This is amazing – expands your storage and speed. Make sure you buy the Extreme PRO. We have the regular, the extreme, and now use the Extreme pro – We use them on set to immediately backup RED SSD’s and we also use them to ship all the files to our customers, in addition to providing them a copy on the cloud. We were Lacie customers, but had three fail, so far so good with Scandisk

I love this drive I’m a 4K 6K video editor and this little drive really delivers. Great for moving large projects from the studio to a remote working environment. I edit on a MacBook Pro, I love how this drive doesn’t disconnect on me like other USB-C/thunderbolt 3 drives. Being able to connect to USB and move files is a huge plus. You’re not trapped to only using thunderbolt 3. Super fast!

Professional photographer and I always use SanDisk, these Extreme Pro’s work great and crazy fast paired to the new MacBook Pro M1 Max.

A great edition to my mobile editing rig. Faster than any external drive I have ever owned. Also great for moving big files between folks as well.

I purchased this for my photography use mainly. Lightroom Classic & Photoshop can access/load things a whole lot quicker than my internal drive. This is a very quick read/write drive. The portabilty of this drive is a huge plus. I’m not noticing any huge heat issues either. Great purchase !!

Worked with the 2TB for about a year, then doubled up to the 4TB. I edit straight off this drive and it works great.

I wanted to reduce the number of files on my Mac and moved all my pictures and edits to the external hard drive. Even though the disk comes formatted for Mac or PC I would make sure you reformat the disk before use. The speed is great and have had no issues.

BIG Let down is: It says this disk is Up to 2000 MB/s Read & Write Speeds, yup I know it’s UP to, but this was way slower than the expectation. I ran multiple tests and disk formats, via USB-C and thunderbolt 3 ports, never exceeded 1000mb/s, best result is hanging around 900 mb/s MAX. I brought this external SSD for video editing and reviewing, clearly cannot handle 4K 50p or more. I bought the 4TB version of this PRO SSD v2, and the funny thing is that this is supposed to be better than the SanDisk 4TB Extreme Portable SSD V2, which is labeled as Up to 1050 mb/s and $200 less. I simply can’t understand why this PRO version cannot go beyond 900 mb/s but still cost $200 more than the standard version, especially since the standard version is labeled for1050 mb/s?? I can’t say that the standard version is maybe also fake labeled(?) but I don’t feel like I want to make another purchase to just test it. My bottom line is, if you’re looking for a faster SSD for your video editing over mac, maybe better off looking somewhere else. if the Blackmagic disk test does not approve it, you should avoid it. I end up ordering the SanDisk Professional 2TB G-DRIVE PRO SSD Thunderbolt 3 External SSD instead right away after the testing. I know it’s still from SanDisk and 2TB less with the same price point, but I would like to try once more since I trust the name of G-DRIVE from my previous experience. I’ll run parallel tests for both before I return this one and we will see…

Great product, pretty much perfect as far as external hard drives go

The SanDisk 4TB Pro is fantastic. Easy to use, fast and is very small, so it travels well. An SSD gives you much more confidence there will be no failure, that you might risk with a mechanical memory device.

This is now my Time Machine backup for the MacBook Pro 16″ photo lab. It is slightly bigger than the 2 TB models I use to store photographs for personal and professional work. The ring cutout is also different but none of that matters. Welcome to the future of external drives!

It’s fast, it’s quiet, it’s sturdy and you forget that it’s even there. I use mine for audio sample libraries, mostly Native Instruments. On a MacBook Pro with 64GB of RAM and Thunderbolt it’s sooooooo fast.. like really really fast to load multiples of plug-ins, it’s not even funny. No lagtime. So happy with this purchase. Thanks B&H!

The port appears to have been manufactured with a male connection instead of a female…so bizarre!

I plan on using this with my incoming M1Max Macbook, but tested it out with my PC for fun until it arrives next week. When transferring video footage from my PC to this drive over USB 3.1 Gen 2 it was only 350 MB/sec; Over USB-C it was 650MB/sec. When transferring that same video footage back to the PC it was over 3 GB/sec each.

I did some read and write tests with the extreme (non pro) SSD V2 and this one clearly is quite a bit faster. Small size is great for my computer or camera bag.

This is the fourth SanDisk SSD I’ve purchased in this form factor. All of them continue working great. This is my first one that’s 4TB and it operates just like my 2TB versions.

This little drive is super fast, it is a great drive for people that need the fastest data transfer speed.

I knew it was small from the photos, but in person, it’s surprising to see just how small it actually is–makes my IPhone look huge. When connected to my Apple M1, it transfers files very quickly and, of course, silently. I now realize my old RAID hard drives make quite a racket! When working for several minutes or more, the SSD does heat up but not enough to be a problem. For its size, speed and convenience, I recommend this SSD.

There have been a lot of reviews on here of people being upset that they are getting around 1000 MB/s read-write speeds and not the 2000 MB/s promised. The reason for this is that no computers have hardware that can utilize the newest USB form USB 3.2 Gen 2×2 which this hard drive uses. If you want to see 2k MB/s you are going to need to buy a Yottamaster C5 for your PC. If you have a mac just stick with thunderbolt 3.
