Customers commend the T7 2TB External USB 3.2 Gen 2 Portable SSD with Hardware Encryption for its excellent performance, convenient portability, and ample storage capacity. Many appreciate its compact size. While some users noted that the drive can get warm during data transfers, and that the price point may be high for some, the positive feedback on performance and storage outweighs these concerns.

    I needed a fast, lightweight external drive to use to backup my laptop PC's internal SSD. This drive is ideal. Data transfer is quick and the drive itself is small and light. It's exactly what I was looking for.

    Got this for my new PS5. Very nice external hard drive. The size is great to hide behind the unit. Extremely fast. I had originally bought the 500 GB but traded it in for the 1 TB since the new PlayStation games are very huge.

    Great External Storage for Playstation

    Works great as extended storage for Playstation systems. On PS4, it's recognized right away and ready to use after formatting to the system, and games loaded onto the T7 load quickly and run smoothly. If you intend to use it only with PS4, you can save some money by getting the T5 instead, as the 3.0 USB ports on PS4 are unable to allow the T7 to reach its top transfer speeds. But if you intend to use the external ssd with the PS5, then the T7 is more worthwhile because that system can support the top transfer speeds through USB 3.2 Gen 2 connection. Tests I found online show that PS4 games stored on the T7 with PS5 load and perform just as well as when those games are stored on the system's internal storage. A worthwhile investment to play and preserve your PS4 games for the new gen.

    Came in to get an external hard drive and was not to very sure what kind to get or how much memory I would need. Ed (the supervisor) came over to help me out to pick one and then he even walked me over to the register and checked me out. Had a great experience and was very fast.

    Samsung T7 SSD

    Samsung's Portable SSD T7 Touch scored our PCMag Editors' Choice award and Best of the Year honors as the top external solid-state drive for 2020, largely on the strength of its fingerprint-based security system. The Samsung Portable SSD T7 (starts at $109.99 for 500GB; $369.99 for the 2TB version tested) saves you money by skipping the fingerprint reader and is available in a different set of colors. It's a tiny, handy storage device with solid performance for its class, and while it lacks the convenience of the T7 Touch's biometric security, its strong password-protected encryption should be more than adequate to protect your data.

    Works great with my Xbox Series X. Much smaller than a spinning portable drive and since it's ssd, it sits on top of the Xbox with no problem with heat. Oh, pretty fast too.

    Tiny and fast - 1TB in this package is perfect for archiving or for travel. And it comes with two cords - for standard USB and USB-c connectivity. I love it.
