The editors didn't like
Struggles some with large block random activity
Somewhat Pricier Than Some Competing Drives
Does not support hardware based encryption
Pricey
Useful only with heavier workloads
Not quite as fast overall as recent Samsung 850-Series SSDs
No sub-240GB capacity
The drive doesn't support self-encryption
Slower than the rival 960 Pro without caching involved
Slightly slower reading files than Samsung's T7
It's outdone by the performance of Samsung's 850 Pro and we would've liked to have seen hardware encryption included.

Without a doubt, the Extreme II was one of the best SSDs we ever tested, and I wasn't sure if any company would be able to best its performance with a SATA based product. Little did I know it would be SanDisk looking to raise the bar again, this time wit...

We wanted to focus on the 960GB Extreme PRO first since this drive is in a category of its own. The Extreme PRO is the first real 1TB class model to focus on consistent performance at this capacity size. We've tested some good 1TB class drives, but nothi...

You can consider yourself lucky if you purchased an SSD last year. Since then not a lot has happened when it comes to the performance, while the prices have gone up. However, using a hard drive as boot disk is not necessary at all - there are more than en...
Abstract: Solid-state storage is standard-issue for storing data in tablets and smartphones, where it's relied upon for its tiny size and rugged nature. Those same virtues can be handy in desktop PCs and especially laptops too, but it's the speed of an SSD (solid-s...
First of all the best middleclass SSD that you can use. Based on the performance and the good price the Sandisk Ultra II 480GB is the best choice. The Sandisk performs nearly as well as the fastest SATA600-drives in the test, but for a much lower price...
The number of SSDs with a capacity of 1 TB is still relatively small. There are much more 500 GB SSDs available. Nevertheless you can find some interesting models. On top of this list we find the Sandisk Ultra II 960GB, because of its very wallet-frien...
Samsung's 850 Pro SSDs are without a doubt the fastest SSDs of this moment. Given that this product does not seem to have any flaws, we heartily recommend it to those who are looking for the fastest possible SSD. The Vector 150 and AMD Radeon R7 SSDs ar...
Fast sequential read and write speeds, Long 10, year warranty, Good endurance
No power, loss protection or encryption, Slightly lower IOPS than class, leading drives, High, capacity SSDs remain a pricey prospect
The Extreme Pro is a great performing SSD and it's fairly priced, so deserves a recommendation. The long warranty is another bonus, and the endurance is good too. Although the drive's measured IOPS didn't quite hit the same level as some of Samsung's eff...

Fairly recently I had the opportunity to take a look at a SanDisk Ultra II 240GB SSD and it certainly didn't disappoint. This time we have an SSD from the fastest range SanDisk have to offer, the SanDisk Extreme PRO 480GB , but is it as Extreme as its na...
Top performance, Solid consistency throughout the benchmarks, Great design, Reasonable £/GB in terms of performance, 10 year warranty
Not the cheapest SSD on the market
So the first ever SanDisk product featured at Play3r has been on the test bench, has been benched and it's time for my final thoughts. What a more apt product to feature than their premier SSD, the Extreme PRO and with a capacity of 480GB, it should sure...
