512 GB dual-connector flash drive

This 512 GB SanDisk Extreme PRO drive combines a USB Type-C plug and a USB Type-A plug in one metal body. It lets creative professionals and mobile workers move large project files between laptops, tablets and phones without carrying an adapter. The USB 3.2 Gen 2 interface supports up to 1,000 MB/s read and 900 MB/s write speeds.

Sustained transfer behaviour

Manufacturer highlights note that the drive is engineered to endure, suggesting the metal casing helps manage heat during long copy sessions. Write speeds of up to 900 MB/s are quoted for the drive, so extended writes should remain closer to that figure than to a short-burst peak. No thermal-throttling data or sustained-write test results are supplied.

USB 3.2 Gen 2 interface decision

The single specification that determines fit is the USB 3.2 Gen 2 hardware interface, which requires a host port capable of 10 Gbit/s signalling to reach the advertised 1,000 MB/s read speed. Buyers whose devices only offer USB 3.2 Gen 1 or USB 2.0 ports will see lower throughput and should verify their port capabilities before purchase.

Questions about this item

Does the metal casing of the Extreme PRO Dual Drive get hot during sustained 1,000 MB/s reads?

The drive is engineered with a sophisticated metal design built to endure high-performance workloads, though surface temperature will vary with workload and host ventilation.

What host port is required to reach the advertised 1,000 MB/s read speed?

A USB 3.2 Gen 2 port (USB Type-C or Type-A) is needed; the drive includes both connectors for direct attachment to either port type.

Will the drive work at full speed when plugged into an older USB 3.0 Type-A port?

It is backward compatible with USB 3.0 and USB 2.0 ports, but speeds will be limited to the host port's maximum capability.
