UNITS Franchising Group Sets Sights on Global Expansion for 2025-2026
CHARLESTON, S.C., July 17, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- UNITS Franchising Group Inc., the parent company of UNITS Moving and Portable Storage, proudly announces ambitious plans for global franchise expansion into France, the United Kingdom, Germany, the United Arab Emirates, Canada, and Australia over the next 18 months.

SanDisk 2TB Portable SSD at Its Lowest Ever, Amazon's Practically Paying You to Take It on Prime Day's Last Day
Running out of space when you are halfway through a 4K video project or a long vacation photo dump can stop momentum cold. Cloud uploads take ages on slow connections and juggling multiple thumb drives is a recipe for lost files. A fast external solid state drive fixes those headaches in one move, and the SanDisk 2TB Extreme Portable SSD gives you speed, toughness, and generous capacity inside a case that slips into a pocket. Head over to Amazon to get the SanDisk 2TB Extreme Portable SSD for just $120, down from its usual price of $210. That's a discount of $90 and 43% off for Prime Day. See at Amazon Performance comes first. With USB 3.2 Gen 2 support, this drive can move data at up to 1,050 megabytes per second, which means a 20 gigabyte batch of RAW photos transfers in well under half a minute. That speed keeps editing software running smoothly and lets gamers copy large installs without staring at a loading bar. The included USB C to C and C to A cables work right out of the box with recent laptops, desktops, and even many tablets or phones, so you are rarely hunting for an adapter. Durability is next on the checklist, and SanDisk built the Extreme to travel. The silicone coated aluminum shell carries an IP55 rating that shrugs off rain, dusty trails, and accidental splashes at the pool. It can handle drops of up to two meters onto a concrete floor, according to the manufacturer, thanks to internal shock absorbers and the lack of moving parts. A sturdy carabiner loop lets you clip the drive to a backpack strap, which is handy when every inch of carry on space matters. Security is available at the flip of a switch. SanDisk's hardware based 256 bit AES encryption protects client files and personal documents behind a password, adding peace of mind if the drive ever leaves your sight. Their free SecureAccess software makes setup easy; choose a password, drag sensitive folders inside the protected vault, and everything else on the drive stays accessible to collaborators. Two terabytes is roomy enough for entire seasons of video footage or a complete console game library, yet the drive weighs about the same as a couple of AA batteries. That small size turns it into a flexible backup option for photographers in the field, students shuttling projects between lab computers, or anyone who likes to keep entertainment on hand during long flights. The SanDisk 2TB Extreme Portable SSD is still available for $120 at Amazon, a strong savings over its regular $210 list price. If you need some extra space at the ready, it'd be a good idea to have it at its lowest price during Prime Day. See at Amazon
