Score: 69/100Rankings
The SanDisk 1TB Extreme Portable SSD delivers fast 1050 MB/s read performance in a lightweight, IP65-rated package. Its single capacity option and speeds below newer 2 TB models limit its appeal for power users. Best suited for creators who need rugged, fast, and versatile portable storage.
The Lexar Professional Go 1TB Portable SSD with Hub offers 1050 MB/s read, a built-in 4-port USB-C hub, and IP65 durability in a lightweight module. The lack of hardware encryption, high power draw, and potential thermal throttling are trade-offs for its versatile connectivity. Suited for on-the-go users needing a compact hub-enabled storage solution.
