SanDisk external drives and microSD cards are up to 65 percent off - Engadget

You don't necessarily have to use these cards in a Switch, of course, but depending on what you might use them for, it's worth keeping in mind the read and write speeds.

That might not be fast enough for a camera that shoots 8K footage with high frame rates (you might want a card with a higher capacity for that purpose, anyway), but these cards should be absolutely fine for a Nintendo Switch or Steam Deck, which have maximum read speeds of 104MB/s.

It has USB 3.2 Gen 2 support for data transfers via USB-C.

SanDisk says the SSD has up to two-meter drop protection and IP55 water and dust resistance.

There's built-in password protection with 256‐bit AES hardware encryption to protect your data and a carabiner loop to help you physically secure the device.
