Fast storage can completely change the way you work, and I’m a huge fan of the SanDisk Extreme Pro Portable 1TB, currently $210 (was $264) at Best Buy.
That’s a hefty saving on premium portable storage that’s built for everyday use and frequent travel. And it’s one of the best rugged portable SSDs we’ve ever used.
Whether you’re backing up photos, editing video, or moving giant files between devices, this compact external USB-C NVMe SSD gets the job done in a hurry with read and write speeds of up to 2000MB/sec.

Keeping important files protected goes beyond raw performance because the drive includes password protection and 128-bit AES hardware encryption. Updated firmware and extensive testing also add extra confidence when storing valuable data, like company documents and family photos.
In our rave review of the non Pro version, we called it “hands-down one of the best external SSDs (rugged or not) on the market, and its 1TB version is particularly attractive compared to the other SKUs. Some cracking performance numbers and a very low price make this product hard to fault.”
Its compact size makes it easy to slip into a pocket or laptop bag without taking up much space. The silicone shell provides drop protection, while the IP55 water and dust resistance helps it cope with splashes, rain, and dusty environments.
The USB-C connection works with a wide range of modern PCs and Macs, giving it plenty of flexibility across different setups. Buyers should note that it isn’t compatible with the iPhone 15 or iPhone 15 Pro despite sharing the same connector.
Having 1TB of storage means there’s plenty of room for huge photo collections, videos, documents, and project files. Solid-state storage also keeps operation cool and quiet because there are no moving parts inside the drive.
If you’ve been looking for reliable high-speed storage that’s easy to carry anywhere, this is one of the best deals I’ve found.
