More storage than SD cards

The SSD I recently tested is impressive in several key areas. Firstly, it is incredibly light, making it an ideal choice for portable devices where weight is a concern. Secondly, its high capacity allows for ample storage of files, applications, and media without the need for external drives. Lastly, the speed of this SSD is remarkable, significantly reducing boot times and improving overall system performance. Overall, this SSD offers a great combination of portability, storage, and speed, making it a valuable addition to any tech setup.

This is a plane!! It meets specifications.

I read that many users have had serious issues with crashes and incompatibility. But in my case, I must say I'm incredibly grateful for the transfer speed and compatibility on my MacBook Pro M1-2020. I use it to save and play Hi-Res and Flac music files from my CDs, as well as DSD files. I play them with Audirvana and Roon. I couldn't be more satisfied with this product... and I've had it for two years. I'm even seriously considering upgrading to the SDSSDE61-8T00. I think that in my case and given the way I use it, its transfer speed of 1050MB/s would be more than enough.

The bytes transfer fast and for the most part both

As a content creator I use tons of GBs worth of video, audio etc. I write it to one 2023 Sandisk Extreme Pro and back it up with another 2025 Sandisk Extreme Pro . The bytes transfer fast and for the most part both are very stable. I do get an occasional dropped drive (from the 2023 model) which is annoying, but other than that, they are both priceless. I do wish there was a way to get an external drive that would last forever.
