SanDisk SecureAccessĪs mentioned, the included installer will get SecureAccess running on your machine. We hoped the setup process would be similar to the Seagate Portable drive we tested, which allows you to install extra software while registering the drive for warrant purposes, as you can see in our Seagate Portable review. Collectively, the created files and folders take less than 10MB, but it’s still annoying. There’s a folder with two files dedicated to your settings and another with multiple files pertaining to your SecureAccess vault. It also creates a few folders on the drive. The application allows you to set a password and walks you through how to add files to the drive. If you want SecureAccess, which is what the included app installs, you’ll need to find it elsewhere.
The drive works on macOS, but there isn’t an application dedicated to it.
Interestingly, the application is only for Windows. SanDisk Extreme Portable SetupĪfter plugging in and opening the Extreme Portable on your computer, you’ll find an application and a folder. Though it wouldn’t look out of place considering how small it is, there are probably better solutions for transporting your drive. There’s a soft-rubber feel that wraps around it and a notch at the top right, presumably for attaching it to a keychain. If you’re taking the Extreme Portable on the go and you don’t have a USB-C port on your laptop, you’re forced to use a clucky adapter that just begs you to break it. When we plugged it into the back of a desktop machine, it couldn’t even reach the top of the case. In the box, you get a drive, a USB-C cable and a USB-C to USB-A adapter. The tiny disk is smaller and slimmer than a G-Technology G-Drive (read our G-Technology G-Drive review), but not as small as the Samsung T5.
