    Seems to work well, so far. It is quick and came with two mini cables for transferring data. One USB-C to USB-C, and the other from a USB-USB-C

    This is the only brand and model that I buy. I currently have two of these (Gray & Blue). For me, one backup is not enough, there should be two copies, incase I need to re-format one SSD.

    I am a studio engineer who needs plenty of space for files while at the same time the need to access them fast for pro software. This does the job plus more. Great product. Small and sleek.

    The Best Buy employees had it ready as soon as I got there from placing the order online so kudos to them for sure. Great hard drive, very fast, easy to work off of. I got it without the gel because it saved a little bit of money but if you're traveling a lot with your HDs maybe invest in the protective gel.

    I'm glad i have this now. i have somewhere to store my pictures and school files. Its worth the price since my laptop does not have that much storage to work with and dont want to push its limits then it breaking, then paying a repair. Good and fast. Portable as well

    Good portable SSD just make sure you are looking for an external portable and not an internal. I made that mistake.

    Works as it should. This was an upgrade after a very old one. I like how small and sleek it is, I was expecting it to be large and it’s not. Lots of storage and cost effective for the amount of storage.

    Great Drive for Expanding My M1 Storage

    This is a very handy external SSD. I purchased this to use with an M1 Mac Mini and it provides all the speed that I never had using an external hard drive. It's rated at 1,000 MBPS and I tested it from my Mac Mini and I get just under 700 MBPS. I'm not sure if this is common, but I've also heard many people don't get the stated speeds on the M1 Macs. However, I'm still happy with the speeds. It's a nice compact external SSD and I just place it in the cable tray under my sit/stand desk. I try to hide all of my cables as I actually use this drive permanently instead of a portable drive.

    I edit all my timelines off of these drives. They’re fast, reliable, durable and small. Have no hesitation to recommend for professional use. Worth the price on every way.

    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.

    I have been happy with my Samsung 2TB drive thus far. Simple and works well with my Mac. Although I hate that I had to also buy an adapter to plug it in (although I would say that is more of an issue of Mac connectivity lacking options)... frustrating.
