Related Questions and Answers
Q: 1. What does the V2 mean in the description headline?
A: It means it is version 2. The updated model can read and write at up to 2000 MB/s Read & Write Speeds which is twice as much as V1 did.
Q: 2. Has anyone used the built in hardware encryption on a Mac? A review on Amazon said it renamed some files.
A: I believe it to work great. I have used it and never experienced such issues.
Q: 3. I have this 2tb Pro SSD with the (theoretical) 2GB/s speed. I've run TechTool's speed test on this drive when plugged into a brand new 14" MacBook Pro. As others have stated, I'm only seeing about 1GB/s (half speed). I've tried the included USB cable, as well as a Thunderbolt 4 cable. I guess there's no way to get full speed from this SSD on even the newest Macs. Any suggestions on how to do it?
A: The SanDisk 2TB Extreme PRO Portable SSD V2, (B&H # SAE812TB), requires a USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 Type-C connection which Apple computers do not support. It is not possible to reach these speeds with a Mac, at best it will reach 1GB/s which is what you are reaching now so the drive is working as it should. If you want to reach higher speeds with an external SSD, you would need to look into a Thunderbolt 3/4 SSD like the SanDisk Professional 2TB PRO-G40 SSD Thunderbolt 3 Portable SSD, (B&H # SAS312TB).
Q: 4. Is this compatible with ipad pro 13" m4? If so, are there any quirks or limitations we should be aware of?
A: The SanDisk 4TB Extreme PRO Portable SSD V2 can be used with the 13" iPad Pro M4; however, the iPad does not support the full USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 Type-C bandwidth this SSD uses, so the maximum read and write speeds achievable with this connection would be about 1000 MB/s.
Q: 5. Does this work with the ipad mini 6 ?
A: Yes, the Sandisk Extreme Pro drive can work with an iPad Mini 6th gen.
Q: 6. Can anyone weigh in on real-world sustained read and write speeds? Anyone experience heat throttling? Considering the Pro V2 or T5 for mobile video editing of ProRes RAW files.
A: The SanDisk 4TB Extreme PRO Portable SSD V2 is Up to 2000 MB/s Read & Write Speeds. The Samsung T5 is Up to 540 MB/s Data Transfer Rate. If you are concerned about speed, the SanDisk 4TB Extreme PRO Portable SSD V2 would be the right one for you.
