Solid construction. Very elegant on the desktop. Drives are also stackable. It plugs into the Thunderbolt connection (cable supplied) of my Apple Mac Studio and was up and running within a few minutes. Drive is pre-formatted. The drive is powered by an external power plug (also supplied). When applying power to my Mac and SanDisk the drive does not spin up but waits for the Mac to power up. Both take about the same time to initialise and be ready for use. Perfect for storing my large photo library for use with Adobe Lightroom. The drive isn’t silent as it’s a mechanical hard drive but it isn’t irritating to use. It sits under my monitor next to the Mac Studio. There is enough audible feedback to show the drive is reading/writing. It is a quiet drive compared to others I have used, and it’s certainly a lot quieter than my NAS drive. Drive temperature is slightly warm when it’s been used for a few hours. Perfectly acceptable. Windows or Apple Mac Operating Systems power down the drive by default to save energy. This can be disabled in the OS settings. It’s easy to find the step by step instructions on the SanDisk support web page. Review: Unreliable for critical data - I purchased a 6TB SanDisk Professional drive in preparation for my existing G Drive Pro HDD getting full. Luckily, I hadn't used it for anything critical and when tried to copy some files, the drive failed. Apple Disk Utility could not repair it so my only option was to reformat the drive. It was my understanding that these are pro business drives and have a very low failure rate but reading of other's experiences, I'm concerned the quality might be questionable. ## Features - High-Capacity and Fast Backups Back up and access more of your HD photos, videos, and other high-value content.

This is an enterprise class drive and is more suitable for computers. **Q: Will it work with older usb2 and w10 and w7 ?** A: Definitely works well with USB2 with correct lead, albeit to that speed of course. Regarding rest of question, I use a Mac. But presumably you just re format the drive to work with Windows OS. Check first though! **Q: do they have cooling fans in and therefore make a noise all the time?** A: Hello, It's pretty much silent running, there is a slight noise when it's doing it's stuff, but nothing that you'd notice ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent High Capacity Hard Drive *by M***B on 14 January 2025* The SanDisk Professional 8TB hard drive is very well made.

Luckily, I hadn't used it for anything critical and when tried to copy some files, the drive failed. Apple Disk Utility could not repair it so my only option was to reformat the drive.

I'm a wedding filmmaker and photographer and this hard drive is fast enough for me to work straight off of. I don't really understand the noise complaints. It makes a bit of noise but nothing major. I think we've gotten so focussed on everything being silent. I certainly wouldn't say it's a distraction at all. Just a normal hard drive noise. ## Frequently Bought Together - SanDisk Professional G-Drive 22TB Enterprise Class Desktop external Hard Drive, HDD up to 280 MB/s, USB-C (5Gbps), USB-C (USB 3.2 Gen 2), 7200 RPM Ultrastar, fast backup, Premium, Industrial enclosure - SanDisk Extreme Portable SSD 4TB (up to 1050 MB/s read, 1,000MB/s write, USB-C, NVMe Solid State Performance, IP65 rated for dust and water resistance, Updated Firmware) Black --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.hr/products/471245134-sandisk-professional-g-drive-22tb-enterprise-class-desktop-hard-drive](https://www.desertcart.hr/products/471245134-sandisk-professional-g-drive-22tb-enterprise-class-desktop-hard-drive) --- *Product available on Desertcart Croatia* *Store origin: HR* *Last updated: 2026-04-22*
