    Bought one for my PC and one for my Mac. This drive is great and compact. Has a fair amount of space for backup files and work in progress. I'm very happy with this purchase- will no longer be buying spinner drives for external back ups.

    This works fantastic! I can edit directly off the drive with no problems. Scrubbing through footage during video edit is butter smooth. My one small gripe is the USB C connection easily slips out on the 2016+ MacBook pros when on your lap. If it’s on a stationary desk it’s not an issue. Minor annoyance but I have had quite a few accidental disconnects on the laptop when on my lap

    I bought this drive to replace a 6-week old non-SSD drive that turned out to be a lemon. Yes, you'll pay a bit more for an SSD, but the performance and reliability are worth the cost, and Samsung's SSDs set the industry standard.

    PS4 External

    This external SSD is very fast. When I play open world games with my friends, I'm usually one of the players loading in first (mostly likely with other SSD or PS4 Pro users). I primarily use it to play Destiny on a regular PS4, and the load times are significantly faster. Super happy with the performance.
