It was super quick to set up for both me and a friend who isn't the most tech-savvy. I am using one of these to run my iOS on a 27" iMac (the computer's internal drive is an HDD, which was making it incredibly slow to start), and while it did take a little time to convert it to the correct format for that, it has been working like a dream ever since.

Samsung does it right... fast, reliable, good aesthetics and compact. It's easy to travel with and sturdy even though it is not the "rugged" model. All things being good or great I went for a 5-start rating because it comes with both USB-C to C short cable and a second cable USB-C to USB-A. For me the inclusion of both cables made this a perfect package at a reasonable price.
Best value and performance out there at this price

Excellent performance in a small form factor. I use this for gaming on my MacBook Pro through a hub connected via thunderbolt. It’s virtually as fast as the internal drive and yet small enough to be portable if I need it to be.

I’ve been using this Samsung T7 2TB portable SSD for several months now, and it’s been absolutely excellent. Setup was super simple just plug in and it works right away on both my laptop and desktop. The transfer speeds are impressively fast, and large photo and video files move in seconds instead of minutes, which has been a huge time-saver for my files.

I purchased this drive to be able to bring various files along with me when not at home, This is good if you have limited disk capacity and no network connectivity to any cloud services.
I formatted the unit in APFS to work with a 16" M1 Pro MacBook. I added several containers (think partitions) to store data in easy to retrieve locations.
Data transfer times are very fast between this device and the MacBook. Keep in mind the speed of your computer's main disk device and the interface on the machine you will be using this with.
I purchased the unit on sale, which made it a very good buy.
If 2TB is too large, the units are offered in 1TB and 500GB. Units with slower transfer times are available as well.

This is invaluable to have. Cant tell you how many times i have carted this around with me to get files back in forth to where i need them. 2 TB works great, can be used as a Time Machine backup, but why GO Raid.
As a Portable drive this is fantastic. 2 TB is the right amount of storage to get anything you could possible image from point a to point b.. I am using this as a Sample Storage for Music studio (AND YES, samples can take up a TB or two easy) but also music score info.. This cuts down on having to carry so much clutter with me.. Simply fits in the pocket and off i go.. When i use it for my IT stuff i can keep just about all the code i need for reference along with ANY MSDN docs and installs. Perfect companion for on the go.

I love the small compact size, fast transfer rate using the USB 3.2 Gen 2. The Encryption seems to be solid. Now I am able to re-organize all my files and put all the files I want to make sure I have a back up on this nice portable drive.

Love everything about it. Large capacity for an ssd drive, speed, reliability, looks. You get the quality you pay for here. I have a few with different colors for easy identification.
This review is from Samsung - T7 2TB External USB 3.2 Gen 2 Portable SSD with Hardware Encryption - Metallic Red

I’m a wedding/social media marketing videographer and I always need external SSD’s to back up all of my footage and run my projects on. I always go with these guys, absolutely love them.
The one thing I would keep in mind is you need to make sure they are formatted correctly for the type of computer you are using them for, (Mac/Windows).
But that process is also very simple.
