If your pc storage drive has a read speed of 250 mb/s then that's the speed the files will transfer even though the USB drive will write faster it can't get the data off of the pc storage drive fast enough. Hope this helps a little bit. **Q: Has the 2TB Pro 1050mb drive password protection?** A: Dear Cath Harrison, My name is Shira from SanDisk Customer Care. I would like to inform you that the drive will have password 3rd party application on it pre-installed. You may contact us via our support email: english_support@sandisk.com and provide us with the date of this post. Best regards, Shira SanDisk Global Customer Care **Q: With apples camera (usb cable) can i use this drive with just a charging cable? as currently have to use a powered usb hub with a drive.** A: The Sandisk Drive draws it's power and communication (Files) through a single USB-C Cable. It depends whether the Apple camera's connection can output enough power to run the Drive. Do you use the Charging cable to transfer Data as well as charge the Camera ? If it's just for charging i'd think it's not going to work. I personally would send an Email to Sandisk & Apple to enquire if it's possible **Q: Will this work for the Dashcam in my Tesla?** A: I use it on a 2016 Mac book pro,,,, it works well, if you back to this ssd through time machine it will auto format the drive to Mac format the first time you use it. ## Frequently Bought Together - SanDisk 4TB Extreme Portable SSD - Up to 1050MB/s, USB-C, USB 3.2 Gen 2, IP65 Water and Dust Resistance, Updated Firmware - External Solid State Drive - SDSSDE61-4T00-G25 - Yinke Hard Case for SanDisk Extreme Pro/SanDisk Extreme Portable External SSD 500GB 1TB 2TB, Travel Case Protective Cover Storage Bag --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/302904219-sandisk-2tb-extreme-portable-ssd-up-to-1050mb-s-read](https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/302904219-sandisk-2tb-extreme-portable-ssd-up-to-1050mb-s-read) --- *Product available on Desertcart South Africa* *Store origin: ZA* *Last updated: 2026-08-13*
