I have never used an SSD, but bought a SanDisk Extreme Portable SSD thinking my grandkids could back up their photos from their iPhones. Is there a beginner’s manual anywhere to get me started?
Hi @MtnMary
We request you to install the files application and backup the data from iPhone to SanDisk SSD portable.
Please refer below mentioned link to install the files application:
You can check SanDisk’s website for user manuals and FAQs, watch online tutorials on platforms like YouTube or CNET, and contact SanDisk support for personalized help if needed. The basic steps include connecting the SSD to the computer, formatting it if it’s new, and then transferring the photos from the iPhones to the SSD.
No, there isn’t. What I learned is you have to use the Extreme with a computer and back up the iphone to it. It didn’t make sense to me, but I accepted I’d bought the wrong item. I was able to sell it to someone locally and am considering which USB drive I want to get for them.
It’s no different than using a hard drive or floppy disk, basically. Connect, transfer, disconnect.
