    It’s amazing how small these external drives have gotten. My old one was about eight years old and was working fine, but I was getting nervous so got a new one to make sure I have no issues in the near term. Works great and as intended.

    Super fast SSD drive. I dropped this 4 times already, once on a concrete and it works like a charm, sturdy aluminum case! Highly recommended

    This is a great little SSD drive. It's compact, fast and (so far) reliable. This is the second one I bought to use as a Time Machine backup for a Mac.

    Two Terabytes!!! Massive storage device with USB 3.2 Gen 2 connection. SSD drive= no moving parts! I use it in conjunction with my DJI CINESSD 480 GB (and soon 960 GB) for the DJI Inspire 2 and MacBook Pro. Works as advertised perfectly. Will be buying again as my Drone jobs get bigger. J.

    I have a 1TB and it's the best thing I have ever owned as an external hard drive so I decided to buy another one just more storage space. Looking forward to the 4TB

    I have been happy with my Samsung 2TB drive thus far. Simple and works well with my Mac. Although I hate that I had to also buy an adapter to plug it in (although I would say that is more of an issue of Mac connectivity lacking options)... frustrating.

    Easy to install, takes up very little space. Being a SSD no noise or moving parts to wear out. So convenient to manually back up all files, pictures and music. Just a quick click drag and done! Leaving it plugged in so easy to update.

    The Best Buy employees had it ready as soon as I got there from placing the order online so kudos to them for sure. Great hard drive, very fast, easy to work off of. I got it without the gel because it saved a little bit of money but if you're traveling a lot with your HDs maybe invest in the protective gel.

    Works. I have another one, so they last (if quality is the same). One downside is it comes with Samsung Magician. Earlier versions came with a simple application in case you use encryption. I tried Samsung Magician, albeit a long time ago, and (sorry I forget why) found it annoying. Thankfully, the old application works with this drive. Second downside, be aware that only 931 GB are available on the drive. I'll let you search the web to find out why.

    I use this SSD primarily for video editing and other high-bandwidth tasks and it’s absolutely amazing. Great for professional applications. Super overkill for basic file storage but it’s an amazing product otherwise.

    Hands down one of the best and fastest SSD you can use as an external drive for storing ps4 games on your ps5! it's really small and can be placed anywhere. Plugged right at the back of my PS5, transferred all the games at really fast speed. Freed up main drive for ps5 for actual ps5 games.

    This was recommended by the Geek Squad members Tyler and Brandon. We wanted all our photos and documents backed up from 2 previous computers to be all in one space. Works great and easy to use.
