Customer Ratings & Reviews

Great secondary storage for those who didn't get enough in their laptop and can't add more because it's soldered. I have a 1TB drive in my Macbook Pro and I was running out of space because of how large my photo library has become since I got a full frame camera and have been storing raws and using Lightroom (DMGs are stupid big.) I have also have several Steam games stored on it and they run just fine. I've benchmarked the drive and it consistently gives me ~850MB/s reads and writes excluding file system overhead, so it's likely saturating the 10Gbps USB 3.1 bus on my laptop. I was able to copy my ~380GB photo library in under 10 minutes. All in all, it's a pretty good deal if you get it while it's on sale like I did for $140. With that said, always remember to keep a backup. I just rolled it into my Time Machine (Apple,) backup to my external 8TB rotational media drive for redundancy because devices can and do fail.

I needed a newer solution that was faster than my old external drive. I've had this one for some time now. The transfers are quick and the case that was included makes for easy transport. My normal usage is for personal files and gaming. Its compatible with my PC, tablet, and Steam Deck.

If you need a reliable and fast external SSD, you can't go wrong with this model. As a design professional, I have extensive storage needs and I've tried a few different models. In my opinion, the Samsung T7 offers the best value for the price and highly recommmend. Its fast and reliable, which are the most important attributes

Excellent storage. Fast. Good back for my iMac. I would buy again.

Traveling with two or three of these drives is a must if you are a photographer/videographer/media maker, I use them to temporarily store my files before backing them up to my network once I'm back home or to the cloud if I am within access to secure internet/wifi.

A great SSD to help expand my storage space. It always feels like I'm running out of storage space, so this portable drive is an immense convenience to store photos and videos!

The best reliable and convient SSD device. Perfect for all kinds of data storage

Perfect for my needs. You can reformat the drive any way you’d like and even split the format. It’s perfect for music projects and catalogues. Plenty of space for documents and can even be used as a back up for your laptop. Very easy to use I have about five of these devices.

I love this SSD! Very useful device. It's small and and accurate as advertised. It's fast and great for high speed data transfer especially in photo or video editing. I mostly utilize this as an editing drive because it's designed for such high bandwidth transfer rates.

This very compact solid state device (ssd) is excellent for backup storage of files, which everyone should have. I got this one when my previous backup drive (not solid state) failed. This one is smaller, faster and should last much longer.

Setup is fast and easy. The T7 2TB is well-suited for automated, scheduled backups of one's desktop or laptop. (I'm currently using Macrium Reflect 7 software, which just completed a nightly incremental backup. Process is so quick that I intend to use nightly full backups.) Read and write speeds are very decent--as long as you are connecting with quality USB 3.1 gen 2 cables. Samsung-supplied cables work well, albeit are very short. Please avoid using cheap USB 2.0 bargain-basement cables. They will pass data at fractional speeds and hugely compromise performance.

Small and compact, the T7 is a high-performing SSD at a great cost. Note that some USB readers may require a certain amount of wattage to use it--research first before purchasing, but it's a fantastic option if applicable.

Great SSD. Fast and furious. Stays cool and has lots of space for my photos and movies. Smaller than I expected. Strange occurrence with the cable provided, the connector at the drive melted as if overheated. Didn't affect performance, but I replaced it anyway. Hasn't been an issue since.

My favorite external hard drives! Small and easy to transport when I'm on the go, and I've dropped a few of them and they've all survived the drop too (though I don't recommend dropping them, lol). I use them to store high-res JPEGs and RAW images and they work great in combination with my Macbook Pro.

I use this drive for my photography and video editing. I would say this is one of the best portable SSD’s in the price range at the moment. The design is very compact and pocketable easy to carry. It is very well built and about the size of a credit card. Highly recommend anyone who needs speed in their creative profession and pocketable storage. Samsung has the best SSD’s in the market. I picked this up from curbside in about 5 minutes. Best Buy associate was very precise and helpful. Great product customer service overall!

I was surprised with how small this thing is. Such a little thing but so much space! I can finally access my dissertation data from the comfort of my home. Worth every penny!

Pretty solid option! I got mine for extra storage for my video projects, and so far it seems to be fast enough to edit off of (I shoot with an A7s3, 10 bit, 4k). The transfer speed is insane compared to the HDDs I was using. Would recommend!

Ordered this to store photos on. The read/write speed is amazing and doesn’t take up much space either. Added bonus is it comes with both USB-C to USB-C and USB-A to USB-C cables.

Great portable external SSD. Very small. Easy to take anywhere with you. Very easy to use.

This is a great product! It's 10 times faster than my old hard drive external storage. It performs even better then I expected. The size makes it very easy to carry all my important data with me. It's cheaper to buy a second one as a back up and replace my cloud storage. No more internet or tech issues with paid cloud storage. Highly recommend this product!
