SanDisk professional pro G40 SSD Review & Testing

SanDisk professional pro G40 SSD Review & Testing
Here is the SanDisk professional pro G40 SSD Review & Testing video. I believe this is the best external SSD for editors being able to work on both Windows and Mac OS. It also supports both Thunderbolt 3 & USB Type C. This external SSD is by far my favorite SSD I own now. being the it is Fast, Rugged, water and dust resistant, and has a 4000 LBS crush resistant, I am very pleased with this SSD.

Probably the best video on this drive. As a Mac user I didn’t find the APFS formatting as annoying though 🤣

[@alexthorntonwx]

Thank you so much for addressing the formatting issue. You have been the only video I could find on the fix for this problem. Saved me a lot of frustration!

[@PlanetKryos]

It's great to hear that!

[@CareyHolzman]

Been looking forward to this review!

[@Drum2]

Amazon has two versions available. Mac formatted and a windows formatted :)

[@DavidParke84]

mine came with an APFS FORMATTED sticker on it. My guess is everyone on Windows machines were having this same issue and they've added that sticker.

[@wubbsy]

The drive is more towards their professional video line. And the pro video industry mostly uses Macs. That’s why most of their G-Drive line is preformated for MacOS.

[@PlanetKryos]

Just annoying. Should be able to choose for Win/Mac then

[@danjelyemiliovargasalmanza9479]

Very good content bro!

[@Jordan_Belfor]

Hey! What SLC cash (NAND) it has ? When the speed is getting down ? After how much gas written?

[@jeffchen7290]

Thank you so much for this video

[@richardpalmanteer9798]

Thanks for the review of the drive impressive

[@djgodden]

I seem to be having a very common problem with the G40 and WIN11. After about 10 minutes the drive simply disconnects and freezes the computer. Unplugging it resolves the problem and the computer unfreezes.

[@PlanetKryos]

Common? Have not see this myself or heard of it. I have two of them and ise them on Win 11 and sometimes I have them plugged in for couple hours. I will always watch out for that.

[@kinocchio]

It doesn’t work with iPhone 15 pro. I returned it. I wanted a fast drive I could use with iPhone iPad and iMac. I’m getting the Samsung T9.

[@JohnDeUlloa]

Are these G40s included in the 3-4 Class action lawsuits Western Digital is facing?

[@PlanetKryos]

I don't think so, no

[@0Owlman0]

do you how to encrypt ?

[@Capt-Cran]

I just returned the G40 ... new Mac Studio M2 Max ... the unit would not even mount consistently ... maybe just a bad device ... but not willing to risk my data ... very disappointed ...

[@PlanetKryos]

Yeah that is odd. I have 2 of them now. These have been very reliable for me in the past 2 months. Are you plugging it in to different ports all the time. It only works with Thunderbolt and USB 3.2 gen 2.

[@mortont1210]

Thanks for the video. Planet Kryos 💯 01/14/2024 0341
