    It was on the expensive side but it did the job. Need a portable SSD drive that was reliable and the has met that requirement. It was easy to use and portable. Only have had for 2 months but use it everyday, satisfied so far.

    I bought this for MacBook Time Machine backups and it works great. Way faster than network backup. It gets hot though, I don’t know how that will affect its life long term.

    I love these hard drives. I’ve had issues with other hard drives crashing and stop working all together. I’ve never had one issue with these and love how small and compact they are!

    Perfect for extra game storage on PS4

    My PS4 only has 500gb, which COD uses every bit of. I had an old external HD that I had fortnite installed on, but I would load into games late and have lots of issues with the graphics of the game not loading fast enough. Getting this SSD fixed that, I load into games much faster and have no issues with lag.

    Revived a failing late 2012 iMac

    I was able to restore my late 2012 iMac (bought in 2013) using this beauty. The Fusion Drive (mechanical section) had failed. I loaded iOS to a flash drive using shift-command-R on boot up. Split the Fusion drive. Finally restored my 1.1 TB system to this 2TB external drive using Time Machine (from a 5TB external HD). Now the iMac runs faster and better than new from this external SSD over the speedy USB 3 port.

    It's small, it's fast, it stores data. Nice of Samsung to include two different USB cables.
