    This drive is the best drive I’ve ever owned. The speed is ridiculously fast and it’s so light and compact i forget sometimes i have it. I keep in a hard drive case so I won’t misplace it. It is durable and you will be surprised when you save something onto it. For my use (Music Production) it is perfect, I run sessions off of it with ease and saving is faster than any drive I’ve ever owned. Thank You Best Buy and Samsung!
