This SanDisk Extreme Portable SSD — on sale for $240, or $220 off at Amazon, today only — comes with 2TB of storage built-in. With blazing-fast transfer speeds, you'll get what you need quickly.
"The perfect high speed portable drive! This external is absolutely perfect for my needs. I bought the 2TB version and it has become my 'everything' drive. I love having all of this space in such a portable form factor," raved a satisfied Amazon shopper. "It's actually smaller than I expected it to be and it slips perfectly in my pocket and disappears because it's so lightweight..."
