SanDisk SDSSDE70-1T00-G25 Extreme Portable SSD 1TB USB-C

OverviewSDSSDE70-1T00-G25

The SanDisk Extreme Portable SSD, part number SDSSDE70-1T00-G25, is a 1TB external solid-state drive designed for portable data storage, file transfers, and backup workflows. Its compact design combines USB-C connectivity with high-speed data access, making it suitable for transferring large files, storing creative projects, and maintaining copies of important documents while working across compatible devices.

The drive provides up to 2000 MB/s sequential read performance, subject to the capabilities of the connected device, interface, and operating conditions.

Technical Information

This portable SSD uses a USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 interface with a 20 Gbps interface bandwidth. Its maximum advertised sequential read speed is up to 2000 MB/s. Actual performance depends on the host system and connection; a device with a slower USB interface may limit transfer speeds.

The enclosure is rated IP65 for dust and water resistance and provides drop protection from heights of up to 3 metres under the manufacturer's test conditions. The drive also supports password protection using 256-bit AES hardware encryption through compatible software and operating systems.

Compatibility and Connectivity

The drive is designed for compatible USB Type-C devices and supports Windows, macOS, Android, and iPadOS environments within the manufacturer's stated compatibility requirements. Supported Apple device workflows include access through the Files app on compatible iOS versions.

• Windows: Windows 10 and later.
• macOS: macOS 12 and later, subject to the relevant software and feature requirements.
• Android: Android 10 and later on compatible devices.
• iPadOS: iPadOS 15 and later on compatible devices.
• iPhone: File access through the Files app on supported iOS 17 and later devices.

For the advertised maximum transfer speed, the host device and connection must support the drive's USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 interface. USB Type-C describes the connector format and does not, by itself, guarantee a particular transfer speed. Device compatibility, available ports, file systems, and software requirements should be checked before deployment.

Key Features

• Field work: Use portable storage in environments where the drive's specified dust, water, and drop protection is beneficial.

DC Supplies Product Note

Check the USB interface of the intended host before purchasing if maximum transfer performance is important. The advertised 2000 MB/s read speed requires a compatible connection and suitable system performance; a USB-C port with a lower supported data rate will restrict throughput. The IP65 rating does not make the drive waterproof or suitable for immersion, and the enclosure should be clean and dry before use after exposure to moisture.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. What is the storage capacity of the SDSSDE70-1T00-G25?

This model provides 1TB of storage. The usable capacity reported by the operating system will be lower than the nominal capacity because of formatting and measurement conventions.

2. Can this SSD achieve transfer speeds of 2000 MB/s?

The drive supports sequential read speeds of up to 2000 MB/s. Achieving this performance depends on the host device, USB interface, system configuration, workload, and operating conditions. Devices with slower USB interfaces will not reach the maximum advertised speed.

3. Is the drive compatible with Windows and Mac computers?

Yes. The manufacturer lists compatibility with Windows 10 and later and macOS 12 and later, subject to the relevant software and feature requirements. Confirm the operating system and available USB connection before use.

4. Does the drive provide protection against water and accidental drops?

The enclosure has an IP65 rating for dust and water resistance and is designed for drops of up to 3 metres under specified test conditions. These ratings do not mean the drive is waterproof or indestructible. Avoid immersion and follow the manufacturer's handling guidance.

5. Does the SSD support password protection?

Yes. It supports password protection using 256-bit AES hardware encryption through compatible software. Software and operating-system requirements apply, and password-protection functionality is not supported on every connected device.

6. Can I connect the SSD to a smartphone or tablet?

The drive supports compatible Android devices and iPads with suitable USB connectivity and operating-system support. Verify that the device supports external storage and can supply the required power. File access and encryption features may vary by device and operating system.
