I believe this product is discontinued; the replacement product is a portable Thunderbolt dock which includes a hard drive but also the rest of the ports that make up the dock, for a cheaper price.
In terms of thickness, the drive is much thicker than some external SSDs. With the silicon case on, it is at least 3x that of a T5 Samsung. For me, that is a trivial matter but some have their tastes of "sleek." I expect I will be buying more from Sabrent given the warrantees on some of their products and the speed.

Fast, reliable, easy to set up and use, the Sabrent Rocket does it all. And the most differential between the 2TB drive I first purchased, and the Sabrent was $200. Think about that. $200 more for twice the space.
My 2TB drive was a La Cie. I've bought a half dozen solid-state drives from LaCie and have always loved them. Given this was a different brand I was a bit hesitant at first. But once I installed it, I had zero hesitation. This is a great drive at a great price. Tough to beat.
For example, when transferring files from my Macbook, real world numbers are 4-8 mins per 20GB. Compare that to file transfers between the SABRENT and my other SSD's 1-2mins per 20GB. So don't just assume that because you have the SABRENT it's going to make everything lightning fast because it will/won't depending on the device its communicating with.
Now with that said I knew this thing was definitely a game changer when I attempted to move 650GB of information from my G-Drive to my WD HD. What I did was I transferred it first to the SABRENT (SSD TO SSD) this took 18 MINUTES. READ THAT AGAIN (18 MINUTES TO MOVE 650GB, WOW). From the SABRENT to the WD HD was 45 MINS. Now compare that to my G-Drive straight to my WD HD the same 650GB was estimated to take 2 and a half hours.
THE SABRENT XTRM IS WORTH EVERY PENNY IT RETAILS FOR, JUST MAKE SURE YOUR OTHER DEVICES ARE UP TO SNUFF TO GET THE BEST/MOST OUT OF IT.
This drive connects quick and easily
Read and write speeds fast
It durable metal with a nice rubber case for extra protection
Has both usb c and usb c to type A cords so you can use it with older computers too.
Con
If you transfer alot of files in a row it can slow down fairly significantly. From my understanding it’s when it reaches the cache limit.
Bought a cheap shell (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07SSRT9RZ/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o07_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1) for my MBP and velcroed this drive and some cable management guides to the shell and now I have an extra TB of storage.
This thing is screaming fast! I copied 100gb in a couple of minutes.
I have most my apps and my dropbox files all on this drive. Everything runs with no problems. Be aware, if you want sync it to Dropbox on Mac, you will need to reformat it to either HFS+ or APFS first, so do this first before putting anything on this drive if you plan on using it with Dropbox.
It does get kind of warm, but not hot enough to melt the adhesive that holds the velcro and not too hot to touch, so I wouldn't worry about the heat.
It weight close to nothing. I will definitely buy more if needed.

UPDATE: it becomes very hot during a very large file transfer like a complete backup to another device, and then it cools off after a while. So it should not be a problem I guess. I change my evaluation to 5*.
Reviewed in Canada on September 22, 2021
but after a short time it had a rattle inside. I had to open it up. turns out the screw that held the board to the body was loose. after is tightened it there where no more problems.
