QuestionMy son has an ASUS gaming PC that came with 32G of memory. He’s looking for more, but would this be what I need? I’d be looking at the 2TB option.
Asked 2 years ago by Jason.

QuestionI have a media player that does not recognize the drive at all. Does it need to be formatted differently from how it comes out of the box? I have other non-ssd drives that work fine. MP3s, VOBs, AVIs, MP4s, all play on these "hard drives".

QuestionCan the thermal material melt and leak from the edges if the drive overheats? I have seen on Youtube of the original T7 leaking along the edges of the drive when the drive overheated under heavy read/write load but I don't have the original T7.
Asked 3 years ago by Anonymous.
This question was asked about the related product: Samsung - T7 Shield 2TB External USB 3.2 Gen 2 Rugged SSD IP65 Water Resistant - Black
- Answer It hasn't happened yet and we use these for offloading after filming 4K footage and also create a backup using the original so that's a pretty heavy use for 3-4 hours oftentimes. That being said, we don't like the thermal material because we can't label it (nothing sticks to this weird material). So we have to use paint pens.
