The short version
Sandisk's V3 Extreme PRO portable SSD is rated at up to 4,000 MB/s read and 3,800 MB/s write, with a stated 3,100 MB/s average sustained write. It adds IP65 protection, a 3-meter drop rating, 256-bit AES password protection and a five-year warranty. It suits video editors handling large files. Sandisk's figures are internal test results and no independent test of this version was read here; it also needs a USB4 host to approach those speeds.

Common questions
Does this drive need a USB4 port?
To approach its rated 4,000 MB/s read speed, yes. Best Buy lists it as a USB4 drive, and Sandisk's speed figures depend on a compatible host; slower USB ports will limit transfers.
Is the data encrypted?
Sandisk lists 256-bit AES encryption with password protection for this drive, so data can be locked if the drive is lost in the field.
