I'm glad i have this now. i have somewhere to store my pictures and school files. Its worth the price since my laptop does not have that much storage to work with and dont want to push its limits then it breaking, then paying a repair. Good and fast. Portable as well

**Purchased on 11/30/2020 Black Friday sale, after eyeing it since release early 2020**
Edit: Make SURE that both your computer and the USB-C cable you are using is capable of the USB3.2Gen2 speeds that this offers!!
Alright guys listen up, Im a wannabe film maker/photographer alright, and on top of that I am a full time student studying biology and nursing during this pandemic. Check this all out
For school, being online, I record my entire screen with audio for every lecture (because I cant focus for the life of me and I require reference all the time, also my memory is crap lol) so that's about 3-4 lectures a day (with each recording being 3-5GB) and I go between keeping them on my MacBook's hard drive and off loading them onto this SSD.
So I have a Fuji X-T3 and a MacBook Pro 13in(Intel i5, early 2020, 16GB RAM, 1TB storage) for all my creative desires... For photography, I shoot in full uncompressed RAW with TONS of "spraying and praying" (so obviously that's GIGABYTES of data, on average about 60-80GB per shoot) and for video, I shot a bunch of weddings in full 4K, 60fps 10-bit 4:2:0 at 200mbps H.265/HEVC (between of 240-320GB of footage per wedding)
GUYS. LISTEN- Not ONLY can this thing transfer 600GB of data in under 12 minutes... Playback of ANY video (my lectures or footage from my camera) is STUTTER FREE!!!!
But WAIT!! THERES MORE!!
I use Final Cut Pro X for my film making needs... The T7 can handle NON-PROXY EDITING!!!! This translates into NOT having to spend time waiting for optimized media AND saving space on both my MacBook and this SSD!! YOU CAN EDIT 4K H.265 CODEC WITH NO LAG!!!
If you cannot already tell, I am very excited and IMPRESSED at both the performance and value of this thing. I cannot believe I was thinking about returning this!! I also have the 500GB T5, and lemme tell ya, the T7 is almost TWICE as fast in sequential processes.
Basically, BUY THIS!!
Hopefully this helps out anyone on the fence

Excellent product; highly recommended. Thank you. My USB drive took a dump, and was becoming useless. I listened to the Best Buy Apple Guy and took his advice about the T7.

Another great Samsung product, Very small, easily portable. SSD so it is also very fast. Really doing the job, so much so I bought 2 of them one with fingerprint security.

It was super quick to set up for both me and a friend who isn't the most tech-savvy. I am using one of these to run my iOS on a 27" iMac (the computer's internal drive is an HDD, which was making it incredibly slow to start), and while it did take a little time to convert it to the correct format for that, it has been working like a dream ever since.

This is the only brand and model that I buy. I currently have two of these (Gray & Blue). For me, one backup is not enough, there should be two copies, incase I need to re-format one SSD.

Snappy, easy to use.
I originally bought hhd 5G for $100, but realized how big of a difference comparing to this at $290. Great price for a much better quality.

Works as it should. This was an upgrade after a very old one. I like how small and sleek it is, I was expecting it to be large and it’s not. Lots of storage and cost effective for the amount of storage.
