I loved this product. It is so fast, no need for an extra connecter, it has USB C, seems very safe and secure physically, and is very small and light. I use MacBook, no need for disk formatting which I normally do.
Useful notes on performance and speed:
- Benchmarking the v2 disk gives around 900MB/s read and write
- actual / real speed depends on so many variables: PC configuration (port specs, proper drivers), windows configuration (enabling write-cache, Windows Defender real-time protection), your copying tool, and the nature of the files you're working on / copying (smaller files will cause lower speed)
- the trick i learned the hard way to get best speed is to enable write-cache for the drive, and to disable Windows Defender real-time protection (or add the drive to "exclusions") during a long backup operation, otherwise windows will be inspecting each file being copied which will cause speed degradation.
- make sure to double-check your laptop USB port specs. This disk works best with USB 3.2 Gen 2 or higher. if your USB ports are lower specs, expect lower speeds (still fast enough though - even on USB 3.1)
- the drive gets warm - but no impact on performance, and it won't be "burning hot"
at this price for the extreme v2, this is great value.. and the upgraded speed is the best to get for now given the USB specs that are currently available for laptops

It worked as intended but became very warm even if it was doing nothing, just being connected. Whether or not this is normal I don't know, but I do know that excessive heat shortens the life of SSDs.
It also disconnected from the computer intermittently, with the OS thinking that it had been removed, so was proving to be unreliable. Returned for refund, with no problems there.
I note that there have been other buyers who have had the same problems.

Para que la transferencia del disco se acerque a los 2000 MBytes/s necesitas un ordenador equipado con USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 (20 Gbits/s), de lo contrario sólo llegarás a algo menos de 1000 MBytes/s como el modelo de 1050 MBytes/s que es más económico. Pocos ordenadores llevan este tipo de puertos, así que compruébalo antes de elegir este SSD. Ese es el motivo de que haya tantas opiniones que dicen que no llega a la velocidad prometida. Mi MacBook Pro 16 tiene puertos que funcionan como Thunderbolt (hasta 40 Gbits/s) y USB 3.1 Gen 2 (hasta 10 Gbits/s) pero no son compatibles con USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 a pesar de que el Thunderbolt es todavía más rápido, así que en los test la máxima velocidad de lectura y de escritura ha sido de unos 950 MBytes/s. No lo he cambiado por el modelo PRO de 1050 MB/s porque sólo había una diferencia de 30€ y ya había instalado un montón de cosas en el disco. Además pensé que probablemente mi próximo ordenador sí llevará un puerto USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 que me permita sacarle todo el partido a este SSD. Si tuviera que comprarlo de nuevo elegiría la versión PRO de 1050 MB/s., pero tampoco es que esté arrepentido de tener este.

Die Festplatte wird in den Systeminformationen erkannt aber nicht im Finder angezeigt. (Ja, in den Finder Einstellungen sind externe Festplatten angehakt.)
Wir haben versch. Kabel getestet - keins hat zuverlässig funktioniert.
Die Festplatte wurde über zwei Tage und mehrere Versuche, Neustarts & Mac-Updates nur ein einziges Mal im Finder erkannt und konnte verwendet werden. Nach ordentlichem Auswerfen und wieder anstecken wurde die Festplatte wieder nicht im Finder erkannt. Auch eine Formatierung (als Sie einmal erkannt wurde) hat nicht geklappt (auf den letzten Block konnte nicht geschrieben werden). Unter Windows hat die Formatierung einwandfrei geklappt (ExFat).

1. Q: is it compatible with my iMac 2020 and iPad Pro 2018? (I'd read loads about compatibility issues and even contacted SanDisk who wouldn't commit to a clear answer). A: so far it works well with both, but see the speed results below.
2. Q: what speed does it give in real life? (I wanted to have around 1000 MBPS read and write speed even after sustained use). A: I did a Speedtest (Black Magic) through the Mac and it's giving approx. 950 MBPS read and write via the iMacs TB3 and USB port, which I'm very happy with. Remember, this is not a TB3 SSD. To get the full-rated 2000 MBps you'd need to use this with a USB 3.2 X2 port which my 2020 Mac doesn't have. Speed when connected to iPad? I'm not sure yet, but I'll revise this once I've worked it out. It's very decent though.
3. Q: why this particular SSD if you can't get the full speed out of it anyway?
A1: it's fast enough for my needs right now, but it's heavily future proofed for when speedier ports become available on Macs or iPads.
A2: it out performed similarly priced drives (Samsung T7, T5, Crucial X8, LaCie Rugged) and held its own against more expensive drives like Samsung X5, LaCie Rugged Pro, WD Black) with regards to speed and throttling, even after sustained use when transferring big files. (Throttling due to heat is a problem with many SSDs and claimed headline speeds aren't achieved in real life due to this).
A3: it's small, seems durable for travelling and has no sharp edges to scratch other equipment. It comes with a USB-C to USB-C and a USB-C to USB-A cable. Both are a good length (approx. 30cm) for placement behind an iMac.
A4: Its got a 5 year warranty.
My question was… Should I go for the Extreme V2 (non-Pro version) rated at 1000 MBPS and save myself £45? The reviews are coming up decent as well for that one. Not quite as fast over sustained use, (approximately 800-ish), but if you don't ever see yourself ever getting a USB3.2 X2 machine, that would be my second choice.

Je peux facilement retoucher des photos en les laissant sur le DD et en utilisant le catalogue Lightroom stocké sur le disque dur.
De plus il y a vraiment 1to de capacité de stockage dessus (et non 9xx giga comme ça peut être le cas lorsqu’on achète d’autres disque dur).
Je recommande !
