    Samsung solid state drives are a solid choice

    I always purchase these Samsung solid state drives. In the past it has been the T5, but this time it was the T7. They are speedy and reliable. I believe the T7 is faster than the T5 - it felt faster, but I was also using it on a newer computer, so it could simply have been the bus speed. I also really like that they come with both a usb c to usb c cable and a regular usb to usb c cable - so no matter what kind of connection you need, it works. We have Macs and these drives work with them out of the box.

    Got this to store pictures from my iPhone. It's small and quick. It does get pretty warm, so just be cognizant of that.

    I use this drive for my Time Machine to back up my Macintosh Computer. The compact size and cables for both USB and USB C connection enhances the versatility of this drive.

    This hard drive is super fast and a great deal! Amazing how much storage you get from something thats smaller than my wallet. I know this hard drive could potentially fail in the future but with no moving parts (SSD), its way more reliable than the hard drives we all used just a few years ago.

    Good quality SSD, with some reservations

    Works. I have another one, so they last (if quality is the same). One downside is it comes with Samsung Magician. Earlier versions came with a simple application in case you use encryption. I tried Samsung Magician, albeit a long time ago, and (sorry I forget why) found it annoying. Thankfully, the old application works with this drive. Second downside, be aware that only 931 GB are available on the drive. I'll let you search the web to find out why.

    I picked up a Mac Mini to replace an older (and 8x the price) workstation. I upgraded the ram on the order but just got a 512GB hard drive model (which runsfxthe OS and programs) and have all the data/videos/photos, etc. on a Samsung T7 external over FireWire. The price-per-gig setting up this way made that decision easy. The data transfer speed is so fast, I can’t tell the difference between the external and internal (It’s immediately obvious how fast this is). Great drive!

    I use this for extended storage on my PS4/PS5 and it is excellent. Games load times decreased about 40%-50% on PS4, depending on the game. I also use it for PS4 games on my PS5 to free up valuable space on the internal storage. I highly recommend this for anyone with an extensive game library to help manage storage and avoid the constant re-download of games.

    I use this SSD primarily for video editing and other high-bandwidth tasks and it’s absolutely amazing. Great for professional applications. Super overkill for basic file storage but it’s an amazing product otherwise.

    Quick and tiny! Love how small this is compared to my old hard drives. Super portable. Does get really warm when transferring large amounts of data. I just did my transfers in batches to ensure it didn’t overheat as I’ve seen happen to some in other reviews
