I love this little T7 portable drive. Especially now that prices have gone down a good bit with time/newer models. It is FAST. No doubt about that.
A caveat: I've had the T1, T5, and now the T7. Each one has had problems with it's own software and my Mac computers. The older versions never did get proper updates to make the encryption/passwords work well and then Samsung suggested I had to upgrade the drive to get things to work. Since I just got the new M1 Mac, the newest version won't work with Silicone chips either, including in Intel with Rosetta 2.
My solution? I just formatted it all the way as an APFS drive and use it as a normal non-encrypted external storage drive. For me, that's fine. I didn't buy it for the software and encryption, I bought it as a fast drive to backup my mac with Time Machine and files. For that reason, I highly recommend it.

It's a nice little, compact storage space for all of my stuff. I haven't have any issues with overheating or shutting off or anything which is good. It seems to work well and does what I need it to do.

I have used several of the Samsun external SSD's in my business and am very happy with every one of them. The T7 is definitely a winner with faster speeds and instant mount time when connected. Very light weight and extremely portable.

Great drive, got it on sale and used rewards to make it affordable. Very fast and easy to transport. Size of a credit card just thicker. Cables are really nice. Will purchase again if it goes on sale.

I bought this to be my extra drive for my PS5 and it works great. I have no complaints only that I wish i bought the 2TB instead. Definitely worth it regardless of the reason you buy it. It works great, reliable and fast.

Super small and efficient. Works great with the PS5. This holds all the PS4 games, and the PS5 games go on the internal storage. Crazy again that Sony did not give a minimum of 2-3TB with this system.

Fast storage, simple as that. Haven't had any problems. Works like a charm with every device I have plugged it into. I didn't realize how fast USB 3.2 has gotten. No need for thunderbolt for most stuff. This is great.

This small and lightweight drive comes with cables for both USB-A and USB-C. Data transfer rates are pretty decent. I like that the drive comes with built-in encryption, which in my opinion is better than Bitlocker. When you plug in the drive for the first time on any computer, the only files readable are the drive are the encryption installers. Run the installer for the first-time setup, and then whenever you plug in the drive, it asks for your password before your files are visible. Once connected, the drive updates with the amount of available space.

Very happy with this product. Purchased it for extra storage for my PS5 due to the fact you don’t have much space and it is working as intended. It’s actually lightning fast. Load times are non existent and it hold soooo much stuff
