    Best storage device. Handy and large file holding capacity especially when you are overwhelmed with family pictures on your phone this gives you a big time relief. It even got dropped several times but works perfectly! Price is very affordable too!!

    This is a great product! It's 10 times faster than my old hard drive external storage. It performs even better then I expected. The size makes it very easy to carry all my important data with me. It's cheaper to buy a second one as a back up and replace my cloud storage. No more internet or tech issues with paid cloud storage. Highly recommend this product!

    Using this drive as an augmentation drive for a video processing laptop with a full drive. Attached via USB-C with a 40gbps rated cable. This drive copies quickly and able to use Adobe Premiere to create and render video as if were a system drive. Previously did this on a sandisk extreme ssd on the same cable and had nothing but problems. This drive has been extremely useful is processing and has greatly reduced previous stress and issues.

    Love these Samsung SSDs. They are fast and reliable little drives. The only downside is that they’ve gone up in price from what they used to be.

    Perfect for my needs. You can reformat the drive any way you’d like and even split the format. It’s perfect for music projects and catalogues. Plenty of space for documents and can even be used as a back up for your laptop. Very easy to use I have about five of these devices.

    **5-Star Review for Samsung T7 1TB External USB 3.2 Gen 2 Portable SSD** I recently purchased the Samsung T7 1TB External USB 3.2 Gen 2 Portable SSD, and I couldn't be more impressed! Here are a few reasons why I’m giving it a five-star rating: 1. **Incredible Speed**: With read speeds of up to 1050 MB/s and write speeds of 1000 MB/s, transferring large files has never been faster. It significantly cuts down the time I used to spend waiting for backups and file transfers. 2. **Compact and Durable Design**: The sleek, lightweight design makes it easy to carry around in my bag. Plus, the aluminum body feels sturdy and is resistant to shocks, which gives me peace of mind when I'm on the go. 3. **User-friendly Setup**: Setting up the T7 was a breeze. It was recognized instantly by both my Windows and Mac systems, and I didn't need to deal with any complicated installations or formatting. 4. **Security Features**: I appreciate the built-in password protection and AES 256-bit encryption. It adds an extra layer of security for my sensitive data, which is essential in today’s digital world. 5. **Versatile Compatibility**: The T7 works seamlessly across various devices, including PCs, Macs, and even gaming consoles. It’s perfect for storing games, media, and important files without worrying about running out of space. Overall, the Samsung T7 1TB External SSD is a fantastic investment for anyone looking for speed, portability, and reliability. Highly recommended!

    Have only had for a short time, but it has so far been fast and reliable. While transferring larger amount of files (~100 GB at a time), it was tending to run hot, but cooled off almost immediately after the transfer was complete. It is as small and compact as I could have asked for. High quality product.

    Two cables; very fast transfer

    The package comes with both a USB-A-to-USB-C cable and a USB-C-to-USB-C cable, just so you know. I was quite happy with the addition of both cables. I have had issues with USB-C in the past but so far the C-to-C cable works super fast and has given me no problems (so I haven't even had to use the other cable, yet, but I'm glad I have it). It can get quite hot, so make sure it's propped up on something or you pause frequently between file transfers. And, so far, I've only had it disappear and not show up in my file folders once, after going idle. Overall, just a bump up to a better experience.
