    This Samsung 1 TB external hard drive is fast, convenient, and reliable. Small enough to pack away with your laptop in a backpack and light. I would recommend this one to anyone who needs a great external hard drive.

    I ran out of storage space on my laptop and didn’t want to spend the extra money to buy another computer with more space since I still love my laptop. This is was the perfect solution. So happy to have this now. Super easy to use and perfect for me. Highly recommended

    This drive lives up to its advertisement. It's the same size as a credit card but only thicker. It's lightening fast. Even on my 10 year old desktop I tested it and using the USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type C to C cable (I have a PCIe Type C USB Card installed) the read/write constantly exceeds 725mbps. Using the USB 3 connection it consistently tested at 425 mbps. Could not be happier. One side note. The cables that come with it are very short, maybe 6 to 8 inches. I purchased a 3ft USB Type C to C cable. Be sure it is rated at "10Gbps" to get the highest speeds. I didn't pay attention to the speed when I bought my cable and got one rated at 480mbps and had to exchange it. Also, if you want to maintain the higher speeds only use cables 3 feet or shorter. Based upon research, once you get a longer cable the speed starts to slow down considerably.

    Got this to back up my digital photos. I the mistake of not backing up my photos on the cloud or an external drive and lost about 4 thousand memories. Never again. I use this as a backup for other drives for storage. I know it sounds redundant, but if you want to safeguard your photos, you can't go wrong with this SSD drive. It's also compact, easily fits in your pocket.

    Using this as an external SSD for my 2020 MacBook Pro. I have the 2TB version, I partitioned 1TB for a backup drive, and I use the other 1TB for other things, and it’s partitioned in exFAT so I can use it with Mac or Windows. This SSD is great, it is fast, reliable, and does everything I need it to. I have another of these SSD’s that I use on my PS5, and the speed appears to be the same whether I am playing a PS5 game in the internal hard drive or playing a PS4 game from this external SSD. It’s a bit pricey, but not too bad, and it’s expected, since quality made products are often expensive. For what I use this for it is great, I am sure there are other applications that it probably wouldn’t be great for, but I am using one for general computer storage and 1 for gaming, and both do exactly what I need them to do.

    This is Samsung's fastest external SSD. Perfect for dumping camera cards in the field and for working with once back at home. Very lightweight, massive capacity, super fast transfer speeds. Highly recommended for photography and videography.

    I'm using this for large file storage and it works as advertised. Also included two different types of connector cables so adding a star for that! Only time will tell if it'll last but so far, so good. The only thing I wish it had was a case but it's so small that maybe Samsung figured that most people wouldn't use it. Other than that I'm happy so far.
