    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

    Compact & Light, Good Transfer Rate, Encryption

    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.

    I needed a fast, lightweight external drive to use to backup my laptop PC's internal SSD. This drive is ideal. Data transfer is quick and the drive itself is small and light. It's exactly what I was looking for.

    Got this for my new PS5. Very nice external hard drive. The size is great to hide behind the unit. Extremely fast. I had originally bought the 500 GB but traded it in for the 1 TB since the new PlayStation games are very huge.

    Samsung T7 SSD

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    Samsung's Portable SSD T7 Touch scored our PCMag Editors' Choice award and Best of the Year honors as the top external solid-state drive for 2020, largely on the strength of its fingerprint-based security system. The Samsung Portable SSD T7 (starts at $109.99 for 500GB; $369.99 for the 2TB version tested) saves you money by skipping the fingerprint reader and is available in a different set of colors. It's a tiny, handy storage device with solid performance for its class, and while it lacks the convenience of the T7 Touch's biometric security, its strong password-protected encryption should be more than adequate to protect your data.

    The built quality on this External SSD is truly outstanding. I find it to be easy to use and love the ability for it to encrypt data. Additionally, the transfer speeds are incredible. It is faster to transfer large files to this SSD compared to other External SSD's. Moreover, I like the inclusion of the USB Type-C to Type-C and USB Type-C to Type-A cable to allow for the connection of a wide range of devices, making it compatible for older devices, as well as, new ones.

    Samsung SSDs are very reliable. I have had several for 500GB -2TB both T5 and T7. They stay pretty cool, are fast. You will never want to use a HDD after using an SSD.

    The speed is amazing and it's so small. It's about the size of a credit card and about 1/4" thick. Using a c cable 4gig movies transfer in about 30sec instead of 15 min.
