    Samsung has made a great little ssd here! This thing is smaaaall. I use it as extra storage for my Sony PS5 and it is fast enough to run games directly from it. Great bargain if you need reliability, speed and big storage amounts.

    Easy to install, takes up very little space. Being a SSD no noise or moving parts to wear out. So convenient to manually back up all files, pictures and music. Just a quick click drag and done! Leaving it plugged in so easy to update.

    I wanted to expand my storage on my PS5 and this brand was a more affordable option. It was, also, on sale. Easy to set up, small & portable, stores quite a lot of PS4 & PS5 games with just 1TB, runs PS4 games quick and smoothly.

    Amazing External Drive

    It was super quick to set up for both me and a friend who isn't the most tech-savvy. I am using one of these to run my iOS on a 27" iMac (the computer's internal drive is an HDD, which was making it incredibly slow to start), and while it did take a little time to convert it to the correct format for that, it has been working like a dream ever since.

    Simply Awesome, Amazing, Fast, being used as an extension for PS5 storage about the size of a credit card length wise. Thickness of a pack of gum. Theoretically would be easy to carry if needed. Holds a ton of games (PS4) games load right up.

    My old external hard drive crashed, and I needed a replacement for my music library. This SSD ended up being even better! My MacBook recognized it immediately, and it is more compact than my old drive.

    This External SSD drive does exactly what it should. It’s fast, reliable and portable. Transferring files from a computer is crazy fast along with none of the normal spinning hard drive problems where I’d you bump the drive while in use you lose all of your data. The only negative is the size - I wish it could be more compact.

    So this SSD is very small and super quick. has 1 TB of storage space, which depending on what you are doing with it can be filled quick. The larger sized were a little pricey but maybe soon the prices will come down.

    Excellent performance in a small form factor. I use this for gaming on my MacBook Pro through a hub connected via thunderbolt. It’s virtually as fast as the internal drive and yet small enough to be portable if I need it to be.

    It’s amazing how small these external drives have gotten. My old one was about eight years old and was working fine, but I was getting nervous so got a new one to make sure I have no issues in the near term. Works great and as intended.

    Bought for my PS5 since the PS5's storage is low. I have a lot of PS4 games and PS5 games that I had to keep deleting so when I finally got this storage I was relieved that I wouldn't have to keep reinstalling games. And since I heard the T7 was a really fast External drive I knew I had to get it. And it is! It's very quick at downloading games and loading them as well. I thought maybe I'd be waiting a bit longer since it's playing off a External SSD but nope! It's almost as fast as the PS5 SSD when loading my PS4 games up. Also with the recent software update on PS5 I can now store my PS5 games on here to which is fantastic! I've already used over half way of the storage on this thing and still have a lot more room for extra PS4 games.

    This external drive is very nice and cool. It's conveniently small but with great capacity. I can plug it directly to my Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra and store backups in a matter of seconds or a couple of minutes, depending on how long ago was the last one. It also works well my Samsung Laptop and Apple Macbook.
