Highlights
Quality
This is a very nice build of external hard disk.
Thus far my experience has been very good, as i'm utilizing this for storage of larger files used in video editing.
I don’t believe my system was triggering the thunderbolt 4 protocol as i wasn’t getting the advertised speeds.
This ssd with it's thunderbolt port has completely changed that.
Price
It's not the cheapest option but when it comes to irreplaceable files and the time to transfer them this thing is worth every penny.
Overall, if you need a very fast external ssd for projects, this one does very well - but it is somewhat costly.
Packaging/appearance
The packaging it self is pretty sustainable, and the hard drive it self is pretty solid built seems works in some critical conditions.
Competitiveness
And for those of you who are curious, the costco sandisk extreme go is a slightly slower performer compared to the sandisk extreme pro.

Initially i used the included cable as did another reviewer but those results didnt quite make 1000mb in sequential reads

I dont know why such a feeble cable is included with this very fast drive

For readers of this review i held my breath and dropped the g40 from waist high first on carpet then on a floor protector as one uses under an office chair and finally on a very hard floor
