    Very nice drive. Came with encryption software to protect the data in case the drive is lost or stolen. Large amount of storage for all those digital photos that you need to keep. Speed to read and write is very nice as well. I use it to keep copies of all of my photos and electronic copies of important documents outside my home.

    I bought this to specifically transfer lots of family videos that had been converted into digital files for storage on something other than the desktop computer. It works great - the transfer onto this external drive was so much faster than I thought it would be. I am able to move things on and off the drive for editing and I feel confident that they are safe.

    I bought it for the purpose of cloning my Mac's hard drive in preparation of performing a clean install of Big Sur. It has native USB 3 (Thunderbolt) connectivity which helps make this drive much faster than a SATA and one can tell immediately. It made quick work of cloning aprx 400 GB. Worth it. Naturally, I'll have to wait and see regarding durability.

    No regrets buying this Samsung T5 1TB External Type C Portable Solid State Drive. Excellent choice for me it sure has the capacity I needed for storing my video collection and pictures. It is very convenient and is compatible with my Mac Book. I will definitely recommend this to my friends and most probably buy it again or buy a higher capacity.
