At the prices they have reached for SSDs, this particular one, at 500GB, is a necessity solution for certain cases (DCP).
The only "negative"(?) is that it has content security lock, with a user login password (if that is negative...). Otherwise, an excellent choice.

One of the best implementations in an external SSD drive. Very well built, extremely fast and compact. Fantastic product.

I work with this specific drive on the DJ console Pioneer Xdj RX 3 and it is simply fantastic, I had previously bought the 1 TB which I use with the MacBook, I never had an idea about it!! Very fast and does not lag, really for those DJ colleagues looking for a drive for their console, I recommend it without reservation..!!

Excellent disk for transporting and storing music. Especially for DJs, whether they need a backup or need music for Rekordbox to play on CDJs

Very practical, fast, and small. I made the mistake of getting the 1 T while for 20€ more I could have bought the 2 T☹️

Quite good build quality. Its size is its biggest selling point and it is truly amazing. The speeds are incredible!

Purchase in order to be used for video recording from iPhone 15pro. It connected instantly and recorded using the mobile's native application. Management is done through the files app where you can "see" it as soon as you connect it. Capacity for 1T ssd = 280min. It is necessary to purchase a usb-c cable > usb-c of greater length in order to be able to use it comfortably and safely (e.g. the disk to be in the belt or pocket). Pay attention to the quality of the cable so that there are no losses in recording speed. (what Apple provides for charging is not the best for video recording)

Great caution because according to information it tends to disappear data without warning

The best external SSD on the market, high-quality and fast! I had bought the previous generation V1 USB 3 years ago and it was excellent. The V2 has double the speed, highly recommended without hesitation!

The disk is incredibly fast, transferring 47GB from the MacBook Air (M1) to the disk in less than 2 minutes!! Excellent construction and credit card size!!

Daily use on Mac M1 - A necessary purchase for a laptop with built-in SSD. And to avoid damaging the health of the built-in disk, amazing speeds. I also use it for video editing. I will buy one or two more, maybe larger this time. Size of a palm.

Surname, fast, light, small, beautiful, made a system backup (image backup) of 69GB in 2 minutes and 52". The speed mentioned on skroutz is wrong. The correct one is about 1000MB/s (nominal always), see also the manufacturer's website (https://www.westerndigital.com/el-gr/products/portable-drives/sandisk-extreme-usb-3-2-ssd#SDSSDE61-1T00-G25)
- none

The evaluation concerns the smaller 500GB one. I bought the 1TB one this year, but I haven't needed to use it yet. However, I think that the fact that I bought a second one after a year of experience with the first one also shows my opinion.

Bought it for all my work and mainly to use it as an external on both Mac & PC, obviously in exFat.

I didn't measure the speed, but it works like a charm!

It gets slightly warm but not worryingly so. The cable is a bit tight and frustratingly short, but the accessories are sufficient.

The design is decent and the size is much smaller than I expected.

I wish it was cheaper, but the 5-year warranty is what won me over.

My goal is to blow it up. Will the wires come out from the trillions of read n' writes I'll do to it in order to kill it before the pentadecade? Can I do it?

From iPad Pro, file transfer of 1.46GB in 36 seconds.
From Windows, file transfer of 1.14GB in 1.03 minutes.

A USB-C to USB-C cable is provided, measuring 10 centimeters (which is very short).
A USB-C to USB-A adapter is also provided.

Dimensions: 100mm x 55mm x 8mm.

My computer is a decade old.
I'm sure that on newer computers and Android devices, file transfer speeds are much faster.
