SanDisk Extreme Pro Portable SSD:

Fast, tough and reasonably priced

The IP55 rating means it can fend off water and dust. BY JON L. JACOBI

Well, that didn’t take long. A

few short weeks after reviewing

the Samsung T7 (go.pcworld.

com/t7sd), SanDisk’s Extreme

Portable Pro SSD (1TB) showed up at our door

and easily surpassed its rival for the top-

performing USB 3.1 Gen 2 drive. SanDisk’s

drive doesn’t offer the T7’s handy and fun

fingerprint security, but it’s about the same

price and offers software-based password

protection if security is a concern.

DESIGN AND FEATURES

The Extreme Pro Portable SSD is a bit larger

than the previous iteration (go.pcworld.com/

pitr), measuring approximately 0.4 x 2.25 x
