    My laptop only had one SSD drive. The external SSD drive is faster than the second internal hard drive some computers I’ve owned had. Works quite well to store old pictures taken before the cloud was known by the average consumer.

    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.

    A very fast drive. I bought this to get over 50gb of files off of 3 Imacs at my school that had videos i made for my film major classes, despite the fact those Imacs are slow on the network they run on this drive was very rapid. First time using a SSD it blew me away. I do not regret this purchase. Its amazing!

    Fantastic little drive. I know it can be intriguing to buy other products which have lower price or higher capacity than this one, but that's all for a reason, and the reason is that they don't have the quality of this samsung drive. Buy it at a glance and it'll always be a good companion to you and your important files. For this specific samsung product you're buying the product not the brand.

    I wasn't sure what to expect when buying this was mostly just looking for a decent external that would hold space and wasn't big in size, I got exactly what I was looking for with no strings attached I'd highly recommend this product

    Serves its purpose well as an external diagnostic/utility drive for computer maintenance. Not as fast as external NVMe SSDs, but plenty fast for basic file backup or diagnostic utility applications. Also doesn't run nearly as hot as NVMe SSDs during high read/write scenarios.

    I've tried it on many different products; anything from a flagship Android device, MacBook, Win10 system & a Xbox One X. On the MacBook and Win10 setups, it averages speeds right around 850mb/s. On the Xbox One X console it averages about 490-520mb/s due to the console only having USB 3.0, so the SSD is essentially being bottle-necked, which I knew would be the case from day 1. However, in all cases this drive is ridiculously fast, has really nice build quality, easy to use on any platform and for what you're getting it's definitely worth the price. I've made this the main drive from which I run games off of on my XB1X. I have the stock internal 1TB HDD, a 5TB external USB 3.0 HDD that I download all games and apps to, and then I have this new 1TB SSD that I transfer my most played/current game(s) to because it loads and runs so much faster. Overall, I haven't had it long but I have no complaints, yet. If anything changes I'll be sure to update my review, but as of now I have no cons whatsoever about purchasing this SSD. For the price & the future proof of it being USB 3.2 Gen 2, it really is hard to beat.

    It's a great little size to fit in your pocket or a laptop bag. Due to it's USB-C interface, it's fast, versatile to be used with the latest devices as well as backward compatible with the old ones. After experiencing this, will never use the 2.5" external drives.

    No issues at all so far with this drive. I use it for DAW both at home and on stage. It's fast, it's big, and I have no latency issues at all. Some complain about heat issues, but I have not had any, and I tax it out quite a bit (reading DAW sounds). The only con is the price. I wish it were more around the $200 range, and that it were true Thunderbolt, but that typically doubles the price.

    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.
