This desktop drive boasts a 7200 RPM rotation speed and a 256MB cache, optimized for both Mac and PC compatibility. It connects via a Thunderbolt interface and includes an indication light feature.

Our take
As a professional, I appreciate the 12TB capacity of the SanDisk G-DRIVE PRO for managing large project files. The 7200 RPM drive and 256MB cache are good indicators of solid performance for an HDD, offering decent speed for sequential tasks. The Thunderbolt interface is excellent for fast data transfers with compatible machines, making it a strong contender for video editing or large data backups. It's a desktop unit, so while it has great capacity and respectable speed for an HDD, it's not meant for portability. The Space Grey finish is a nice aesthetic touch too.
