1) Crucial X6 1TB is SATA based, Sandisk is NVMe resulting in higher speed (~500MB/s vs ~900MB/s)
2) Crucial X6 has 3 year warranty vs 5 years on the Sandisk
3) Crucial does not offer any weather/water/drop protection whereas Sandisk does
4) Crucial X6 does not come with USB-A adaptor whereas Sandisk does include one.
5) I believe Costco bumps up warranty by 1 additional year (maybe more for Costco Visa card holders)
6) Sandisk offers hardware encryption which Crucial X6 lacks
So Sandisk does offer some advantages over Crucial X6 in 1TB capacity. Whether it's worth 20$ depends on individual need

Is this a new directive from SD to its soldiers to increase click-thrus?
Seems like a fair price for a SATA drive, plus enclosure
