    I bought this to save space on my laptop while working with VM's. Total game changer. Will be getting a larger capacity next but this has been a godsend.

    Using it for Sentry mode on Tesla Model 3 for a month now. It gets hot when the car is left in the sun. Nonetheless, it still works, and no issues so far.

    Great sleek, portable, and reliable SDD. I brought this to back up my video footage of a graduation ceremony. The transfer rates are super fast on either USB-C or USB 3 (both cables come with the SSD, which is nice).

    I have several of these and have never had any issues. Most of them are used for storage, but one is used for editing active projects and its great to edit 4K footage directly from.

    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

    i'm guessing the new T9 series is faster, but this is my 2nd one of the T7 series and, like the first, it is fast, extremely convenient (small/thin/light), has a quality solid steel feel, and comes well packaged with 2 USB cables. Great piece of gear. Came formatted ex-Fat and that is what I needed - transfers seamlessly between Windows PC and Mac and can handle very large files.

    Very nice SSD drive. I have a few of these which I use for home backup and off site backup. They are small fast and perfect for what I need. I like that you can get color choices.

    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.
