    My PS4 only has 500gb, which COD uses every bit of. I had an old external HD that I had fortnite installed on, but I would load into games late and have lots of issues with the graphics of the game not loading fast enough. Getting this SSD fixed that, I load into games much faster and have no issues with lag.

    Works as it should. This was an upgrade after a very old one. I like how small and sleek it is, I was expecting it to be large and it’s not. Lots of storage and cost effective for the amount of storage.

    **Purchased on 11/30/2020 Black Friday sale, after eyeing it since release early 2020** Edit: Make SURE that both your computer and the USB-C cable you are using is capable of the USB3.2Gen2 speeds that this offers!! Alright guys listen up, Im a wannabe film maker/photographer alright, and on top of that I am a full time student studying biology and nursing during this pandemic. Check this all out For school, being online, I record my entire screen with audio for every lecture (because I cant focus for the life of me and I require reference all the time, also my memory is crap lol) so that's about 3-4 lectures a day (with each recording being 3-5GB) and I go between keeping them on my MacBook's hard drive and off loading them onto this SSD. So I have a Fuji X-T3 and a MacBook Pro 13in(Intel i5, early 2020, 16GB RAM, 1TB storage) for all my creative desires... For photography, I shoot in full uncompressed RAW with TONS of "spraying and praying" (so obviously that's GIGABYTES of data, on average about 60-80GB per shoot) and for video, I shot a bunch of weddings in full 4K, 60fps 10-bit 4:2:0 at 200mbps H.265/HEVC (between of 240-320GB of footage per wedding) GUYS. LISTEN- Not ONLY can this thing transfer 600GB of data in under 12 minutes... Playback of ANY video (my lectures or footage from my camera) is STUTTER FREE!!!! But WAIT!! THERES MORE!! I use Final Cut Pro X for my film making needs... The T7 can handle NON-PROXY EDITING!!!! This translates into NOT having to spend time waiting for optimized media AND saving space on both my MacBook and this SSD!! YOU CAN EDIT 4K H.265 CODEC WITH NO LAG!!! If you cannot already tell, I am very excited and IMPRESSED at both the performance and value of this thing. I cannot believe I was thinking about returning this!! I also have the 500GB T5, and lemme tell ya, the T7 is almost TWICE as fast in sequential processes. Basically, BUY THIS!! Hopefully this helps out anyone on the fence

    The Best Buy employees had it ready as soon as I got there from placing the order online so kudos to them for sure. Great hard drive, very fast, easy to work off of. I got it without the gel because it saved a little bit of money but if you're traveling a lot with your HDs maybe invest in the protective gel.

    My son needed this portable SSD from Samsung for school, and it has been perfect for his needs. The small size makes it easy for transport back and forth to class, and the 1TB makes it possible for him to store all of his projects safely! He actually got one for each of his classes because he was so pleased.
