Customer Ratings & Reviews

Got this to make backs and store. It was a great price for the size, speed and portability.

The product is fine. My issue was the Best uh on My. Zion does not have enough cashiers . Took 20 minutes to check out and even then the cashiers were burned out. You need to pay them more and hire more staff.

This compact drive is fast and very reliable, I have also previously owned and still used a T5. They are great products!

Fast and reliable ssd drive. I use for audio files.

This has been one of the best purchases I have made from Best Buy! Small and powerful! Holds all of the stuff that bogs down the main PC but is just as easy to access.

Very good for his price. Fast, small and doing his job properly

Great secondary storage for those who didn't get enough in their laptop and can't add more because it's soldered. I have a 1TB drive in my Macbook Pro and I was running out of space because of how large my photo library has become since I got a full frame camera and have been storing raws and using Lightroom (DMGs are stupid big.) I have also have several Steam games stored on it and they run just fine. I've benchmarked the drive and it consistently gives me ~850MB/s reads and writes excluding file system overhead, so it's likely saturating the 10Gbps USB 3.1 bus on my laptop. I was able to copy my ~380GB photo library in under 10 minutes. All in all, it's a pretty good deal if you get it while it's on sale like I did for $140. With that said, always remember to keep a backup. I just rolled it into my Time Machine (Apple,) backup to my external 8TB rotational media drive for redundancy because devices can and do fail.

Purchased this to use as a dedicated external drive for Mac mini. The reformatting for dedicated Mac use (i.e., no swapping back and forth between Mac and PC) is a bit complicated for a newbie with the different formatting options to select from. But once formatted correctly it is extremely fast and a great option for 2TB of external storage compared to upgrading the Mac's internal storage.

Nice, small, fast, and got it on sale for $99 (Black Friday 2023). May never see that price again, but if I do, I'm buying four more! Right now, at $169, it's too expensive!

samsung and best buy do it again.. a great purchase and smooth transaction . couldnt ask for anything better

Small, light, powerful, just what I needed for extra storage!

Love this ssd. Quick and easy to use for my games!

Best ssd ever so portable and has alot of storage and never fails on me.

It just worked on my iMac - I used Disk Utility to format it and then Migration Assistant to move the contents of my failing system disk to it

This is an easy to use backup drive. No problems transeferrring data to drive or to laptop or phone. I highly rec ommend this product.

This storage fits in the palm of my hand. It might be small, but it has so much storage. I have backup two computer files and photos.

This little hard drive is a powerful yet easy drive to use. It quiet, and fast. I use this to backup my date for my MacBook and have never had a problem. I would not only recommend this but I should be a requirement if you have important data to back up.

I was able to restore my late 2012 iMac (bought in 2013) using this beauty. The Fusion Drive (mechanical section) had failed. I loaded iOS to a flash drive using shift-command-R on boot up. Split the Fusion drive. Finally restored my 1.1 TB system to this 2TB external drive using Time Machine (from a 5TB external HD). Now the iMac runs faster and better than new from this external SSD over the speedy USB 3 port.

It's small, it's fast, it stores data. Nice of Samsung to include two different USB cables.

Needed an external drive in order to transfer files and documents regularly from multiple physical locations. It's built quite nicely and it is so slim, I can place it inside one of my backpack pockets. Transfer speeds are much faster than when I was dragging around a bulky plastic hard drive.
