Abstract: Evidence about how far we've come with flash storage is most likely lurking at the back of a drawer. It's a flash USB key that holds 512MB or less, and most people have a few of those gathering dust somewhere. The other end of that spectrum is the SanDisk...

The performance and price stand out, but we also found value in the software package that enables 128bit encryption.
I'm not sold on the advanced software features coming as a paid upgrade. If the software has the capability, then we feel SanDisk should include it as a valueadd to make this series more attractive than the products coming from Samsung.
Overall, we like the SanDisk Extreme 500 Portable SSD and would buy one if needed. These products are not for everyone. Advanced thumb drives have increased in capacity and are smaller, but fail to deliver the same high transfer rates of data. The gap i...
The SanDisk Extreme 500 matches its advertised read speed and writes, but as stated it will be slower with small write files, however small file I/O operations in terms of IOPS for a USB 3.0 unit overall remains normal to good. Pricing wise you are looki...

The Extreme 500 provides enhanced durability and SSD performance for photographers, videographers, and storage enthusiasts who wish to depart from the typical HDD configuration for their portable storage device...

None
The SanDisk Extreme 500 Portable SSD is a small and compact way to store your files and its performance make it a highly recommended product...
Swift performance at a reasonable price, Durable-feeling plastic shell, USB 3.0 cable is removable and replaceable
Capacity tops out at 480GB, Textured-plastic top can collect dust and dirt, Newer Extreme 510 model offers better shock- and water-resistance, Competing Samsung T1 costs less
SanDisk's slim external SSD isn't the fastest we've tested, but it's not far off, and it's reasonably priced. Just know that if you need more than 480GB of speedy storage, you'll have to look elsewhere. Read More…...

Form Factor, Storage Capacity, Quick uncompressed file transfer
Compressed file transfer speed
Its compact, its light, it has a lot of space and it's easy to carry. It comes with a 3-year warranty.It does have a good performance with compress file types though I wish Kingston HyperX DataTraveller had enough space to do a 98.3GB assorted videos fold...
