When it comes to storage products, Chinese consumers are no strangers to SanDisk. As the world's largest memory card supplier, SanDisk is recognized as a leading brand in the storage industry. In 2016, SanDisk was acquired by Western Digital, and SanDisk operated independently as a subsidiary.
As a data storage carrier, the manufacturing of flash memory particles requires strong technical strength and capital accumulation. SanDisk and Toshiba have joined forces to develop flash memory technology to produce flash memory particles. SanDisk has the world's second-largest market share of flash memory chips, second only to Samsung. As a manufacturer of self-produced flash memory, its SSDs have strong reliability and guaranteed product quality.
SanDisk is now only involved in the field of portable SSDs, and the new Ultra Portable Hard Drive SDSSDE60, with a compact body and keyhole design, highlighting its portable nature. The shockproof performance of the SSD itself is better than that of the HDD, and the new SanDisk product is IP55 dustproof and waterproof and can withstand a 2M drop, making it more durable. The 500GB version is priced at only 899 yuan, which is affordable.
Most of the portable hard drives show that the read and write speeds are based on laboratory data, and the hard drives will be slower when actually used. The measured continuous read speed of the 500 extreme speed mobile hard disk is 415MB/s, which can be consistent with the promotional data. However, compared with the 500MB/s read speed of SamsungT5,500 mobile hard disk is still slightly inferior, it is recommended to buy the 250GB version, only 749 yuan.
The capacity of the 900 mobile hard disk is as high as 1.92TB, and the metal shell is also more stable and low-key, but its price of 5999 yuan is very expensive, which is 600 yuan higher than the same capacity of SamsungT5, and it is not recommended to buy.
It is worth noting that when some e-commerce websites screen SanDisk SSDs, the results will appear in the results of the USB flash drive CZ880 and CZ800, which are officially called "solid-state flash drives". Both products use solid-state drive-level control chips, which do have excellent performance in a USB flash drive. However, compared with real portable SSDs, there is still a significant gap between the two USB flash drives, and consumers need to pay attention to them when buying.
