It is a product that meets your expectations: easy to carry and high-speed. I have it connected to my gaming laptop, and I have several games installed on it. I play directly from the external disk, and everything works well for me. I recommend it 100%.

This is a great drive to have when you take the drive with you to a location where you want extra storage. like a business meeting. Never know what photos/files you need to get when you are at the meeting.

Great 4tb ssd, Just Needs a Bit of Setup

The SSD works perfectly. For $200, a 4TB external SSD is an absolute steal.
I did encounter a small issue at first, but I quickly figured it out using Samsung Magician, the SSD management software. Unlike a brand-new drive, this one didn’t show up immediately as a storage drive in "My PC" when I connected it. However, Samsung Magician recognized it as a genuine Samsung SSD, showing details like capacity, usage status, and temperature.
After some quick Googling, I discovered that I just needed to create a new volume through the Control Panel. I’m not an expert, but if you encounter the same issue, don’t panic. just google it. Functionally, there’s nothing wrong with it; it just needed a bit of setup because it’s refurbished.
For reference, the drive showed 3.6TB written when I first received it. It seems more like it was formatted once rather than having actual usage. So the lifespan might be not very different from the brand new one.

This is a MUST HAVE. It is a massive amount of space in a tiny device, feels smooth, portable, encryptable with a password (in part or in whole), and FAST. It BLASTS through data transfers in record speed, i almost couldn’t believe it! Round of applause!!!

I’m not very computer literate but this was easy enough to format get going. It greatly improved my storage capacity and gave me more free space on my internal hard drive which improved my systems performance. Was actually considering getting another. Can never have too much free space.

This might just be about the fastest shared access drive that I have experienced when connected directly into our home router. My only possible change would be that I would like to have larger than the 4TB option. Excellent drive regardless though.

Didn’t work. Would read on any of my computers or devices. Don’t bother buying pre owned storage it’s very common I was told.. price was great but doesn’t help if the item doesn’t function sad thing is it’s said that they are “tested” by geek squad…
