    I've been using Samsung SSDs for years with the hardware encryption and they've all been solid. This one is no different and performs well in terms of performance and reliability. I've been using it for about 2 months now with no issues.

    It's the size of a credit card, only a bit thicker. It fits in my purse without adding any weight... I can take my whole desktop with me, without taking the desktop. Just plug it in and copy files from the hard drive on the desktop to this external drive. Highly recommend.

    I have a couple of these Samsung SSDs and I really like them. Great speeds and slick form factor make these a laptop's best friend for extra storage on the go. These are also less picky about which cable I use compared to other external drives I have.

    I love this SSD. I was not sure with which to go with because I heard horror stories with other brands. This one was recommended by so many people and when I saw that Best Buy had a small discount at it and I could go pick it up within 10 minutes of my house I immediately purchased it. Best Buy also did a great job with my pickup, took less than 3 minutes.

    This is a very solid drive. It is light and yet doesn't feel like it will break at the slightest touch. Samsung says that it can write up to 1,000 MB/sec, but even when transferring from a built in SSD to this SSD over the provided USB-C to USB-C cable I could never get it to go over 700. Don't get me wrong, that is still a really impressive number and faster than any other drive that I've used, so I'd still recommend it, but I think Samsung might be overselling it a bit. The hardware encryption on this is definitely a strong selling point, I think it is the strongest. It takes almost less than a minute to set up and (while I admit I didn't try too hard) I wasn't able to find a way to hack it. If you are looking for something that is small, fast, and secure, this will definitely meet your needs. Oh, and a side note, Samsung boasts about the thermal management on this preventing the drive from overheating, what they don't tell you is that they are achieving that by having this thing radiate heat like crazy, so make sure that you use it in an area where that heat can dissipate.
