QuestionIs this compatible with my new 2020 MacBook Pro I bought from BestBuy last December 2021? Also how long do these SSD last? Also how many 3-4 minute songs can I load with 1TB of space? I will be using this basically for djing and not bog down my Mac.

This question was asked about the related product: Samsung - T7 Shield 1TB External USB 3.2 Gen 2 Rugged SSD IP65 Water Resistant - Blue
- Answer This SSD does work on MacOS devices, just make sure you format the drive properly before use. As far as storing songs, you should be able to store roughly a million 3-4 minute long MP3s if that's all you used the drive for. If you were storing flac audio files (which are about 5x bigger) you could expect to store about 200,000 songs max. The drive isn't exactly 1000GB; you lose up to a few GB depending on how you format.
