Customer Ratings & Reviews

I bought this to save space on my laptop while working with VM's. Total game changer. Will be getting a larger capacity next but this has been a godsend.

Got this to use with my macbook air M1, and has worked perfectly fine so far. Simple plug and play and didn't have to format it to be used. Definitely faster than the previous ones I have had, but then again I haven't bought too many, so don't go by my review.

The Samsung T7 SSD has proven to be fast and reliable for working with large amounts of data. The USB-C connection allow for fast data transfer, and I am not seeing any lag while working from the drive. The small size is convenient, too.

Bought one of these last year and I love it!!! Easy to set up, fast, and portable! Would've given 5⭐️ if it wasn't me than double the price i paid last year!

It's great, it's small and compact, the speed is pretty fast for read & write.

This is a super fast SSD! Great quality, but the price is a bit high. I use this drive to store my steam games on. I’ve had zero lag while running games directly from this drive. If you’re getting low on storage this drive will satisfy that need.

This thing is awesome! I use this to back up so many things. I've plugged it into my phone, laptop and even my PS5 to back up save data with no issues.

Good, but a little slow. Temperature stays cool, needs longer cord.

Well made, sturdy external drive. Very fast 3.2 data transfer if your computer has a lightening usb port or equivalent. Very Useful for cloning your hard drive or ssd drive for the ultimate backup.

This thing is the perfect compact data backup for your laptop, tablet, and phone. If it doesn't automatically work on your device, the Best Buy team are ON IT, and it's so appreciated.

Quite fast for an external USB drive! Nice value for storage. I do use this for my PS5, it’s not fast enough to play modern games, but it most certainly works well for storage of digital PS4 games and PS5 for easy transfer to console storage.

I like the compact sleek look of this drive. Never had a problem with these samsung SSDs. They are fast and reliable.

I love this little T7 portable drive. Especially now that prices have gone down a good bit with time/newer models. It is FAST. No doubt about that. A caveat: I've had the T1, T5, and now the T7. Each one has had problems with it's own software and my Mac computers. The older versions never did get proper updates to make the encryption/passwords work well and then Samsung suggested I had to upgrade the drive to get things to work. Since I just got the new M1 Mac, the newest version won't work with Silicone chips either, including in Intel with Rosetta 2. My solution? I just formatted it all the way as an APFS drive and use it as a normal non-encrypted external storage drive. For me, that's fine. I didn't buy it for the software and encryption, I bought it as a fast drive to backup my mac with Time Machine and files. For that reason, I highly recommend it.

The best brand. Best quality. Best reliability. I use it for backup.

This drive is fantastic! Live the speed and size of it. Cannot get another SSD worth thisbsize thats more worth it. I have two 2TB and they work amazing. Backing up work was a drag before. Now its weirdly kind of fun.

Samsung created a slightly thicker than credit card size backup SSD hard drive that ran high speed on phone and computer. It required to install the Samsung SSD version 1 app on Android phone. I wish I had bought 2.

With usb c you do get the advertised speeds. Bought it for backing up my assignments.

Got this for my new MacBook, I set up two partions, one for Time Machine and one for storage. Does what it's suppose to. No complaints! It's small, I can just attach it to the front of my MacBook!

I use this drive to backup my main computer mainly for pictures. During the initial backup it got warm but nothing to be worried about. It is fast when hooked up to the correct USB connection.

Serves its purpose well as an external diagnostic/utility drive for computer maintenance. Not as fast as external NVMe SSDs, but plenty fast for basic file backup or diagnostic utility applications. Also doesn't run nearly as hot as NVMe SSDs during high read/write scenarios.
