These SSD cards are unmatched for large file transfers. I have observed write rates of 400 MB/sec or more, and read rates close to 500 MB/sec. They make outstanding external "hard drives" from which to run alternative operating systems. They are noticeably faster than any of the flash drives I have.
Their unique shape, with the large lanyard loop that can accommodate a carabiner or even larger holder, makes them very transportable.
The short and sturdy USB-C cables are stiff, but otherwise perfect, and the included USB-C to USB-A adaptor provides universal connection to any USB port, which is perfect for my equipment. Just make sure that the arrows on the USB-C plugs and on the USB C-to-A adaptor line up, or there will be no connection, because the devices are "keyed" to ensure proper alignment.
Any USB port that is rated USB 3.0 or higher provides the highest transfer rates currently available. The A, B, and C designations merely identify the physical form of the connection. Type C is no faster or better than A and B, but it is a "universal" port, in addition to being a USB port.
Barring hardware difficulties or failures, you should find this drive a perfect choice for most of your large-file transfer and storage requirements.
Unfortunately I cannot harness the full speed of this drive because I'm using a 2014 MacBook Pro which only has USB-3, which is about half the speed of USB-C, furthermore I have this plugged into a powered USB hub. That being said, to my surprise I'm actually getting around 405 MB/s writes and 425 MB/s reads, which is significantly better than I thought I would get, this is a little over 4X faster than real world performance of a standard non-SSD external drive, so it's still plenty zippy for my needs!
To test a sustained load I moved over my existing Kontakt library (music production plugins and such). A 160GB transfer took me 8 minutes and 23 seconds, which is perfectly fine, when moving using a standard non-SSD external it takes almost 35 minutes! A more reasonable 3GB transfer takes around 7-8 seconds, doing the same file transfer over to my WD EasyStore (standard HDD) takes about 38 seconds. For fun I tested transferring 3GB to my NAS and it took 1 minute 36 seconds. I expected it to be slow because I don't have the best internal network plus I'm using slow (but reliable) drives and it has to write the data multiple times. The NAS is just for bulk storage.
The icing on top is the added durability. This is IP55 rated which means it can withstand dust and splashing, which means it's great for outdoor use for storing photos and such. Furthermore, it's rated to withstand a 2 meter (roughly 6.5 foot) drop.
This is a great little drive! My MBP only has a 500GB drive and all of my plugins and samples were eating up hundreds of gigs and I was becoming really tired of constantly having to go through everything and try to maintain space. I wasn't even able to download all of my Kontakt content locally because I simply didn't have enough room, so I had to pick and choose what plugins I wanted to have locally, trying to store everything on the NAS was error-prone because Kontakt didn't like it for some reason but it was also way too slow. This drive is fast enough to where I can work on Logic Pro X projects directly on it without having to create scratch space locally, something I couldn't do with a normal non-SSD external (way too cumbersome). Now instead of having only 10-20GB local storage I’m back up to around 320GB - much better! I can breathe!
Just remember - don't rely on any external as your only backup! Try to back up your most important data in three locations, one being a remote location, if possible.
CONS: Plastic casing makes you wonder how durable it is, not that I'll be testing any of that. Initially fast transfer speed but slows down to a crawl when transferring large numbers of files all at the same time. Because of its small size it is easy to misplace and not find when you want it, and that is the reason for my title to this review "Keep in Box Easily Misplaced"
Yes I'd buy this again. It is a great price. I've never actually seen a portable drive that will do what I've wanted this one to do. Even internal drives get laggy when I transfer several hundred files at once. So Yes I'd buy again. Yes I'd recommend to a friend.

Come è fatto:
Mi hanno sorpreso le dimensioni, è piccolo e leggero. Questo rende il Sandsik facilmente trasportabile anche in tasca.
I materiali li ho trovati ottimi, è compatto e solido. Rivestito in plastica e gomma piacevole al tatto.
Mi ha colpito il design, rifinito in ogni dettaglio anche se minimale.
Non mi è piaciuto il cavo usb-c/usb-c, ho trovato troppo corto e poco curato. Misura circa 15 cm e questo mi crea difficolta nel posizionamento sulla scrivania, dovendolo usare per forza affianco al Pc.
Uso quotidiano:
Nell’uso di tutti i giorni mi sono trovato benissimo, è scattante e veloce (anche se è stato superato da ssd più moderni).
Ho usato quasi quotidianamente questo hard-disk per un anno e non mi ha mai dato problemi, risultando molto affidabile. L’ho sfruttato per lo più per editing di foto e video. Uso il formato Raw e edito i video in 1080, solo qualcosina in 4k (ma molto raramente). Non ho avuto rallentamenti o errori di sorta.
Nei giochi non mi ha fatto da collo di bottiglia ed ho potuto godere appieno dei titoli provati.
Ho fatto dei test sia su pc che su Mac usando due programmi divers. Non ho mai raggiunto i 550 MB/s dichiarati. Ma con Disk speed test ( su Mac) i 324 MB/s in scrittura e i 370 MB/s in lettura di media. Mentre su Win 10 i 450 MB/s sia in scrittura e lettura. Non so a cosa sia dovuta questa differenza, ma nell’uso quotidiano non si nota. Mi ritengo soddisfatto!
Per quanto riguarda la capacità di Storage mi trovo bene con i 500 Gb, ma nel futuro cercherò qualcosa di più capiente. Alcuni giochi ormai occupano 100 Gb se non di più. Anche le foto e video diventano sempre più ingombranti.
Conclusioni e prezzo:
Ho pagato circa 95 euro per portarlo a casa nel dicembre 2020, sono contento dell’acquisto!! Confrontandolo con prodotti simili (gennaio 2022), anche della stessa marca, si prendere uno storage da 1Tb alla stessa cifra o poco più.

También lo he probado para instalar una versión del sistema operativo de Apple en un iMac del 2013 y, aunque conectado al puerto USB del ordenador, ha dado unos resultados sorprendentes por la rapidez en cargar el sistema y por el funcionamiento bastante fluido del mismo dentro del iMac.
En cuanto al físico del SSD es muy pequeño, muy transportable con unas medidas de 97 mm de largo x 49 mm. de ancho x 8 mm. de grueso, con un orificio por donde meter una argolla y llevarlo encima siempre. La conexión al pc es mediante puerto USB-C (trae el cable) y también si no tenemos puerto USB-C en el portátil, un adaptador para transformar el puerto USB-C a puerto UB 2.0 o 3.0. Según las características del anuncio, es impermeable al agua aunque yo no lo probaré por razones obvias (al menos nos dice que es resistente al agua en el caso que se nos caiga en algún lugar mojado).

However it also feels rugged as the description advertises. I could probably drop this and not damage the actual flash storage.
It comes formatted as exFAT which is what you want. It works on every major OS (Windows, Mac, Linux) and handles large files and external flash storage well. Other formats I've found only work properly on one OS and especially with FAT32 don't accept large files. Don't reformat it unless you have to but if you do have to I recommend formatting it again as exFAT unless you're doing something very specific that needs a different format (e.g. backup software that takes "snapshots" of your OS and data usually require specialised formats).
I originally got this to backup my laptop but since the internal storage on my laptop is almost full I've ended up filling this drive with media instead and honestly might just buy another one for backups. And I would have no problem buying this exact drive again too.
The only downside is the short cable and awkward adapter. It's easy to buy a third party one of course but the included cable is awkward to have plugged into a laptop as it just hangs off when you lift the laptop up. To be fair though it does stay plugged in just fine while hanging which is good because it could corrupt data otherwise. Oh and if you don't have a spare USB-C port and need to use the adapter for USB-A (regular old USB) make sure you put the adapter on the right way around! Yes there is a right way with this. If you put it on upside down it'll keep unplugging itself from the computer and you'll get data corruption. When fitted the right way it's solid. And again you can cheaply buy long high quality USB-C to USB-A and USB-C to USB-C cables right here on Amazon. I got a pack of three for under a tenner. Bargain.
Oh one more small complaint. It came with some encryption software on it. This seems to be closed source and I can't see much info on how it works. I wouldn't trust random closed source software with encrypting my data personally. It's nice SanDisk is clearly taking encryption somewhat seriously at least but I recommend using some tried and trusted open source encryption software like VeraCrypt instead.
Overall highly recommend this drive. Light, durable, fast, probably going to be very reliable (it's an SSD made by experts in memory), great build quality especially for this price, has USB-C which is good future proofing even if you don't use it right now. Only warnings I'd give are buy a better cable for it and don't use the included encryption software.

However it also feels rugged as the description advertises. I could probably drop this and not damage the actual flash storage.
It comes formatted as exFAT which is what you want. It works on every major OS (Windows, Mac, Linux) and handles large files and external flash storage well. Other formats I've found only work properly on one OS and especially with FAT32 don't accept large files. Don't reformat it unless you have to but if you do have to I recommend formatting it again as exFAT unless you're doing something very specific that needs a different format (e.g. backup software that takes "snapshots" of your OS and data usually require specialised formats).
