Fast storage can completely change the way you work, and I’m a huge fan of the 1TB SanDisk Extreme Pro Portable SSD, which is now $179 (was $210) at Amazon this Prime Day.
That’s a 15% saving on one of the most popular high-performance external drives on the market, and even boasts an IP65 rating for durability. For UK readers, it’s got a slightly smaller discount, with the Extreme Pro now £202 (was £210).
Thanks to its NVMe-based architecture and USB 3.2 Gen 2×2 connectivity, the drive is rated for read and write speeds of up to 2,000MB/s. In practical terms, that means significantly faster file transfers than traditional portable hard drives and many entry-level SSDs.

Whether you’re moving large photo libraries, backing up projects, editing video, or carrying a game library between devices, the Extreme Pro will minimize waiting around.
The drive features a forged aluminum chassis that doubles as a heatsink to help keep up performance during sustained transfers.
It’s rated for up to three meters of drop protection and carries an IP65 rating for water and dust resistance, making it a solid choice for photographers, content creators and professionals who regularly work away from a desk.
Built-in 256-bit AES hardware encryption and password protection help keep sensitive files secure, while the SanDisk Memory Zone app can assist with file management and freeing up storage space on connected devices.
With more than 16,000 customer ratings and an average score of 4.5 stars on Amazon, the Extreme Pro has a rightly deserved strong reputation among users who need reliable, high-speed portable storage.
Sure, $178.49 isn’t exactly a budget purchase, but Prime Day’s discount makes it a more attractive choice for anyone seeking a rugged, fast external SSD that will remain useful for years to come.
