The editors liked
This drive offers high performance when transferring largeblocksize data
But you need to have the additional hardware to take advantage of the throughput speeds. USB 3.1 Generation 2 is new to market
And very few computers ship with the interface right
Impact resistant
Fast performance
Can be used out of box with Mac or PC
Comes with USB-C-to-USB-C cable
Software enables 128-bit AES encryption
Reasonable price
The SanDisk Extreme 900 Portable SSD is super fast
And includes both a USB-C cable and a regular USB cable
So it'll work with all USB ports for the foreseeable future
Amazingly fast
Includes a USBC port
A drive that can hit 10Gbps USB 3.1 speeds
Includes both USB Type C and USB Type A cables
Gives you all the speed you demand in a portable drive
The editors didn't like
Pricing is consistent with what we would expect
But we would like to see a reduction. The drive is bulky compared to the Samsung T3 that also ships in a 2TB capacity
Size but the Extreme 900 uses two SATA SSDs in RAID 0
So it has to be larger.
Bulky for an SSD
The drive is large and slightly more expensive compared to competing drives. The three-year warranty is too short
Expensive
As big as a portable hard disk drive
Not exactly cheap
A 10Gbps USB 3.1 port is needed to take advantage of it

Color me impressed. Not only is SanDisk the first major player out there with a 10Gbps USB drive, but the company has implemented it extremely well. I wish MLC (Multi-Level Cell/2-bit) NAND were used, for more consistent write performance, but even the TL...

If you need a large-capacity external SSD for large sequential files, the SanDisk Extreme 900 delivers the highest performance available at this time. If your workload involves less data, then the performance drops due to the internal RAID configuration...
The Sandisk Extreme 900 is the fastest external SSD that we've ever tested. The difference between this and other SSDs is enormous in most tests: sometimes the Extreme 900 was more than twice as fast as the others. This makes it very suitable for people...

Strong performance results, USB 3.1 allows for very fast speeds, Aluminium housing
Expensive.
The SanDisk Extreme 900 is the first external Type-C SSD that we have tested and overall, it is a great performer. Not only does it offer plenty of storage with its 480GB capacity but its performance also puts it on par with many internal solid state driv...
