I have several of these and have been using them for years. Small, fast, reliable. Indispensable.

The most durable and reliable hard drive. I use this for my photography business and swear by them. Super durable and small and compact perfect for traveling. I recommend this for any photographer new or experienced.

My favorite external hard drives! Small and easy to transport when I'm on the go, and I've dropped a few of them and they've all survived the drop too (though I don't recommend dropping them, lol). I use them to store high-res JPEGs and RAW images and they work great in combination with my Macbook Pro.

I really love this external hard drive! It came with 2 connector cords, one for a regular USB-A and one for a USB-C. It will be really helpful to have options depending on my computer needs. It has worked really well so far, and I love how spacious it is! It is also very small and easy to transport. It fits in the palm of my hand!

When bench testing, the drive read & wrote at advertised speeds using MacBook Air M4. Under sustained, heavy loads, the drive gets warm, but never did it get too hot to comfortably touch. Note that I did not install the included software. I formatted it for use with MacOS Time Machine and it works fine.
The price at Best Buy was very competitive. Shipping was nearly instantaneous.
One odd thing is that the manual never mentions when the LED should be illuminated, flashing or off. Occasionally, when I know it is writing or reading, there is no light or the light is solid. Even when the computer is off, sometimes the LED is lit. Beats me!

This drive is very fast and the build quality is great. I would recommend this to anyone looking for a small portable SSD solution. It's fast enough for me to work on Final Cut Pro projects right from the drive without any performance issues. I had a T5 drive previously and this is even thinner with better performance.

Excellent. Tiny size. Super portable. Don't even need a case, just put it in my pocket. Very fast too. Worth the expense, which is high considering the storage size

As far as I can see, there are no problems with this product. I do audio recording with logic pro x. It’s fast and very reliable. I had returned a sandisc SSD because i got several HDD error messages. No problems with this one!

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.

This item gave me more space for my pc. I would transfer my important files on there as I make the folder for it. Easy access to my files on there. Definitely recommend it.

Size is great, just wish SSD pricing would come down like the rest of storage has. This is really small and portable, but it feels like it should be treated very delicately to me. Speed is fast and appreciate having a spare 2TB with my internal 1TB SSD since editing videos takes up so much space.

This SSD works flawlessly to provide extra storage that you can keep connected to your computer, as a portable device for transferring data, or as a means to backup files on your system. It has fast data transfer rates with a USB 3.0 port or higher, and it comes out of the box exFAT formatted and ready to be used with multiple operating systems. It does get very warm (but not hot) during prolonged writing of tens of gigabytes of data. I have left mine inside my computer case through an internal USB port easily added with a PCI-e card for extra storage. A more permanent and slightly more expensive alternative for inside your computer if you have the slots available is the Samsung 970 EVO+ 1TB SSD when coupled with a PCLe SSDE to PCI-e adapter card.

Unit is small, solid feeling, made of aluminum.
In typical Samsung fashion the speeds are exactly as advertised.
Easily sustains reads and writes above 1GB/s
Cable goes in easy, but isn't loose.
Unit is small and easy to misplace.
You really can't go wrong with a Samsung SSD

Love the functionality of a super fast SSD Its worked flawlessly since I purchased it. Ive been saving all my photos on it and its not even 1/2 full so far. Great buy if your computer didn't come with enough storage.

I have used this for close to 2 years now. It is a great SSD! The speed is very fast. It gets somewhat warm when you are writing a lot of data to the disk but it never has overheated before. The SSD has never disconnected randomly either. I always use Samsung portable SSDs, starting with the original Samsung T5. Always great! I have multiple of these, including their rugged ones, never had any issues.
This review is from Samsung - T7 2TB External USB 3.2 Gen 2 Portable SSD with Hardware Encryption - Metallic Red
I would recommend this to a friend

I purchased my Portable SSD T7 in October 2024 and I am very pleased with it. I haven't had any issues at all, it's very fast and to this day seems very reliable. When I am in the market for another SSD backup drive, I will definitely purchase another Samsung USB Drive.
