    What kind of In-The-Year-2000-Science-Fiction nonsense is this? 1TB of solid state storage for less than $200? Yes please. If you routinely have to offload large files then stop reading this and buy this drive. Literally saves me 45+ minutes almost every day at work. Plus these are cheap enough that they can be used for handing off files to clients instead of traditional platter drives.

    Always a fan of Sumsung products. This is not my first external drive but it is my first SSD. Its really compact, being used to standard external drives and not the SSD, I was surprised how small it was when I opened it up. I'm using it with my console and it seems really fast. Caught it on sale for a good price.

    This external drive is very very high quality! It's worth the price and if you're ok with dishing out the money, the quality eclipses all the knock off brands from other retailers. It's amazingly fast, efficient, and super durable. Wouldn't recommend dropping it on a hard surface but it has hit the ground a few times and it works great still!

    I was in a video shoot with Blackmagic pocket cinema camera 6K pro model. It can record directly to SSD card via USB C connection. This SSD card serves the purpose perfectly and I didn't have any issue what so ever. Very reliable and fast. Fast to dump the data after the shoot as well. Happy camper...

    Wanted an SSD so I splurged. Works well overall. So, it does do the job as expected. But wish it would have come with backup software to keep track of what was and wasn't backed up. The other models have a program called Magician I think, will see if it works on this model. The cable doesn't connect very solid but no problems so far. Just makes me feel like it could fail. I wanted to back up my old phone data but it does not come with a USB micro. That's a bummer. Then I saw BB offer the lower capacity, 500gig, at a lower price that if I would get two 500 instead of 1T, it would have been cheaper. But because of BB policy of only 15 days to return I was stuck with the 1T at a higher price. Not so sure I will continue buying anymore from BB since every other store offers 30 days to return.

    Congratulations! You have found it. This drive is the best drive and what I suggest and buy for all of my family members. If you're in the market for a fast, reliable drive, do yourself a favor and buy this one. Well that's my suggestion. I guess that's why then I'm leaving this review.
