    VERY FAST EXTERNAL DRIVE

    I purchased this drive to be able to bring various files along with me when not at home, This is good if you have limited disk capacity and no network connectivity to any cloud services. I formatted the unit in APFS to work with a 16" M1 Pro MacBook. I added several containers (think partitions) to store data in easy to retrieve locations. Data transfer times are very fast between this device and the MacBook. Keep in mind the speed of your computer's main disk device and the interface on the machine you will be using this with. I purchased the unit on sale, which made it a very good buy. If 2TB is too large, the units are offered in 1TB and 500GB. Units with slower transfer times are available as well.

    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.

    No problems. Bought it because my SSD is only 125 GB and I wanted something for holding Steam games. I don't have the best gaming PC but it seems better than than running them from my 500 GB HDD. Plus I dont have to uninstall one game to play another due to no space. Plus I got it on a sale which made it even sweeter and I picked up in store. Was ready 10 minutes after they opened.

    This external drive is very nice and cool. It's conveniently small but with great capacity. I can plug it directly to my Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra and store backups in a matter of seconds or a couple of minutes, depending on how long ago was the last one. It also works well my Samsung Laptop and Apple Macbook.

    This is invaluable to have. Cant tell you how many times i have carted this around with me to get files back in forth to where i need them. 2 TB works great, can be used as a Time Machine backup, but why GO Raid. As a Portable drive this is fantastic. 2 TB is the right amount of storage to get anything you could possible image from point a to point b.. I am using this as a Sample Storage for Music studio (AND YES, samples can take up a TB or two easy) but also music score info.. This cuts down on having to carry so much clutter with me.. Simply fits in the pocket and off i go.. When i use it for my IT stuff i can keep just about all the code i need for reference along with ANY MSDN docs and installs. Perfect companion for on the go.

    I love the small compact size, fast transfer rate using the USB 3.2 Gen 2. The Encryption seems to be solid. Now I am able to re-organize all my files and put all the files I want to make sure I have a back up on this nice portable drive.

    This is so small and has a lot of space for files. It's very easy to use. It is also expensive. If you have the money and need to back up files, this will be great. I just can't believe the pocketability of this product.

    Great External SSD

    Bought for my PS5 since the PS5's storage is low. I have a lot of PS4 games and PS5 games that I had to keep deleting so when I finally got this storage I was relieved that I wouldn't have to keep reinstalling games. And since I heard the T7 was a really fast External drive I knew I had to get it. And it is! It's very quick at downloading games and loading them as well. I thought maybe I'd be waiting a bit longer since it's playing off a External SSD but nope! It's almost as fast as the PS5 SSD when loading my PS4 games up. Also with the recent software update on PS5 I can now store my PS5 games on here to which is fantastic! I've already used over half way of the storage on this thing and still have a lot more room for extra PS4 games.

    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.
