    My wife called this 'the greatest piece of tech' I ever bought. As a creative it allows her to quickly and easily move massive files between computers at home and on the go. Great build quality, discrete and light. Gets a bit warm during use, but not too bad. It's plug and play, but also has sokid security features like password protection.

    As long as you connect it via a USB 3.2 interface, this drive has very fast read and write speeds suitable for playing modern PC games and processing video.

    Love the size of it. So slim and not much bigger than a credit card. Plenty of storage space. Transfers media fairly quickly as well. Faster than i expected it to from a laptop that had not been used in a few years. About an hour for more than 100gb of media. Haven't tried from a phone yet. Opens up quickly as well when plugged into another laptop. Only downfall is the encryption process, Haven't totally figured it out yet, but once its encrypted and the password is set up i tried to open it on another device and the media would not show up on the new device, but it was still on the drive. Had to decrypt it on the old device before the media would show on the new device. Overall though it was worth the purchase though.

    Great quick device! I bought SanDisk due to sale, it wouldn't even recognize in any of my computers (Win and Mac), needed format? Read about hardware and heat issues, exchanged for Samsung note on sale, completely happy! Worked when first plugged in.

    Two cables; very fast transfer

    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.

    Working great, love the space. Games run perfectly, even with a cable that shows a low performance. Dropped it once and still works fine. I have mine taped to my laptop. Though I did see one on Amazon for $75. It was Prime Day however.

    I have a half dozen or so of these T7 1TB drives. They are rugged, reliable, and easy to carry. They are certainly better than using portable disk drives for backups.

    EXCELLENT External SSD for Mac; note on formatting

    Great dependable and fast external SSD. I am using the Samsung external SSDs with Macs, for quick Time Machine backups when the SSD is directly connected to a Mac. When I have used this SSD to setup a new Mac from a Time Machine back up from an old Mac, it is very quick. The Samsung SSD drive format is exFAT, which is compatible with Mac and Windows use. For Mac use only, the best format is AFPS, and formatting can be done by using Disk Utility in MacOS. Monitor the sale pricing; the price can occasionally drop significantly.

    1TB is so compact and fast

    Its just over the size of a credit card and about as thick as pencil. Works great and is lightening fast. I had a TimeMachine for years tucked away in a cabinet so you wouldn't see it. It crashed and now I have this on my desk, you barely even notice. I used it on my iMac and just story on top of the base mount with a short Thunderbolt cable. So much better than my TimeMachine in backup speed.

    Switched from a LaCie since it was giving me problems. The Read/Write is vastly quicker which makes editing easier and haven’t ran into any issues yet. Definitely my new go to.

    I have purchased 2 of these external hard drive memory cards. Wouldn't buy any other brand. Not flimsy like a standard disc memory. Strong. Hi memory. Easier to use. Very easy to set up and use. Better in every way compared to a "disc" memory.
