4TB NVMe Portable SSD

The SanDisk Extreme Portable SSD delivers up to 1050MB/s read and 1000MB/s write speeds over USB 3.2 Gen 2 in a 52g IP65-rated enclosure. Hardware AES-256 encryption and a carabiner loop secure data on the move. It works with Windows 10+ and macOS 10.13+ via the included USB-C cable and Type-A adapter.

Creators needing rugged high-capacity storage

Photographers and videographers who want fast NVMe performance with drop and water resistance will benefit. Users who require a desktop RAID array or internal M.2 installation should look elsewhere.

USB 3.2 Gen 2 interface speed

The drive connects through a single USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-C port, limiting peak throughput to the rated 1050MB/s read and 1000MB/s write. Verify that your host port supports this generation to achieve the advertised performance.

Questions about this item

How do I connect the drive and which cable do I use for the USB 3.2 Gen 2 interface?

Plug the USB Type-C to Type-C cable into a USB 3.2 Gen 2 port; use the Type-C to Type-A adapter only if the host lacks a Type-C port, which drops speed to the host's limit.

What part of the SanDisk Extreme Portable SSD wears out and when should I plan a replacement?

The NVMe flash memory has a finite write endurance; with typical creative workloads on a 4 TB drive, expect many years before replacement is needed.

What speed ceiling appears first during long video offloads on this SSD?

Sustained writes will settle at the 1000 MBps sequential write limit once the SLC cache fills, so plan for that throughput on extended transfers.
