THE PRACTICAL PERSPECTIVE
Overall review.
Check the device at both ends
A USB-C plug can fit while the device’s file manager still handles storage differently. Test a small transfer on your exact phone and computer before depending on the drive away from home. Check that a thick phone case leaves enough room for the plug.
Measure the transfer that matters to you
SanDisk’s speed claim refers to reads. If you plan to copy footage onto the drive, test how long writing a representative folder takes with your devices.
Keep a second copy
A compact drive is handy for moving a selection of files. Keep a second copy of anything hard to replace, especially if you carry the drive on a keyring.
