SanDisk Extreme Portable SSD (V3) 500GB External SSD with USB-C, Portable, Hardware Encryption, Password Protection, Shock Resistant, Water Resistant

The SanDisk Extreme Portable SSD (V3) – 500GB is designed for fast data transfers and mobile backups. With 500 GB of capacity, it is suitable for 4K video projects and high-resolution photography. The drive uses a USB 3.2 Gen 2 interface, supporting sequential read and write speeds of up to 2,000 MB/s. These transfer rates are significantly faster than those of standard hard drives. The USB-C connection is compatible with most current laptops and mobile workstations, making it suitable for field work.

The IP65-rated chassis provides protection against dust and water splashes, and the drive is engineered to survive drops of up to 3 metres. Integrated 256-bit AES hardware encryption allows for password-protected access to stored data. Weighing 46.9 grams, the device is light enough to carry daily without adding bulk to a gear bag. As it contains no moving parts, the risk of mechanical failure is reduced. The drive is bus-powered, drawing all necessary power directly from the host connection.
