    extremely fast, and portable, because of it's small size - and because it is solid state, it is a safer storage device for media files

    This solid state drive worked right away and has been working since. The very small size (smaller than a deck of cards) makes it VERY portable. Nice color too!

    Awesome SSD! Of note, we own the 500gb and 1tb and with the majority of SSDs, the larger SSD is much faster, talking noticeably faster!

    Many computers now a days only really have 128 GB or 256 GB. If you plan on working with any type of content (video or picture), it is highly recommended that you get an external storage solution. The Samsung T5 is like the sports cars of external storage. If you pair it with any newer computers that have USB 3.0 or USB 3.1 support, moving pictures, or videos will be a breeze. If you use a standard Hard Drive, it will take so much longer, up to 5 times longer. When you constantly do work with media, the extra money you spend on a drive like this pays itself off with the time you save moving content, and makes your workflow a lot snappier. The SSD has a USB-C port on it, and the box comes with a USB-C to USB-C cable, as well as a USB-C to USB-A cable so you will be ready to go wether your computer has the newer USB-C adapter or not.
