    Great Portable Backup Drive

    Samsung SSDs have functioned well for me in the past thus when my daughter needed a backup drive for her new Apple Laptop, I bought this. This unit comes with the USB-C connector. Samsung provides two connectivity cables: USB-C - USB-C and USB-C - USB-A The unit works well and the only puzzle/disappointment is that I can't a sustained write speed of the toughted: 1000MB/sec. Actual sustained Write speed is under 100MB.

    I upgraded from 500 gb to this 1 tgb external ssd. It is small and light weight. I like the "metalic" solid feel, not the "plastic" feel for other brands. I use it as a reliable mobile storage device between home and office computer. However, at one time, some of the files that I saved was "corrupted". Scanning with Samsung's Magician found few (n= 3) "bad sectors" [red dots]. This software can't "repair" the bad sectors. I guess I can still use it so long as the files don't land on these "bad sectors".
