    Found "bad sectors", but still good

    I upgraded from 500 gb to this 1 tgb external ssd. It is small and light weight. I like the "metalic" solid feel, not the "plastic" feel for other brands. I use it as a reliable mobile storage device between home and office computer. However, at one time, some of the files that I saved was "corrupted". Scanning with Samsung's Magician found few (n= 3) "bad sectors" [red dots]. This software can't "repair" the bad sectors. I guess I can still use it so long as the files don't land on these "bad sectors".

    Love love love SSDs! These are so fast, compact, and easy to carry around that I had to get one. This particular one is super fast and transferring data is a delight to see! No more waiting for my old drive to laboriously send and receive data. Can't recommend enough!

    Although the wait time to get a sales associate was long, the purchase was easy once he got there. The Geek Squad made getting set up as easy as it could be, considering my old laptop was dead, deader, and deadest. Thanks!
