformatting before using.Read full review...

Fast storage and retrieval, plus SanDisk quality.

Wonderful drive. I bought it to replace a spinning platter drive containing my many photos. Access by Lightroom and Photoshop was slow with the old drive. The SSD is much faster! Also, I got the traditional SanDisk quality I've enjoyed for years.Read full review...

Excellent External SSD

Got this to go with my MacBook. Very fast, lightweight and massive amounts of storage. Small size makes it easy to carry along with me.

Quality for the right price.

I am very confident that my valuable files will be stored safely with Sandisk's SSD Extreme drives. They've come a long way in the last few years and I believe they are now emphasizing quality as their most important selling point.Read full review...

The right size and a good performer.

Convenient size and package. I found it fast on a USB 3.0 connection. I am using it for static backup on a Linux system, so cannot evaluate for Windows or Mac environments. The cables packed with the device are very short, which in my usage is a non-issue, others may wish for a longer cable.Read full review...

Works well

The vault aspect of the device made me a little nervous after I read that a problem with the application left a user with no access to the files. I followed the advice of another user and re-formatted to make it more compatible with no restriction on access. I don't intend to carry it around with me, so the vault was not a great advantage. It transfers at terrific speeds in general, so it serves my purposes exactly as I need.Read full review...
