Customer Ratings & Reviews

I used this SSD while traveling across the country and carrying lots of video files. Nothing has corrupted and still works great! I like the high transfer speed, the amount of storage for the price. The size is small and compact, which us great since I am a student. It does not run hot and I would purchase this again.

The Samsung T7 2TB Portable SSD in Titan Gray is a standout performer in the world of external storage. With fast transfer speeds, robust security, and durable design, it’s a reliable solution for a wide range of professional and personal needs. Performance and Speed Equipped with USB 3.2 Gen 2 and NVMe technology, the T7 delivers outstanding read/write speeds—up to 1,050 MB/s read and 1,000 MB/s write. These speeds are especially useful for transferring large video files, high-resolution photos, and working with resource-heavy applications. I’ve been using it primarily for 6K RAW footage, and it has handled the data load with ease. Perfect Companion for Blackmagic 6K Camera One of the best surprises has been how seamlessly the T7 works with my Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera 6K. The drive keeps up with the high data rate required for 6K RAW recording without dropped frames or lag. It mounts instantly, records smoothly, and provides the speed needed for professional filmmaking workflows. The compact size also makes it easy to rig directly to the camera or cage setup without adding unnecessary bulk. Security and Software The built-in AES 256-bit hardware encryption is a big plus, especially for sensitive video content. Samsung’s Portable SSD software allows you to password-protect the drive easily, adding another layer of security. Design and Durability The slim aluminum body feels premium and sturdy. It’s designed to withstand drops from up to 6.5 feet, which is reassuring when working on location or in fast-paced environments. The Titan Gray finish looks sleek and professional. Compatibility The T7 includes both USB-C to USB-C and USB-C to USB-A cables, making it easy to connect to a wide range of devices, including my MacBook Pro, desktop workstation, and even Android devices. It plays well across platforms with no setup hassle. Battery-Free Reliability Because it’s bus-powered via USB, there’s no need for an external power source—perfect when working in the field or with a camera like the BMPCC 6K. Conclusion The Samsung T7 2TB Portable SSD is an excellent choice for creatives, especially filmmakers using high-resolution cameras like the Blackmagic 6K. Its combination of speed, security, portability, and camera compatibility makes it a dependable storage solution. Even after extensive use, it continues to perform flawlessly—exactly what you want when your footage and workflow depend on it.

As easy as plug in and start transferring. It’s compact and super convenient — fits easily in my bag or pocket. The performance is solid: file transfers are noticeably quicker than my old external drives, which means less waiting and more doing.

Very portable. Packs a lot of storage in a small package (size of the palm of your hand)! Fast. Streams 4K video stored on the SSD in real time without stuttering (using a MacBook Pro with M2 chip). Good quality. The SSD is metal and feels sleek and robust but is not heavy due to its small size. Comes with both USB-A and USB-c connection cables.

Needed a faster drive as photos and videos are taking up more space as resolution increases and my data was trapped in the cloud somewhere. I bought this drive thinking it was a temporary fix and it turned out to be a godsend. There are faster drives available BUT… many are rated at 25%-30% of the total read/write cycles of this drive meaning they’ll last 25%-30% of the estimated drive life. It’s fast enough to do anything an intermediate user would need to use with the benefit of password protection and encryption. Just make sure you don’t lose your password if you activate one, not sure if you can recover it if that were to happen. Password protection and 750-850 Read/write speeds on my Mac (750 read on my M1/850 read on my Intel model) make it 10x faster than my old external WD HDD and I’m future proofed for years to come. Excellent value and performance. I usually shoot for the stars when buying new components but this purchase had NO Remorse associated with it. I actually want to gift one to everyone I know who has had issues recovering media from their phones or clouds. It can download entire albums in record time depending on the size of your library. I’d highly recommend this product and will probably be buying 1-2 more in the near future

Bought the external storage for concert content (ie. larger videos and loads of photos). Its transfer from my initial laptop storage was simple, quick, and did not compromise the quality of content (that I have noticed). The only thing I would tell future users to mind would be to transfer larger quantities in batches. Without breaks, the storage can heat up very quickly and to very hot temperatures.

I recently bought the Samsung - T7 1TB External USB 3.2 Gen 2 Portable SSD, and I am really happy with it. It was super easy to set up, just plug it in and it is ready to go. No setup or software needed. What I love most is how fast it is. I transferred large videos and files in just seconds. It’s way quicker than the regular hard drives I have used before. It is also super small and lightweight, so I can carry it in my pocket or bag with no problem when I go to school. The design is sleek and it feels strong, not cheap. You can tell it is good quality. Overall, this SSD is fast, reliable, and easy to use. Totally worth it for anyone who needs quick storage on the go.

Loving my Portable SSD. I like to play games that use big mods so the 2TB space is very welcome! Works perfectly and is super fast!

If you're looking for an easily portable SSD then look no further. I recently purchases this drive to take with me on vacation so I can move footage for my youtube channel off my cameras and onto my computer. This drive not only was super small and easy to carry around but the internals of this drive are phenomenal. With speeds quicker than or the same as larger drives in a sleek design and only needed one short cable making travel easy, made this SSD one of the best options on the market. Would HIGHLY recommend this drive to anyone and everyone.

This Samsung ssd is fast and easy to connect very reliable.

When my laptop was crashing, Geek Squad personnel suggested to save all my stuff on this. It comes with different cables, ask you to download the app for it, you can set up a password for security, and uploaded everything instantly. Great to back up your stuff on it frequently. Easy to download from it.

I'm used to the very bulky external hard drives, this is slim, compact and well-traveled. the transfer speed for large files is also a nice factor, the C port usage with the new Lenovo i have ties in well for space saving style. Hands Down better that the Bulky 6T Seagate i use.

The 1TB storage SSD samsung drive has been useful and efficient for my work. It is light so you can bring it anywhere and plug in to any Type C. I love it and I still use it now for my college work which has been four years.

Works as expected. Needed to pair with a new MacBook with only USB-C inputs. A definite upgrade over the older Western Digital I had been using. Very satisfied with the purchase.

I use these with my Black Magic 6K Pro. They are slightly wider and thinner than the previous T5 model but so far they are also just as reliable. As far as storage and speed bigger faster better.

I’ll start off by saying that you CANNOT run Xbox Series X/S titles from this device. However, you CAN run regular Xbox One games from it. I use it on my new Series X console and I figured out that it’s best to use this to store all of the Xbox One/360 titles on and the next-gen Series X/S on the internal drive. You can, however, store the next-gen titles on here, but again you CANNOT run the next-gen titles form here, only the previous-gen ones. Still a great SSD with good storage, and real-time transfer speeds of about 2.5 Gbps. Solid purchase.

Great SSD, can't go wrong with this one. I got it primarily to shoot videos off my phone. Its small size also makes it convenient to carry around in my pocket. Has decent read/write speeds and while the newer T9 is better, you can get this for cheaper for 70-80% of the same performance. P.S. I added a metal ring that attaches to my magsafe. That way, I don't need to hold on to the SSD while recording stuff.

Solid Hard drive, fast, dependable, easy to use. I have 7 of these for client backups

Compact and reliable hard drive that's solid state so no moving parts to worry about. They can be pricey but I like this one so much I bought it twice.

This is a great option to access lots of storage without having to carry extra weight. A USB thumb drive would work too but its flash memory is usually slower than this external SSD drive. Still the read and write speeds of this drive will vary depending on the file sizes and the PC hardware. The biggest downside are the included short cables - they are not flexible enough which can leave this light weight drive hanging on one end.
