    Should of gone with a barracuda but it’s done it’s job for now. High demanding games definitely get booted. Still a good buy for other pc and Mac related stuff.

    Xbox S expansion

    I purchased this so that I could keep the older games on the drive vs. having to delete games from my Xbox Series S all the time. The transfer rates between the drive and Xbox Series S are not SSD fast, but I'd rather transfer from the T7 to the Series S instead of downloading each time (I only have cable internet - gig internet may make this a moot point). This was on sale so it was a better deal than springing for the current Xbox Series 1TB hard drive for more than double the price. Very solid housing for the drive.

    A lot better than the t7 shield if you ask me on this one when you plug the cable into the hard drive it actually snaps on the shield it does not snap it feels loose and jiggly on the shield

    Bought due to my Western Digital Cloud drive failing due to a breach in security. I now own 3 of these samsung t7s. They are great, file save speeds are lightning fast.

    External storage was my ideal way of handling transferred files from my old tower pc without using up so much space on my next Chromebook laptop. This was the only one that matched up to Chromebook.

    Used this to migrate system images from one SSD to another. I was able to back up a 500gb system image and verify it in well under 20 mins. Not sure how fast since i walked away and came back and it was done. My external spinners had been running for hours and kept failing. Nice piece of hardware

    I've been using T9 for a while so this is probably just in comparison to that. The speed on this was incredibly slow and took a while just to do simple tasks.

    • Brand response from Samsung
      Posted .

      Nikonian:

      I’m sorry to hear that your experience with Samsung’s T7 SSD has fallen short of your expectations. Your feedback is very important to us and will be shared with our internal product team.

      The maximum transfer speed that can be achieved by the T7 is 1,050MB/s on a PC that supports USB 3.2 Gen2, UASP mode, but the speed may vary depending on your PC environment and the types of data being transferred. Please look to the details below for possible causes (and solutions) if you think your T7 is under performing.

      Scenario 1 (PC Environment)
      Your PC's USB Type C Port must support USB 3.2 Gen 2 (10Gbps) in order to fully utilize the speed of the T7. USB 3.0 Gen.1, USB 3.1 Gen 1. USB 3.2 Gen.1 are restricted to 5Gbs speeds and may be the bottleneck to the performance of your T7.

      Scenario 2 (Cable)
      Using other cables besides the enclosed cable that comes with the T7 may cause performance degradation due to the varying internal resistance and maximum allowable current of other cable types that does not come officially with the T7.

      Scenario 3 (Dynamic Thermal Guard, DTG)
      The T7 is designed to activate the DTG (Dynamic Thermal Guard) when the product reaches a its threshold temperature due to prolonged data transfers and usage. The smartly activated DTG function prevents the product from overheating and automatically slows down providing it a cool off period. The DTG technology enhances safety and reliability by preventing the product from reaching an excessively high temperature.

      Should you need further assistance, please contact Samsung Customer Support directly so that we can better investigate your speed issue and assist you towards a resolution.

      1) Call: 1-800-SAMSUNG (ask for Storage Devices). Available 9AM - 12AM EST (Mon-Fri)

    I picked this up to go with my ps5 and I am not disappointed. It works beautifully with the ps5 in case your wondering. Once you have it setup properly, the ps4 games will automatically go to this external ssd and you don't have to worry about transferring the files over.

    I was somewhat skeptical about this external SSD because my initial intentions were to use it as a backup data option, However this drive amaze me with both seek and reference times and was a cakewalk to calibrate and install with my MacBook Pro. Highly recommend this Samsung SSD T7.

    Great little device for storing media files with plug-and-play ability and fast data access. Perfect for storing media files to transfer between computers, and for archiving projects that don't need to be kept on the internal hard drive.

    Great place for storing important stuff! I also use it to store videos and pictures from all of our travels. Quickly transfers files. Definitely worth buying to backup any important things on your computer, phone, camera, drone or any tech you might have.
