  • SanDisk’s Extreme series represents the entry of a serious competitor into the already crowded high end SSD market. For the most part, SanDisk has successfully differentiated themselves from the competition by delivering an impressive drive using a pot...

  • Any performance limits we found while testing the SanDisk Extreme 480GB are nullified by one simple fact - $359. That price makes the SanDisk Extreme 480GB SSD one of the lowest priced, high capacity SSDs on the market, and it's not even a drive with ...

  • Everything we said about the SanDisk Extreme SSD 240GB in the past still rings true today. SanDisk has an advertisement on their site that pulls a quote from my last article, "" I feel that statement holds true today, five months after writing it for...

  • For me, the progress made by SanDisk with their new 24nm Toggle Mode flash is very exciting. For you, the end result of using a smaller die size for the flash is exciting. This is because with each die shrink more flash can be manufactured per 300m...

  • Smart design, 1TB model is great value, Excellent performance, IP55 rating
  • Not totally convinced by the cable
  • This SanDisk drive is hands-down one of the best external SSDs (rugged or not) on the market, and its 1TB version is particularly attractive compared to the other SKUs. Some cracking performance numbers and a very low price make this product hard to fault...
