    Great little drive. I know it should be getting around 1Gb/s transfer rate but I'm only getting 650 MB/sec on my M1 MacBook Pro. I'm confident that this is a MacBook issue and hope it will be resolved soon. Until then, I'm still happy to have the 650! All in all, the size, speed, and reliability of this drive make it a no-brainer for a new MacBook.

    Not getting better external ssd

    Great external fast storage option for anything. T7 only improves upon the T5. Possibly my 5th now, have several T5's and 1 other T7. I tried the sandisk first before buying this last t7, but within a week it had unreadable errors/bad sectors, and my macbook would only allow read only. Really wierd, and certain its a one off. But went back to Best Buy and returned it for the samsung. Wanted to try something new, Samsungs have impressed and i have a bunch, lesson learned, stay with tried and true. Read/write speeds are fast. Gets warm, sometimes really warm, when workiing off of it for hours. Likely throttles a bit, but havent noticed. Works well for dumping video vides from an event, and then working off them (along with scratch drive) in FFP or Premiere Pro. Dont notice a difference in anything between local SSD and this external. $250 isnt cheap, but 250 for 2tb of fastish ssd, is going rate for drive itself, let along the enclosure and controller this usit gives. A+, have already and likely will, continue to buy.

    This gives plenty of storage for your MacBook. I’m using it to store B-roll, temporarily filing current projects, and finished projects, as well as the editing software app. No more storage issues! Editing is now a breeze and takes a few minutes to export even for an hour long video.

    Design is perfect and so slick, it's blazing fast, connectivity is great, choice of cables is perfect, it warms up at times but its understandable since I'm a Dj and use it for that, tons of files, material and size is perfect and compact.

    Fast Disk for 4k Editing

    Super fast ans small factor. I have 2TB version to edit 4k/60 and 30 videos off disk without using Proxies in DaVinci and it handles it really well. If you have new Mac M4 or a PC that has the newer USB standard then get the new faster version that is 2000MB/s because this one is only 1050Mb/s, my M2 Pro Max does not have the new x4 USB so I got this one and I am very happy.

    Size is great, just wish SSD pricing would come down like the rest of storage has. This is really small and portable, but it feels like it should be treated very delicately to me. Speed is fast and appreciate having a spare 2TB with my internal 1TB SSD since editing videos takes up so much space.

    It work great. I use it for recording and it is reliable portable hardrive I ever use so far. Small and fast writing speed for videos I ever own so far. No problems or any other issues at all. Plug and use right away. I have hyperdeck for personal videos editing and this really helps.

    I love my Samsung T7 Hard Drive

    I've used this hard drive since February and so far, it's been great. I don't see a reason for me to replace it any time soon. As a DJ, I use this to store my music library on it and it's pretty fast in terms of allowing me to access my folders. I specifically like the fact that the drive comes with two separate data cables, and allows for you to use whichever is available for your system.

    Samsung T7 2TB external USB 3.2 Gen 2 SSD

    I don't trust, don't like, and won't use any kind of "cloud" storage, as your data and info are not stored in a cloud, but on a physical server somewhere that someone in the know can get access to. Yes there is encryption etc. I don't trust it. Since I don't, I store and back up everything I have on physical flashdrives or SSD drives. Samsung have always been great for me, and these are no different. Some other SSDs get very hot, but not Samsung. They always do what they are supposed to do. Have never had any problems, and on sale are a great value.

    My laptop was on its last leg (going on 10 years old) and I needed to back it up ASAP. I have a TON of stuff that I needed to save and this little beauty did it all! Compact and VERY easy to use, worth every penny!

    Best external drive I’ve bought. Smaller than I thought, yet very powerful. Speaking of storage, it can store up to 2TB digitally. And physically, I can fit all that in my pocket.

    SUPER FAST transfer speeds! I'm a Youtuber/content creator so I'm constantly transferring LARGE files that take forever! This hard drive is worth every penny with its lightening fast transfer speeds. It has made editing faster as well working directly off the a hard drive that is capable of running large files with ease!
