    So far so good with this storage device. I use it to make backups of my MacBook using Time Machine. It works great for this purpose. I have not had any issues with it yet. I like that it is small and easy to use. I would say that the price of this SSD is pretty good. Not too expensive. Overall, I would recommend it.

    Has been tossed around in my backpack quite a bit and now I don't have to worry as much as my old spinning external drive I used to carry around. Transfer speeds are amazing! Well worth it and great value!

    Picked this drive up to use as a backup on my Mac Studio. It’s working great & was ready to use right out of the box. No issues after 11 months of daily use.

    Big fan! It integrated well into my iMac and it freed up a bunch of space on my internal hard drive. It's plugged in and running 24/7 and I've had no problems in at least 6 months.

    Well...I purchased a Mac mini last year from best and I knew that the on board 128 gigs of ram would someday come around to bite me so... I read and researched about how I could clone my OS onto an external hard drive especially when the new upgrade made it a necessity! So I pulled it off and couldn't be happier not did it work but I gained up and download speeds in the 800 plus range, it's incredible glad I did it! I had been checking out the samsung externals for quite sometime, this one is awesome!!

    Super small & light. It's a solid product, but it scored much higher on my PC running CrystalDiskMark compared to running the Blackmagic disk speed test on my M1 Mac Mini. Read speed: 1,044 MB/s vs.696 MB/s. Write speed: 942 MB/s vs.743 MB/s. Strangely, it scored higher on the write speed compared to the read speed on my Mac.

    This is a very convenient form factor, it is fast as well. I have several now and they are connected to my Caldigit Element 4 hub . It is connected to my 14" MacBook Pro M1 Max. The Samsung SSDs are nice as I can connect them either to the the 3.2 USB or Thunderbolt 4 ports on the hub.

    This was my first time purchasing an external SSD. I have been very satisfied with the product. Wish I would have bought the 2T version. I keep all my media files on this and have never had an issue running Light room, watching movies, or listening to music while this is plugged into my laptop.

    So far so good. Bought to replace current backup drive. this tiny & silent drive is perfect for my limited desk space. old drive was noisy 10 yo unit and now not a sound, Nice. worth the price for piece of mind backing up email, photos and memories... from both laptop and phone.. have not yet installed the optional encryption software...
