Love this! It's tiny. Man we have come such a long way in terms of how much space they can cram into small devices. Getting this, always looking for ways to reduce the weight of my travel bags!
I debated between this and the Samsung T5 for my small mobile drive-both got great reviews. Glad to see review with iPad OS. I will use mine with hub mostly so will use USBa most of the time. (I bought the T5 and renamed it on my Mac). Glad to see you'll compare. My other externals are all HHD but for mobile happy to have an SSD.
I have one of these and I use it on my new 12.9 iPad Pro Generation 4 and it works great. I formatted it in the X pro format. I use it between my Apple to PC and it work great.
I’m about to get an iPad Pro to edit videos for my 8yr olds YT channel, Rumble O Death, and was looking at getting the WD wi-fi SSD, will you be doing any testing on this?? Keep up the good work 👍
The USB transfer speed is very slow on your iPad Pro with USB-C 3.1 port. 1.84 GB in 14s = 134 MB/s My OnePlus 7 Pro phone can with 5 GB video file in 16s = 320 MB/s.
yeah, it took about 15 seconds to transfer that movie. I have no idea what you are talking about here, cause it obviously isn't related to the video or the transfer speed depicted in the video.
How did you make it work? My iPad Pro with iPadOS 13.4.1 will not recognize the Sandisk Extreme. A chat with Sandisk support revealed that it is not intended nor certified to work with iPad or iPhone. Is there any trick?
So you informed me on how to connect this SSD drive I already had, but wasn’t using till now. What a great useful discovery. Now I’ve come up with an issue that you might have a solution I can use. I can transfer files back and forth, but what I can’t seem to do is transfer photos on my iPad Pro library onto my extreme SSD. My iPad doesn’t seem to see it as an option for me to use directly from my photo library to my SSD drive. What am I not doing or seeing?
Which filesystem type did you use? ExFat or APFS? Do you know if it is possible to use APFS encrypted? I read some rumors that the 1TB version does not work. Can someone confirm?
Great Vid. Can I use it in my iPad Pro 1. Gen.? Can I connect it with an usb c to lightning cable directly to my iPad Pro 1. Gen.? Or du I need the camera lightning adapter?
Thanks for this video. I'm planing to buy an iPad pro 64gb instead of the air 254gb since now you can use external storage and my university gives me 1tb of onedrive. I want just two apps for taking notes, procreate and some games (fornite, pubg and apple arcade when its out) do you think it's wise to buy the iPad pro 64gb?
TaeSone I mean it depends on how long you want the iPad. I opted for the pro with 256 gb just for a little more future proofing. I’m planning on keeping it for at least 4 more years
I finally got this to work by using a fully powered battery bank for the power source. When the power runs down to 50% it stops working. This is on the first iPad Pro . It would not work with any of my Apple power bricks. Thanks!
I trust this drive over normal hard drives at this time, because you cannot "Eject" a normal hard drive like you do on Mac OS. SSDs and Thumb Drives are fine to yank out, after all operations are done!
interesting video on operating in iPadOS. I have a sixth gen 2018 iPad with Apple pencil, and I am excited for the release of iPadOS this September 2019.
Matt Halpain is it me or the new iPadOS will allow the use of external drives and flash drives? As it now, Everytime I plug me it only gives me the option to transfer photos and videos. I'm looking to have Microsoft documents transferred back and forth
@@xpyder7 yes, based on the new iPadOS coming out this month all types of files (like a computer does) will be allowed to transfer from the external storage and iPad. ruclips.net/video/OJCSAGPhRw4/видео.html
What I really want to know is: can LumaFusion directly access the files from it? I am planning to upgrage to the iPad Pro 512gb from the iPad 6th Gen 32gb just because of LumaFusion. But if this does the trick, I'd go for this instead.
Luma Fusion imports from a drive into a project, so it will see the SSD... When you are done with that project, move it to the SSD to clear space on the iPad.
I just bought the 1TB extreme pro. I downloaded a bunch of files from my MacBook Pro onto it and wanted to see how it worked on my iPad Pro 11” 4th gen running iOS 17.4.1. The drive is not showing up in the Files app. Shouldn’t it appear in the Locations menu along with iCloud drive and On My iPad?
Hey dear I’m seriously confused because in your older video you’re using Apple adopter to connect SanDisk with iPad 6th generation but in this video you’re directly connecting SanDisk with your iPad Pro !!! so in which circumstances do I need to use Apple adopter ? Or can I connect my iPad 8th gen. To my SanDisk SSD with the given type c USB to lightening with adopter ? Or only pro models don’t need adopter ? Please answer.
@@TheAverageTechGuy can I use my iPad charging cable to connect with SanDisk SSD because it has both USB -C and USB-A because I want to buy and carry one more cable if external storage device doesn’t need power. Thank you for your reply bro
Okay, good product (I bought the Dell SSD) but the problem is USB-C - the Dell SSD has a Thunderbolt 3 connection so that a MacBook Pro can take advantage of the SSD ie Edit 4K! But the USB-C is the bottleneck for an iPad. You won’t get to take advantage of the SSD. I guess it’s good for playing movies (ie reading but not WRITING) but we haven’t found the high speed connection for the iPad to make it a Video Editing alternative to a Mac (as Apple intends)
I bought a 2tb version but as it is not formatted to exFAT I am unable to use it. Did you have to format yours prior to use? I have no access to MAC to do the formatting. Expensive mistake. I had wanted to remove all of my photos from Icloud so I have room to back up my iphone and ipad.
Hello. Can you make a new video about this? Many people are considering ipad pro as their main device and file transfer is very important part of the work flow. There’s not much good videos about this one
Would it work if I use one of these for multiple devices like an Ipad, android phone and a PC or do I need to reformat it each time I use a different type of device?
Does this Sandisk work with the regular iPad 6th Generation ?? The iPad I have does not have a port plug in that accepts the cables supplied with this Sandisk ?? Apple is of no help.
I just bought the extreme ssd sandisk and for some reason it doesn’t work with iPhone 11 stating that there isn’t enough power which I’m using the dangle to connect! It works with iPad
Looks like I am late to the party... Just like you, I also have this exact set up with 2TB SanDisk and encountering the same problem: 2020 12.9 iPad Pro will not recognize my SanDisk :( The SanDisk is formatted to Mac OS Extended (Journaled). Have you found a solution and figured out why it isn‘t showing up?
So I’ve picked up one of these Sandisk ssd and I’ve noticed over the past few days that sometimes it can take like 2-5 mins to appear in my files app when using my 2018 11” iPad Pro. Any ideas as to why this happens? Or a way to trouble shoot it?? Thanks for any help!!
Hello, Can i transfer all my Pictures, videos from ipad pro 2020 to SanDisk external hard drive? If so, there is no need of buy 1 tb storage of ipad pro. Am I correct?
Any advice why my some of my photos transfer chop up.. like it’s corrupt? Was i suppose to download a drive? I have a IPad Pro 2020, I was transferring about 20 files from photos to Extreme Sandisk SSD and some just transfer bad.. idk. Anything helps thank you 🙏
Hi, does it work with iOS and camera adapter + power? I have 2 ssd but this one doesn't work for me. Pretty bummer since this is for taking in rough places and the other one isn't.
Dude can you help me with something? I just bought that dual ultra SanDisk stick that everyone is using with its iPad Pro and does not seem to work. Did you do something to be able to read it? It just had two files for the Android app and a PDF but I cannot read it, latest iPadOS version running in an iPad Pro 12.9. Thanks a lot for your information!
My question is how many files at once can you transfer? I tried doing 50gb and it stopped and was removed from my phone at aboit 50 files. Im using standard exfat 1024kb
I just recently purchased the 2018 iPad Pro 11 256g and I have the same SanDisk 500gb Extreme Portable SSD as in the video. I plugged mine directly in the usb-c port as shown in video but there was no recognition of drive as in the video. How do I get the files app to recognize the drive?
I have same iPad version, and same SSD but its 2TB version, However when I plug into my iPad, it does not show up in files app, nor anywhere, thus making it inaccessible or usable on my iPad. Anyone know why??
would this be good for storing movies and books? I'm looking to get the Sandisk Extreme SSD 1TB or Samsung T5 1TB......or maybe I could save a few bucks and buy a 512gb thumb drive with adapter idk man pls help I need some advice!!!
Im purchasing an iPad soon, what are your thoughts on which storage size to get. Besides having a dongle attached, is there anything that internal storage can do that external storage can't?
at the moment exporting files into external drives inst possible. so if youre editing video you need to make sure to have cloud storage or internal storage
I have the exact same drive 500gb but it won’t transfer files of around 9gb plus (not sure if there is a maximum limit) 9gb is a relatively small 4k HDR file and as a pro device this shouldn’t be an issue with the iPad Pro but I find it is. Has anyone else got the same issues?? My iMac 2013 will read and transfer the same file size but iPad OS won’t ? It won’t work on either h.264 or h.265 file types as I’ve tried both types with several large videos. Has anyone else had success and can pass on their solution?

Does it need to be formatted before using it on iPad?
No
what iPad are you using? Will this ssd work with my iPad Pro9.7 (2017)
Which filesystem type did you use? ExFat or APFS?
Do you know if it is possible to use APFS encrypted?

Please do a review on the iPad Pro with the lightning port. Great Video BTW.
It won’t work with lightening unless you have a separate power source..the lightening port isn’t powerful enough..

Hi there. Great video. I can't find these on your Amazon Shop. Looking into buying this and would want you to get the lil' commision.
Could you explain the rationale behind getting the SanDisk Extreme Storage as opposed to a 400 GB SD card which is smaller and cheaper?
It’s 400gb, the sandisk is 500gb. Dumbass
hi
external storage file system requirements?
APFS ?
HFS+ ?
EXFAT ?

Try copying a large file from the iPad internal storage to sandisk extreme... it will last for minutes to finish copying...
Is it still working?

You still ha etje keyboard? I'll buy it
Which OS is this ? Not 12.4.1 I guess

4 Years later, ipad pro 2021 and newest version about the SSD and it doesn't work 😤😤😂
When using mine and trying to copy files from the ssd to the iPad it freezes the Files app. Anyone else having trouble?
I have the exact same drive 500gb but it won’t transfer files of around 9gb plus (not sure if there is a maximum limit)
9gb is a relatively small 4k HDR file and as a pro device this shouldn’t be an issue with the iPad Pro but I find it is. Has anyone else got the same issues?? My iMac 2013 will read and transfer the same file size but iPad OS won’t ? It won’t work on either h.264 or h.265 file types as I’ve tried both types with several large videos.

Thanks for the reply I hope that Apple fix it soon as it will make the iPad Pro a real pro device at last 😉👍
Thanks cost a lot but not working on iPad 5
why it in the air tho
I have a 1T it does not work on my 8 plus
