    Very small and light. durable metal case. It stays cool to the touch. Fast performance with little to no delay when using it. I use it for my local source for my cloud storage and have had no issues in synchronization.

    Extremely Fast - One Minor Issue

    This thing works like greased lightning and it’s small, about the size of 4 credit cards stacked together. Only issue was getting it to eject properly the first time using the Windows 11 “safely eject USB device “. Kept getting an error that it could be ejected because it was still in use. Could never find a reasonable resolution and don’t know if it was the device itself or Windows 11. Other than that, I love it!

    Using it for Sentry mode on Tesla Model 3 for a month now. It gets hot when the car is left in the sun. Nonetheless, it still works, and no issues so far.

    Great sleek, portable, and reliable SDD. I brought this to back up my video footage of a graduation ceremony. The transfer rates are super fast on either USB-C or USB 3 (both cables come with the SSD, which is nice).

    i'm guessing the new T9 series is faster, but this is my 2nd one of the T7 series and, like the first, it is fast, extremely convenient (small/thin/light), has a quality solid steel feel, and comes well packaged with 2 USB cables. Great piece of gear. Came formatted ex-Fat and that is what I needed - transfers seamlessly between Windows PC and Mac and can handle very large files.

    I ran out of storage space on my laptop and didn’t want to spend the extra money to buy another computer with more space since I still love my laptop. This is was the perfect solution. So happy to have this now. Super easy to use and perfect for me. Highly recommended
