    I bought this to use as a Time Machine backup for my MacBook Pro. It is amazingly fast and small. Definitely worth the price.

    Samsung makes the best storage, hands down. This is a great size for backing up your entire hard drive and then some. Backups are very fast. If you use the encryption do not forget your password. Samsung has software to recover but it's buggy and if there's a firmware update it will not work.

    A nice step up from the T5, faster and has a better hand feel. Under heavy loads it does get warm to the touch, but I think thats normal for a high performance drive

    So far I've downloaded about 60,000 pictures from my Nikon D750, and have randomly played back a few of them. The T7 2TB works very quickly in both directions, and the playback into Photoshop is 100% true to the originals. I haven't dropped the T7 yet, but it appears to be pretty bullet proof. It is a bit more expensive than others of the same volume.

    Very satisfied with my (wife's) Samsung SSD portable Drive. I gave it to her for Christmas as her Samsung Galaxy Note 20 was running out of storage space fast. Connected it to her cellphone, followed the instructions and Voilà!!! her cellphone now has mote than half of its 128G storage capacity. Works like magic, highly recommended.

    Works perfectly. My first SSD and how fast it loads folders of pictures takes my breath away. One thing though - when the software is loaded, a message says that the drive can't be used. Don't panic. Go into the Mac utilities, then the Disk Utility app. Reformat the SSD as "Mac OS Extended (Journaled)". That's all.

    This is exactly what I needed. An SSD that was small and portable but had enough storage. It was a simple plug in and it worked.

    Good Portable Solid State Drive

    I bought this unit because I wanted a portable Solid State Drive that I can use with my laptop. I wanted to plug it in and leave it plugged all the time for easy access to the extra storage It provides. I did not want a backup only drive that cannot be left plugged in at all times. Most backup drives failed after extended use. Let’s see how this one work after a few months. It is a pricey hard drive but for now I’m very pleased with the quality of this unit. It is easy to use. Just plug it in and it works. The encrypted login is a nice feature. So far this unit is great and working just fine.
