Capacity and interface

This SanDisk Extreme Pro USB 3.2 Gen 1 flash drive offers 512GB of storage in a compact Type A form factor. Read speeds reach up to 420MB/s and write speeds up to 380MB/s, enabling a full-length 4K movie transfer in under 15 seconds or 1000 photos in under 25 seconds. A durable aluminum metal casing protects the drive from everyday wear and tear.

Suitable uses and limits

The drive suits photographers, videographers and professionals moving large media libraries quickly between devices with USB-A ports. Built-in 128-bit AES encryption via SanDisk SecureAccess software helps secure sensitive files. Users requiring a USB Type-C connector, higher throughput than USB 3.2 Gen 1 provides, or ruggedised water and dust resistance should consider other options.

Deciding specification

The USB 3.2 Gen 1 interface with Type A connector determines compatibility and maximum transfer performance for this 512GB drive. Backward compatibility with USB 2.0 and 3.0 ports ensures broad device support. Included RescuePRO Deluxe data recovery software (download required) adds a safety net for accidental deletions.

Questions about this item

Which capacity should I choose if I need to move large 4K video files quickly?

The 512 GB model transfers a full-length 4K movie in under 15 seconds and 1000 photos in under 25 seconds, giving ample space and speed for large media projects.

What does the 420 MB/s read speed mean when I plug the drive into my laptop?

In real use the drive reads up to 420 MB/s, so large folders and 4K footage open almost instantly, cutting wait time during editing or playback.

How does the USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-A interface limit performance on older ports?

On USB 2.0 ports speeds drop to the 2.0 maximum, while USB 3.0 or 3.2 Gen 1 ports deliver the full 420 MB/s read and 380 MB/s write rates.
