Highlights
Quality
I’ve been using this for games and am really happy with the quality.
The solid-state drive, desk drive, delivers exceptional speed and performance.
Immediately reformatted for apfs and transferred close to 4tb of data from my raid.
It's also not a smart device, it's strictly external solid state mass storage.
Price
This external ssd is definitely on the pricey side, but it offers impressive download and upload speeds in a compact case.
At the time of this review, this drive was priced at $379.
99 for the 4tb version and $699.
Despite its high cost, you're getting very high performance.
Packaging/appearance
Upon opening the box, i was impressed with the simplicity and durable external drive.
Competitiveness
While i would like it to be less expensive, i think from a reputable company like sandisk, i am paying for a quality memory device.

Addressing the elephant in the room this external requires its own power supply it cannot simply run off of being connected to a computer

As uncommon as that is today you should know it before purchasing and if that’s a deal breaker then you need a different external device

For me the only limitation is bringing this drive in the field or maybe using it at an airport which i personally wouldn’t do anyway

It’s not inconvenient to bring it from home to the office or using it in a hotel and even a lot of coffee shops have plugs near tables today

I do not do any video work so i cannot speak to how well it would perform but i would expect very well

For a “portable” ssd it is on the chunky side definitely not pocketable but when sitting on my desk or a hotel bedside table i wouldn’t consider it oversized or inconvenient
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
I do think it is a bit too pricey but currently the options for an 8tb external ssd are limited
