SanDisk 2TB Extreme PRO Portable SSD, USB-C USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 External NVMe Solid State Drive up to 2000 MB/s IP65 rated for dust and water resistance

Product Information

USB 3.2 Gen 1 (a.k.a. the old USB 3.0), typically good enough a ceiling for older external SSDs with SATA-based silicon, caps read and write speeds for external SSDs at about 550MBps and 500MBps respectively. While you can use the Extreme Pro V2 drive with any of these interfaces, buying it without provision for a Gen 2x2 interface would be like buying a Corvette for runs to the grocery store.

The normal version of the Extreme Portable V2 is slightly smaller than the Extreme Pro Portable V2.Save time storing and transferring data with the forged aluminum chassis that also acts as a heatsink to deliver higher sustained speeds.

Get fast NVMe™ solid state performance featuring 1050MB/s 2 read and 1000MB/s 2 write speeds in a portable, high-capacity drive that’s perfect for creating amazing content or capturing incredible footage. The new SanDisk Extreme Pro v2 comes with some changes under the hood, too. A new ASMedia ASM2364 bridge controller communicates with the host at faster speeds because it has twice the PCIe lane count as the ASM2362, which means twice the throughput. Not only does it maintain a speedy 20 Gbps link while connected to a PCIe 3.0 x4 SSD, but it also features link power management to reduce idle power consumption. The controller also supports Trim to keep performance predictable. Also, that enclosure is made with an older Alpine Ridge TB3 controller, not titan ridge or newer like on some of these portable SSDs. So, its older tech. From SanDisk, the brand professional photographers worldwide trust to handle best shots on their toughest assignments.The SanDisk Extreme Portable V2 is smaller than the pro version. It is also the only one to offer a 500 GB capacity option. Get extra peace of mind with a 5-year limited warranty 3 and a durable silicon shell that offers a premium feel and added protection to the drive’s exterior. The SanDisk Extreme Portable Solid State Drive V2 and SanDisk Extreme Pro Portable Solid State Drive V2 both come with a 5-year limited warranty. SanDisk recently released the second-generation models of the Extreme Portable Solid State Drive and Extreme Pro Portable Solid State Drive. So, what are the main differences between these two storage drives? The pro version of the Extreme Portable V2 is 950 MB per second faster than the normal version when it comes to the maximum sequential reading speed.

Up to three-meter drop protection and IP65 water and dust resistance 5 mean this durable drive can take a beating. Hemat waktu dalam menyimpan dan mentransfer data dengan casing aluminium tempa yang juga berfungsi sebagai heatsink untuk menghadirkan kecepatan stabil yang lebih tinggi. The SanDisk Extreme Pro Portable V2 is also the only one of the two to come with a forged aluminum chassis that functions as a heat sink.The pro version also has the advantage over the normal version when comparing the maximum sequential writing speed. This means that the two storage drives are protected against any potential damages that could be caused by dust buildup. Another thing about the flash memory is the indurance of the cell, how many times the memory cell accepts write/erase cycles until it starts to "wear" and not store anymore the information. That number is in the hundreds now days. If you read correctly the specification of an SSD drive, you will find a specification called "TBW", total bytes written. Dividing that number by the capacity of the drives yields the number of erase/write cycles that will wear the cells.

We tested the Sandisk Extreme Pro 1TB external portable SSD using a Dell Latitude 7490 business laptop which is equipped with a Thunderbolt 3 port. Note that the Extreme pro Portable SSD v2 includes support for hardware encryption via the Sandisk SecureAccess application. Editor’s Note, August 17, 2023: As recently reported in Ars Technica , a critical mass of users on SanDisk’s forums and Reddit have reported failures of some SanDisk Extreme, Extreme Pro, Extreme V2, and Extreme Pro V2 SSDs, resulting in data loss, as well as the drives becoming unreadable/unmountable. In May, parent company WD released firmware updates for the 4TB SanDisk Extreme, as well as the 4TB, 2TB, and 1TB Extreme Pro models, plus the 4TB Western Digital My Passport, but complaints continue. We are doing our own stress-testing of the sample drives we originally reviewed. As of today, however, we no longer recommend buying any of the aforementioned SSDs, until we are satisfied the issue has been resolved. ( A class-action suit has been levied against WD surrounding issues with these drives.) We have left our original review in place here for reference.] In terms of percentages, the Extreme Pro Portable V2 is 90.48% faster than the Extreme Portable V2.SanDisk provides a generous five-year warranty, which we have also seen on other Western Digital products such as the 2020 version of the My Passport SSD.
