About this deal

Ruggedized design with a forged aluminum body to protect the SSD core and dissipate heat. Plus, a durable silicon rubber coating seeks to deliver higher impact resistance with its IP55 rating for water and dust resistance. 1 La transmisión de los datos y archivos es a una velocidad increíble, se puede trabajar con el conectado al ordenador que no lo ralentiza para nada, como digo, parece que es un disco duro integrado en el ordenador. Copy ~95GB file from the SanDisk to iPad: Pro - 10m 50s, Standard 10m 39s (Here there is no difference, probably because the write to iPad speed is the determining factor, not the read from Sandisk)

Note that, the USB port in connected device should also be modern one to support high transfer speeds.There’s no getting around this: the KC2500 isn’t cheap. It is, however, outstandingly fast, in both sequential and non-sequential workloads; its CrystalDiskMark scores of 3,445MB/sec in the read test and 2,795MB/sec in the write test are just one showcase of its power. This saves about 10% of space for my large collection of MP3 music files which average 1 to 5 MB is size. For video files that are 1 to 5 GB it does not matter. For large number of word documents, TXT or HTML files that average less than 128K, the space savings can be 90%.

En cuanto a su tamaño es muy pequeño y compacto en comparación a otros discos duros que he comprado, parece mentira con la gran capacidad que tiene! SanDisk’s Extreme v2 is a bit bigger than the original, measuring 101 x 52 x 9 mm and weighing in at under 63 grams. With a carabiner loop integrated and a durable silicone coating, the Extreme v2 features a functional, portable, and enduring design for those on the move in tough conditions. But unlike the Extreme Pro, the Extreme v2’s case and internal structure is made of plastic rather than rigid aluminum. This makes for a small and compact design that is also pretty light, but a little less resistant to twists and bending. In performance tests, however, the BX500 acquitted itself very well. It blasted through CrystalDiskMark’s standard sequential read and write tests at a very decent 562MB/sec and 525MB/sec respectively, giving the Samsung 860 Evo a run for its money. It struggled more in our small-file tests, with read and write speeds dropping to 257MB/sec and 301MB/sec respectively, but this is still a drive that will give your PC that unmistakable SSD snap at a great price. However, while speed is important, it’s not the only consideration. We also look at the price of each drive, its TBW rating, and any bonus software or accessories that come with it. For external drives we also consider the physical design, particularly the portability and toughness, before arriving at our recommendations.Nonetheless, the 870 QVO could be the first step towards a purely solid-state future. It’s the first-ever 8TB SATA SSD on the consumer market (and joins an exceedingly small pool of 4TB models), employing QLC memory instead of the 860 Evo’s TLC to increase density and thus storage space. When traveling, it is difficult to protect your stuffs free from sudden falls and hit other things. So it is very risky with mechanical hard disks. I have bought both the SanDisk 500GB Extreme (550 MB/s) and the SanDisk 500GB Extreme PRO (1050 MB/s) to use them primarily as external drives for my iPad Pro 12.9” 3rd Gen.

There are some caveats. QLC is slower than TLC, so the 870 QVO can lag behind the rest of Samsung’s typically blazing-fast SSD catalogue, and the larger models are serious investments. Then again, measured on a cost-per-gigabyte basis, their immense size does result in a certain kind of value: the 8TB model, for instance, works out at a mere 5p per gigabyte. SATA SSDs aren’t as speedy as M.2 models, but they’ll still make your computer feel far snappier and smoother than any mechanical disk – and they’re compatible with a wider range of laptops, desktop motherboards and storage appliances.Get fast NVMe™ solid state performance featuring 1050MB/s 2 read and 1000MB/s 2 write speeds in a portable, high-capacity drive that’s perfect for creating amazing content or capturing incredible footage. Le doy 4 estrellas porque a pesar de que la caja estaba en buen estado, el disco no venía en un plástico envuelto cosa que por un lado me alegraría por el medio ambiente pero me hace sospechar por otro lado que es un disco duro devuelto y seguramente reacondicionado ya que como podéis ver en las fotos las letras están desgastadas y eso no es normal siendo nuevo. Both drives are rugged and will probably withstand hot and humid environments, like Costa Rica where I live part of the year. The Pro will run cooler under the same circumstances. To be clear, what impresses most about the A2000’s speeds is not how high it can peak: we recorded a sequential read speed of 2,281MB/sec and a sequential write speed of 2,183MB/sec, both of which surpass Kingston’s own official figures but aren’t leading many tables more generally. Remember, however, that sequential speeds are rarely sustained in normal usage, and a lot of seemingly ultra-fast SSDs can slow to a crawl when faced with more trying transfers involving hundreds of non-sequentially stored files. The A2000 is special because, despite its lower price and apparently lower specs, it can maintain good speeds even in these much tougher conditions. Get extra peace of mind with a 5-year limited warranty 3 and a durable silicon shell that offers a premium feel and added protection to the drive’s exterior.
