## Questions & Answers

**Q: Are there some clear LED lights on this when it's on?**
A: No lights at all! I don't miss them though. Agree, with a spinning disk, especially one that has a separate power supply, you need to see if it is  running, because some will carry on spinning even after the host PC has turned off.  But with an SSD, if the PC is on, so is it, and file explorer will tell you if is has gone missing. If the PC is powered off, so is the SSD.

**Q: Is this compatible with both mac and windows at the same time?**
A: Dear Ahmad Shehu,
 
My name is Shira from SanDisk Customer Care.
 
I would like to confirm that the drive should be working fine both on Mac and Windows machines. We did not understand what do you mean exactly on the same time? If you mean simultaneously, this is not a unsupported feature as it has only one output for USB cable.

You may contact us via our support email: english_support@sandisk.com  and provide us with the date of this post.
 

Best regards,

Shira

**Q: Is this compatible with an Xbox one x?**
A: Purchased for my Xbox One and it works great, fast loading times! Moved favourite games onto it no bother and formatted as Xbox storage, use the usb c adapter included for usb 3 and you will be good to go. One X compatibility? Don’t see why not it’s just an external drive, my One installed it quicker than Windows 10 which was a faff (take offline and online in disk management as drivers sometimes don’t install fully). Hope it helps.

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very good product other reviews just got bad SSD
*by K***N on 11 July 2020*

I have had this SSD for nearly a year now and I am seeing loads of reviews of the SSD failing them after a couple of months. Either they broke it or tired to overwork it somehow. I am a uni student and needed this as I would have to transfer files from the uni computer to my laptop. I did find the USB C lead to be a bit short but it makes sense as if you buy velcro straps and place on the laptop lid and put velcro on the SSD then it becomes very convenient as you can have it virtually anywhere without worrying about it moving around, very secure. I used this on both mac and PC with no problems. I also have a lot of games on the SSD and the download speed and upload is stupidly fast, anyone who says its slow either works for NASA or is picky. No joke I transferred a 14GB file in 30 seconds. I was worried that if I used it for a long time it would heat up and yes it does it gets hot but it still works at optimum no problems. But you should not have it on all the time like that, not its main purpose if you are considering getting an actual large storage hard drive that is designed for long period of time use like the WD Ultra with USB c connection. This SSD is mainly for travel and easy convenience. I have not had a failure to this data and just remember this is a WD product so expect a quality product for the price. I have also dropped it a few times and after it worked fine no damage.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Small, light & fast enough but has an annoying cable.
*by L***R on 28 June 2019*

The SSD is much smaller than I expected, especially when comparing to the WD equivalent non-SSD hard drive. It’s about half the width and very light.It’s made from high quality materials and seems very sturdy in construction.I use it for photo editing and transfer speeds have been respectable but nothing special.The only real issue is the fact that the provided USB-C cable is built in a way that makes it proprietary to this hard drive. This means it cannot be used with other devices.Would recommend.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Brilliant SSD from Western Digital
*by J***N on 23 March 2019*

You wouldn’t believe just how small this is. 512gb and it’s smaller than an iPhone SE (5s). Amazing reliability as always from western digital. Build quality did worry me a bit but it’s not too bad, wish the metal bit didn’t dirty up the second you touch it. Other than that, really portable. I use it as my MacBook pro’s Main working SSD (can’t upgrade inner SSD plus it’s good to work off externals and then create back ups especially if your computer is touch and go or your work is important).
