The Extreme Pro is priced at Rs. 8,490 for 128GB and Rs. 13,990 for 256GB, while the Extreme Go is offered at Rs. 3,990 for 64GB and Rs. 5,990 for 128GB - both will be available on Amazon India and select retail outlets. The SanDisk Ultra 256GB microSD card is priced at Rs. 18,990 and will be available from April 1 at retail outlets. The products were first unveiled at CES 2017.
The USB drives were launched boasting of SSD speeds. The SanDisk Extreme Go USB 3.1 flash drive comes in 64GB and 128GB storage capacities with up to 200MBps read speed and 150MBps write speeds, while the Extreme Pro USB 3.1 Solid State flash drive is being offered in 128GB and 256GB options with read speeds up to 420MBps and write speeds of up to 380MBps.

At the event, the company demoed the transfer speed of the new Extreme Pro 3.1, uploading a nearly 4GB file on to the drive under 15 seconds. Meanwhile, the SanDisk Extreme Go drive promises to transfer the same amount in under a minute.
