Pros:
• Solid construction! Really well built.
• Super fast! In some tests, it has outperformed MacBook Pro's internal SSD
• Light weight and very small
• Easy to set up and use
• Very responsive to utilities and use
Cons
• None . . . . I love this drive!
Though to be fair, SSD's are still overpriced. They have not changed much in the last few years and that's not right..... None the less, this is a fantastic drive. I've had it for roughly 3 months and it's been flawless. Unlike my Wester Digitals which seem to have a 50% fail rate in the first year. Really, I've replaced so many under warranty I'm not sure how the company stays in business.

Also, here's a snug fitting case (not all small HD cases will fit this drive, it's a tiny bit longer than the popular Sandisk model): https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B07GWNV8L5
