SABRENT 2TB External Aluminum SSD, Rocket Nano V2, USB 3.2 Gen 2x2, 1500 MB/s Transfer Speeds [SB-2TB-NAV2]

This drive is small, sturdy, and super handy. Transfer speeds are blazing fast, just as advertised, and it handles large files with ease. The aluminum case with silicone cover gives it a solid feel, so you don’t have to worry about knocks or drops. Feels like it has endless storage in such a tiny form!. Perfect for 4K/8K video workflows on the go. Highly recommended!

Fantastic drive. Got the USB version, which allows me to film 4k 120 fps in ProRes HQ to this device with zero dropped frames! And since its so low power, it plugs directly into the iphone with no external power needed.If i do need long filming times, i stick a mag safe charger to the back of the phone and attach a small portable power bank. So nice!

Very portable and super fast I love that I have this and I'm able to keep files between my laptop and the flash drive well not having to suffer Waiting a long time.

Decent amount of space, no problem with heat levels, connection may be an issue. It o thinks that could because of certain other things. Works good.

I bought their previous generation of this product after reading all the terrible reviews on it, about how slow it is, and you might get the rated speeds for a minute before it nose dives into oblivion. Which is annoying given how nice and small these things are, but I came prepared, both back then and this time around. HEAT SINKS!!! 50mm x 25mm x 10mm with thermal pad pre-applied. It works, they don't get hot. This version is nice, since it comes with a silicone bumper. SO... Took that to heart, and placed the heat sink on top where the giant hole is which I assume is there to allow the unit to breath. DOES, sadly double its height, but keeps it cool and gets better performance. I get about 1,000MBs sustained.I remember I took my thermostat gun to the old Sabrent and it got to 110F. Which means inside it was a lot hotter and hit its thermal junction. This stays safe to the touch even after 4hrs of file transferring after the heat sink mod. So, I came into both products EXPECTING this issue, and having had enough thumb drives and SSDs, I'm used to these issues and know how to correct them. By the way, the 4pk of Heat Sinks (50mm x 25mm x 10mm) cost me $10.Conclusion:It's the smallest 4TB drive out there, at a decent price and decent speeds. THOUGH, the Sandisk Extreme Pro does stay cool and does do double the speed for less price while not requiring post-purchase modding. I like this due to its size and industrial look. I do recommend it, if you don't mind do the heat sink hack and adding 10mm to its z-height. Though the Sandisk Extreme and Extreme Pros do weigh more than this device even with the 12g heat sink mod. It puts this device's total weight at 62g or over 2 ounces. It's lighter and technically has a slightly smaller footprint than the Sandisk option. I have both so I don't have to choose. I like it, knew what I was getting into and prepared as such.

The spec on paper reads about 1500 megabits per second read/ write, compared to the SanDisk Extreme pro's, which are somewhere in the 2000 megabits per second range, but this thing is crazy fast!I'm using it to back up my Google drive, through a drive imaging software, as well as straight file transfer both of which run at around 22 gig in volume. The transfer time from my PC to the SSD was about 2 minutes to do 22 gigs and around the same to do it as backup drive image. I then tried it to do the same transfer to and from my Samsung S23 Ultra, and it was as quick as doing it from a PC. So all in all, this thing is incredibly quick and it's half the size of a SanDisk SSD.I also like it for its size and the aluminum case as well. It came with a protective rubber sheath, which is perfect to keep the finish looking nice and clean. It's the first time I move away from SanDisk to another brand and I'm not disappointed! It's a bit more expensive than the SanDisk, but worth every penny.

Very handy for transferring files from old computer to new computer. In general a better transfer rate than Wi-Fi. Good doomsday drive to store files in your vault or bunker. |:-) Available in 1T, 2T, and 4T sizes. 2T seems to be the sweet spot in price per T right now.

I gave it a bad review first, at least to the seller, because the pc could not assign it a drive letter, but it recognized it by giving that external drive sound.After formating it through disk management and assigning it a drive letter, it has been working since. It has instructions to go through device manager but it was useless. Seller needs to send instructions to resolve the drive letter issue through disk management. Now, it is fast!
