SABRENT Rocket XTRM Plus 2TB Thunderbolt 3 Portable SSD - High-Speed External Storage, Rugged Aluminum, USB-C Compatible, 2700MB/s, Bus-Powered, Plug & Play (SB-XTMP-2TB)

Quick and timely same-day delivery. Fancy packed in an aluminum box. It is a small thing, the total weight with cable 158g, easy to take with. I bought it to be a TimeMachine drive for my newest 14” MacBook Pro M1plus. Connected to Thunderbolt 4, it took 34 minutes for the first full 1TB backup, significantly better than my 2 years older USB3 WD HDD which took 6 hrs on the same computer. It is getting very very hot during constant 30 min work, so be careful. This is surely influencing the performance, since the transfer rate decreases with the data package size and device heat. The forthcoming backups for about 1GB were fixed in less than a second, so I think it can bring the sticker speed of 2000MB/sec or better. Unfortunately, I didn't check the performance up front on the “empty” SSD. For someone who needs to have a small, quick, and easy to carry Time Machine drive or quick transfer of smaller data packages - it is a good choice. However, it is still very expensive. And, the color is not the MacBook space gray, but this may not be technically relevant. First impressions: handy, funny, and quick. If you can effort it - buy it. PS: one star down is for price only (almost the same as in the US, but slightly cheaper than the UK).

Le packaging est soigné. Le disque ne déçoit pas. Je fais mes sauvegardes time Machine de mon Mac Book M4 Pro sur ce support et la rapidité est bluffante. Les câbles fournis sont de qualité.

Does what it should. but after a short time it had a rattle inside. I had to open it up. turns out the screw that held the board to the body was loose. after is tightened it there where no more problems. I'm playing my Steam games directly from it.

Been running perfectly for ages now. Rock solid piece of kit for you Mac.

I use it on a MacMini i7 Intel 6 core processors, connected to a Thunderbolt port. I'm impressed by the speed, but the enclosure becomes so hot that I can't even touch it!!! So I'm worried about how long it can handle such high working temperature and how long it will last. I'm afraid soldering inside will start melting... Otherwise it works as expected. UPDATE: it becomes very hot during a very large file transfer like a complete backup to another device, and then it cools off after a while. So it should not be a problem I guess. I change my evaluation to 5*.

He conseguido revivir un Mac que tenía disco interno convencional. Los he instalado con el sistema operativo MacOs Monterey y el otro disco con Time Machine (1TB cada uno) y ahora el Mac vuela. Va super rápido con la conexión Thunderbolt. Una maravilla. Estoy muy satisfecho de la compra. La única pega es que el precio es un poco elevado, pero vale la pena.
