    Bought this to offload my photos library onto something faster than a mechanical drive and this thing just works. The speeds are pretty good and the Photos App does not struggle like with a mechanical drive.

    I swore by the T5 drives, as I often need to move large files and even ran Windows on my Mac from it and it was as fast as many PCs with a SATA drive. This new one is twice that, and while not quite full NVMe speed, it is still super fast compared to any external drive.

    Although it does have its complications when connected to a Computer or a Console it still works very well and saves you a lot of trouble when it comes to storage, im satisfied, and the price is very much worth it.

    Was tired of having external HDs that are slow and break after a while. This is really fast. Can back up my computer and transfer files so easily. Totally worth the extra cost for it.

    Great little SSD drives, they operate smooth and fast. They perked up my old Inspiron AIO 2320. It is running like new and somewhat faster. They are a little pricey, but, worth it.

    Samsung has been a name brand I have come to trust. This external hard drive is working properly at the moment as a home cloud unit. Decided to have my cloud base at home instead of relying on others. Dropbox snd Google drive are getting expensive.

    I have a Samsung 3D TV so I am a big fan of Samsung products. Before buying this item I never had or used a Solid State Drive. If you have never used one you need to. They are lightening fast. I cannot recommend them enough!
