Set up for Time Machine was simple. Remains gently warm. Recovery of an accidentally deleted folder was easy and quick. Perhaps a bit pricey, but you get what you pay for - a first class portable drive. Review: Super fast - Probably the fastest portable drive currently available. Using it on a Mac Mini and it is nearly as fast as the inbuilt storage. Makes editing videos and photos super quick. The design is very sleek and it is small and very portable. It stays cooler than expected. The included cable is quite short but does the job. It is really expensive and only provides the top speeds with thunderbolt. If you have only usb 3.2 or don’t need the fastest available then there are much cheaper options available. ## Features - Super-fast speeds up to 2700MB/s(1) read and 1900MB/s(1) write with Thunderbolt 3 (40Gbps), capable of moving 50GB in 1 minute or less.date transfer rate:2700.0 megabytes_per_second - Dual-mode compatibility with both Thunderbolt 3 (40Gbps) and USB-C (10Gbps) - Ultra-rugged design with high-level IP68 dust/water resistance, 4000lb crush resistance, and 3m drop resistance (On a carpeted concrete floor.) - Cool aluminum core pulls heat away from the internal drive to help maintain super-fast transfer speeds - Pro-grade enclosure for premium strength you can feel ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0BGYMHS8Y | | Best Sellers Rank | 29,779 in Computers & Accessories ( See Top 100 in Computers & Accessories ) 128 in External Hard Drives | | Box Contents | 1 piece | | Brand | SanDisk Professional | | Brand Name | SanDisk Professional | | Cache Memory Installed Size | 2 | | Color | SSD | | Compatible Devices | Desktop | | Connectivity technology | Thunderbolt , USB | | Customer Package Type | FFP | | Customer Reviews | 4.1 out of 5 stars 657 Reviews | | Data Transfer Rate | 2700 Megabytes Per Second | | Digital Storage Capacity | 2000 GB | | Digital storage capacity | 2000 GB | | Enclosure Material | Information Not Available | | Form Factor | 2.5-inch | | Hard Disk Description | Solid State Drive | | Hard Disk Form Factor | 2.5 Inches | | Hard Disk Interface | Thunderbolt | | Hard disk form factor | 2.5 Inches | | Hard disk interface | Thunderbolt | | Hard-Drive Size | 2 TB | | Hardware Connectivity | Thunderbolt | | Installation Type | External Hard Drive | | Item Dimensions L x W x Thickness | 11.1L x 5.8W x 1.2Th centimetres | | Item Weight | 0.27 Pounds | | Manufacturer | SANDISK | | Manufacturer Part Number | SDPS31H-002T-GBCND | | Media Speed | 2.7 GB/s | | Model Name | PRO-G40 | | Model Number | SDPS31H-002T-GBCND | | Network Connectivity Technology | Thunderbolt, USB | | Number of Items | 1 | | Product Features | Dust Resistant, Shock Resistant, Water Resistant | | Product Warranty | 2 year manufacturer | | Read Speed | 2700 Megabytes Per Second | | Special feature | Dust Resistant, Shock Resistant, Water Resistant | | Specific Uses For Product | Business, Multimedia | | UPC | 619659195977 | | Unit Count | 1.0 count | ## Product Details - **Brand:** SanDisk Professional - **Colour:** SSD - **Compatible devices:** Desktop - **Connectivity technology:** Thunderbolt, USB - **Digital storage capacity:** 2000 GB - **Hard disk description:** Solid State Drive - **Hard disk form factor:** 2.5 Inches - **Hard disk interface:** Thunderbolt 3 - **Installation type:** External Hard Drive - **Special feature:** Dust Resistant, Shock Resistant, Water Resistant ## Images ![2TB PRO-G40 SSD external Drive, Portable SSD, up to 2700 MB/s, Solid State Drive, Thunderbolt 3 (40Gbps), USB-C (10Gbps), Ultra-rugged IP68 rating for dust and water resistance - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/713UKhxDZSL.jpg) ![2TB PRO-G40 SSD external Drive, Portable SSD, up to 2700 MB/s, Solid State Drive, Thunderbolt 3 (40Gbps), USB-C (10Gbps), Ultra-rugged IP68 rating for dust and water resistance - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/8166AOetb+L.jpg) ![2TB PRO-G40 SSD external Drive, Portable SSD, up to 2700 MB/s, Solid State Drive, Thunderbolt 3 (40Gbps), USB-C (10Gbps), Ultra-rugged IP68 rating for dust and water resistance - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81NlqKV14xL.jpg) ![2TB PRO-G40 SSD external Drive, Portable SSD, up to 2700 MB/s, Solid State Drive, Thunderbolt 3 (40Gbps), USB-C (10Gbps), Ultra-rugged IP68 rating for dust and water resistance - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91KkMXrOzVL.jpg) ![2TB PRO-G40 SSD external Drive, Portable SSD, up to 2700 MB/s, Solid State Drive, Thunderbolt 3 (40Gbps), USB-C (10Gbps), Ultra-rugged IP68 rating for dust and water resistance - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81eqSM14AIL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Size** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: What is the significance of 40gbps if the drive can only transfer at 2700mb/s? isn't only around 7% of 40gbps?** A: Drive transfer is 2700 MB/s (mega bytes/s), since 1 byte=8 bits so 2700 x 8= 21600 mb/s, which is more than 50% of 40 Gb/s Thunderbolt **Q: Will it work with the new iPhone 15 Pro Max for recording video direct?** A: Unclear. I’ve ordered an iPhone Pro Max but cannot even find information about whether or not it will work at speed with Thunderbolt 4 cable. Apple only says that it is “compatible” while it mentions specifically other devices like MacBooks that would benefit with top transfer speeds up to 40GBps. **Q: imac 2017 model 10.13.6 - nearly to of memory - will this work on my older iMac? Connects ok to the ports (no idea what they're called)...thanks!** A: It’s my understanding that Apple’s Thunderbolt ports are backward compatible. So it should work. But you won’t get the full speed this drive is capable of delivering. This is a Thunderbolt 3 design. **Q: Need to back up 500gb of 2012 MacBook Pro; would this be a good choice to do so? (No lightning/usbc port)** A: It wouldn’t, no. I had no luck using it with a USB-C to USB-A cable, not adapter. I tried several brands/kinds, but none worked. If I recall, TB 1 and 2 don’t offer power output, so you’re out of luck there as well. Though, if you want to spend an unreasonable amount of money on this, plugging the drive into a TB3 or 4 dock and connecting that dock to the laptop using a TB3 ->TB2 adapter may work. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works seamlessly wit Mac *by O***L on 20 February 2024* It was made for the Mac!
