All this speed is aimed squarely at gamers and media professionals. PC gaming is continuing to climb despite the release of eighth generation consoles. The main popularity is in multiplayer online games that don’t transfer as well to consoles. The speed offered by the SanDisk Extreme PRO SSD allows faster boot-up, game loading times, and gets rid of stutters and skips allowing uninterrupted, realistic gaming. Media professionals know that time is money and graphic-intense programs can have long load times. The SanDisk Extreme PRO SSD will speed up load times with its impressive sequential read/write speeds. All of the above comes with the low energy usage and a 10-year warranty.
The SanDisk Extreme PRO SSD also comes with SanDisk SSD Dashboard application for Windows. The Dashboard application provides drive performance monitoring, firmware updates, manual or scheduled TRIM, secure erase, drive health, longevity, and temperature indicators. The SanDisk SSD Dashboard is available for download now.
