The SanDisk 1TB memory storage is useful, convenient, fairly priced and just the right size.

Light weight and fast. Got this for my M1 Mac. And this is the best choice I made. Faster computer needs faster transfer.

Not simple enough

Bought this years ago and just reminded why I haven't used it since. The Vault! I hate it, don't need, and didn't know it was a part of it when I researched and bought it. Can the device be used without going into the vault? I don't know, because the manufacture couldn't provide that detail in instructions. All mentions is setting up the "Vault". Also can't see thumbnails for pics. This is deal breaker All I want is for the device to act like other easier to use backup drives I've owned.

Too many incompatibilities with macOS
on December 7, 2021
Posted by: MSM126
I bought the SanDisk 1TB Extreme Pro to use as a back up drive with Time Machine. Unfortunately, after considerable time spent with Apple support and WD, I was never able to get this drive to work with Time Machine.
I then decided to use the SanDisk as a clone drive. I could not get it to work as a clone drive with macOS using Apple Disk Utility. I then tried to use it as a clone drive using Super Duper!, which also did not work. I then tried ChronoSync ... also ends in an error.
The physical size, amount of storage and speed of the SanDisk is great; but is of zero value for me as after weeks and weeks of trying I can't get it to work for what I need.

The size and amount of storage is great. For the price, it is well worth buying to secure pictures.

Gets corrupted almost monthly then I need to reformat. No idea why this happens but on current iteration when I plug it in it won't show up on desktop but appears in diskUtility. Would be great if it actually worked properly

hi I have 2 TB Sandisk SSD Extreme Pro with 2000 MBps but I can only get the speed of 1000 MBps. I am using latest MacBook Pro M1 pro 2021 with USB 4 / thunderbolt 4 port. I can't find any article to fix this problem.
