    Hey, this is a great little external drive! It is my new traveling companion but I am worried it is so small I might misplace it

    Another Samsung quality drive - but external USB

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    Extremely fast for USB 3.0 drive, but not as fast as nvme SSDs obviously. Fast enough to emergency boot/run OS on my Mac. After bios update I had to reformat - selected MBR and exFat partition - same as default setup for these drives. I like the small size and password protection feature. Drive integrates with Samsung Magician similar to my internal SSDs, but it cannot use all the Magician features on USB. Definitely worth the price, especially on discount at BB, for excellent quality.

    I love this SSD. I was not sure with which to go with because I heard horror stories with other brands. This one was recommended by so many people and when I saw that Best Buy had a small discount at it and I could go pick it up within 10 minutes of my house I immediately purchased it. Best Buy also did a great job with my pickup, took less than 3 minutes.

    Nice high speed storage. Works with my PC as well as my Android smartphones. I use it to transfer files between PC and phones, and as a backup for projects in the works. Excellent speed and easy to use.

    Samsung T7 SSD for 2014 MacBook Pro

    Set up this SSD as an external backup for the internal SSD of a 13" MacBook Pro (mid 2014). The set up for this SSD was straightforward and this SSD works wonderfully. It is very fast. Highly recommended!

    I've been using Samsung SSDs for years with the hardware encryption and they've all been solid. This one is no different and performs well in terms of performance and reliability. I've been using it for about 2 months now with no issues.

    It's the size of a credit card, only a bit thicker. It fits in my purse without adding any weight... I can take my whole desktop with me, without taking the desktop. Just plug it in and copy files from the hard drive on the desktop to this external drive. Highly recommend.

    Great value in a small unit. Easy to set up. Wouldn’t have minded the cord that came with it be a little longer, but other than that excellent.
