Great SSD!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This portable SSD from Samsung is extremely useful! I have a MacBook Pro and I’m using this SSD as a Windows 10 OS boot drive with no issues whatsoever. It’s fast and reliable and so far my only regret is not buying the 1TB option.

Excellent quality drive
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have purchased many Samsung SSDs, both external and internal, over many years now, and have never been disappointed. I think I bought this one for my Tesla, to record camera events. It works perfectly in this application. I use others as expansion drives to hold another OS like Linux, and as backup drives. I've never had one fail. Note: I've never used the software that comes with them, or the built-in encryption--I just use them as basic drives, and format them as needed by whatever OS I use, whether Mac, Windows, or Linux. Pros: * very attractive * easy to use * comes with both an A and C cable Cons: * honestly none I can think of

It’s quick
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought a bottom of the barrel laptop and this hard drive. I put all the files games and movies all on this. It allows the laptop to not slow down at all. I have had trouble with files corrupting but probably unrelated.

Great littl storage device
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I had previously purchased 16GB flash drives only to find that the last two 5 packs were terrible. So, I decided to try something new. So far, this is working great. I currently rate it a 5 star.

Good little drive
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Works exactly as expected, no complaints. SSD is more for pro users. If you're just looking for extra storage for everyday files, you don't need this kind of speed. Unless money is not a concern, of course

Very Portable and Blazing FAST
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great external Solid State Drive for storing audio and video conference feeds, so I can review them after my meetings. I actually bought 2 of these drives (500GB and 1TB) and I'm very happy with both of them.

Fast drive
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This has been a good external ssd. The price is a little high but it performs well through usb 3.0 so far. Throughput is around 3-400 Mbps, I.O. Is decent although small files will slow this drive down. I assume sub 3.1 would be marginally better. Fits my needs well. Currently have this attached to my Xbox One X, tested against an 860 evo with startech adapter, they were even.
