    I use these drives in conjunction with a large insta360 Pro camera, for capturing 6 4K video files per take. My 360 degree documentary on the fire in Paradise, California "Aftermath | Camp Fire 2018" was completely captured in the field using a T5.

    load times for Destiny 2 was ridiculous, at times my friends and I spent more times loading in then playing. we all bought the samsung T5 500gb solid state drive. the load times were improved greatly, now when playing match making we load in way ahead of the blue berries/ random players.
