Score: 68/100
SanDisk Creator Pro
Score: 85/100Rankings
SanDisk Creator Pro 1TB SSD provides up to 2,000 MB/s performance, IP65 resistance, and 3 m drop protection, targeting creative professionals. Its higher cost and lack of hardware encryption may deter some users. Perfect for creators needing fast, rugged storage with the added benefit of Adobe Creative Cloud software.
The Netac ZX20 2TB Extreme Portable NVMe SSD provides a feather-light, pocket-sized form factor with up to 2000 MB/s reads when paired with a USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 host. Its limitations include reliance on rare host ports for peak speeds, a plastic enclosure without IP protection, and a higher price point. It is best for mobile professionals who value ultra-light weight and high capacity over ruggedness.

Products in the top-left offer the best value (high score, low price).
Professional reviewers commend the Netac ZX20 for its feather-light weight, compact size, and useful cable bundle, noting it delivers solid performance on compatible USB 3.2 Gen 2 ports. However, they caution that the advertised top speeds require a rare Gen 2x2 host, the plastic enclosure feels flimsy and lacks any IP protection, and the price is higher than comparable models with similar capacity.
Everyday users appreciate the drive's portability, lightweight feel, and the convenience of the included cables, but they frequently express disappointment when the real-world speeds fall short of the advertised 2000 MB/s and criticize the cheap-feeling plastic housing and the absence of an IP rating.
