Abstract: Towards the end of last year, SanDisk updated its portable SSD lineup. They released the SanDisk Extreme PRO Portable SSD V2 and Extreme Portable SSD V2. Today, we are going to check out and review both versions 2 of SanDisk’s portable SSD. To be honest, the naming scheme is a bit confusing; since it is using the same name as their respective (slower) predecessor. So make sure it’s the “V2”, and with a “1” at the end of each SSD’s model number. If you are in the market for a fast portable SSD, go ahead and check out our review of the SanDisk Extreme Portable SSD V2, Pro and non-Pro, below.

Abstract: Most new computers don't come with much storage space -- unless you're splurging on a high-end model, they usually have 256 or 512 gigabytes. Game consoles such as the PS4 and Xbox One come with 1-terabyte drives (which is roughly 1,000GB), but if you don't regularly take games off the drive as you acquire more, the drives max out easily. A good storage solution is to find the best external hard drive for your needs. A traditional hard drive that uses "old" hard drive technology (mechanical platters and a moving read-write head to access data) is adequate for the majority of users, thanks to speedier USB-C and USB 3.0 (as well as 3.1/3.2) interfaces. Prices have dropped significantly in the last few years, with even mega-capacity models tipping the scales at 5TB but costing just over $100. A solid state drive doesn't have moving parts and has up to four times faster read speeds, but it costs a lot more per gigabyte.
Abstract: Compact, rugged, and blazingly fast, the SanDisk Extreme Pro Portable SSD V2 ($299.99 for 1TB, $499.99 for 2TB as tested) stands at the apex of SanDisk's Extreme line of solid-state drives. Built for video editors, photographers, animators, and other creatives aiming to take advantage of the very latest USB 3.2 standard to move ginormous volumes of files in a hurry, the Extreme Pro V2 turned in some of the fastest transfer speeds we've seen from an external SSD. However, since native support for the top version of USB (the 20Gbps USB 3.2 Gen 2x2) is harder to find than a Sony PlayStation 5 on a store shelf, you'll probably have to spring for an expansion card if you don't want to settle for the mortal speeds that a "mere" USB 3.2 Gen 2 interface will afford you.

Abstract: With the data CD's day well behind us and replaced by the trusty flash drive, what do you do if you have a lot of data you want to keep on you, data you want to access quickly? Portable hard drives have come a long way from the, really not-very-portable 3...
Good looks and build, Basic ruggerdisation, Solid performance
Newer, faster model available, No dustcap on USB-C port
Faster broadband and higher-quality files put renewed focus on a system's storage potential at a time when most are moving over exclusively to SSDs. Such a time presents a great opportunity for fast, portable external drives that can hold and move terabyt...

Performance, Encryption, 5-year warranty,
Data cables are a wee bit on the short side, Exposed USB port,
The Extreme Pro SSD joins a growing range of SanDisk external SSDs. With an NVMe SSD (WD Black SN750) inside it and a USB 3.1 Gen 2 Type-C interface, it certainly is a fast performing external drive. It is available in three capacities; 500GB, 1TB and 2TB...
