Using as replacement of internal startup drive on my iMac 27, three months conclusion is…….speeds up Lightroom quite a bit compared to internal original. Gets quite hot but less the 55C……how long it lasts is another question.

Pretty fast and smaller to port around. Best of both worlds !!

Best storage device. Handy and large file holding capacity especially when you are overwhelmed with family pictures on your phone this gives you a big time relief. It even got dropped several times but works perfectly! Price is very affordable too!!

The Samsung T7 2TB SSD is incredibly fast and compact. File transfers are smooth and much quicker than a traditional external drive. The build quality feels premium, and the hardware encryption adds extra peace of mind for sensitive data. Easy to use with both USB-C and USB-A cables included. Highly recommended for backups and everyday use.

Very fast SSD with great hardware. Comes with USB-C to USB-C cable that allows for Power Deliver and full USB 3.2 Gen 2 speeds. And a USB-C to USB-A that also allows for 10Gbs speed. I have zero complaints and edit all my videos and photos off of this drive. I wish I would have bought one sooner. It is small, light and can slip in any pocket of a backpack or laptop sleeve, perfect for on the go.

Very slim and fast! I bought some other storage devices and this is by far the best experience

Have only had for a short time, but it has so far been fast and reliable. While transferring larger amount of files (~100 GB at a time), it was tending to run hot, but cooled off almost immediately after the transfer was complete. It is as small and compact as I could have asked for. High quality product.

The package comes with both a USB-A-to-USB-C cable and a USB-C-to-USB-C cable, just so you know. I was quite happy with the addition of both cables. I have had issues with USB-C in the past but so far the C-to-C cable works super fast and has given me no problems (so I haven't even had to use the other cable, yet, but I'm glad I have it). It can get quite hot, so make sure it's propped up on something or you pause frequently between file transfers. And, so far, I've only had it disappear and not show up in my file folders once, after going idle. Overall, just a bump up to a better experience.

After using the Samsung T7 1TB SSD for a year, I’m happy to grab a second one. It’s been a solid drive—super fast for transferring big files, and the size makes it easy to toss in my bag. The hardware encryption is a nice perk, especially since I’ve got some work files on it. I also own the SanDisk Extreme Portable SSD, which is great too, but I feel the T7 runs cooler and feels a bit sturdier over time. Overall, it’s a solid, reliable choice.

Tiny, BIG, fast, and super portable. Best portable drive I have ever used.

Works great. No problems and does the job. Great external storage option.

Very compact 2 tb ssd reliable storage good for editing 4 k video

I use this drive to hold my music and videos for when I dj. It yet has to have a disconnection issue but only time will tell but for now its solid!

This is a very nice external hd. This thing is lightening FAST compared to my other standard HDD. It does get warm but just keep it in the open and you should be fine. It is kinda slippery so I suggest getting a case for it because it can definitely slip outta your hand. If you want a FAST external drive this is the one to get! It’s a kinda pricey tho.

Easy and fast external drive. This was my first SSD drive. I learned that these drives get warm if you write a lot of data to them at once. My computer is 5 years old so speed was constrained by only having USB 2.0 ports The drive is very compact. The fact that it came with two cables meant I didn't have to purchase any additional dongles or converters.

Great Drive!! Fast, Reliable, and Easy to Use!! Using for backups and transfer between computers offline for over a year without any issues.

This is a very fast external SSD drive and works very well with my Mac Mini giving me the additional drive space that I need. I love the compact size.

I was looking for extra storage to place old files and photos off my computer. I was so had a lot of photos I wanted to keep. This 1 terabyte helps me do just that! It’s small and can be stored anywhere. Great job Best Buy!

Worked great as an emergency backup location for important data. Really easy to setup and use. Has the ability to provide a password lock but haven’t used that yet. Fast transfer, small device did exactly what I needed.

What a great decision!! I was planning to trade in our Mid-2015 iMac 27" 5k as it was running SLOW...almost unusably slow to be honest. I wasn't sure what to do, then I read some online suggestions that going to an external (changing the HDD on an iMac is nightmare inducing) SSD drive. I did some research and settled on the Samsung T7 (warranty is less than the 5yr competitors however). After properly formatting the drive for a Mac bootable drive, and then cloning the internal hard drive, I started up the iMac...and OH MY GOODNESS!!! The iMac NEVER ran this fast...it is crazy what a difference this made (using the USB-A 3.0 port..not even Thunderbolt 2)!! I highly recommend this for anyone looking for a FAST external drive. It is truly tiny as well...hard to describe, but maybe the size of a deck of cards, but only about 7-10 cards thick.
