    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.

    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.

    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!

    It work great. I use it for recording and it is reliable portable hardrive I ever use so far. Small and fast writing speed for videos I ever own so far. No problems or any other issues at all. Plug and use right away. I have hyperdeck for personal videos editing and this really helps.

    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

    Good portable SSD hard drive for the price with decent memory storage. I chose Samsung because of their reputation for making the best hard drives on the market. I chose this particular model because of it’s compact size & simple design & it also featured a USB-C port which helped make it thoroughly up to date feature & performance wise.

    Best external drive I’ve bought. Smaller than I thought, yet very powerful. Speaking of storage, it can store up to 2TB digitally. And physically, I can fit all that in my pocket.

    It was super quick to set up for both me and a friend who isn't the most tech-savvy. I am using one of these to run my iOS on a 27" iMac (the computer's internal drive is an HDD, which was making it incredibly slow to start), and while it did take a little time to convert it to the correct format for that, it has been working like a dream ever since.

    Great Portable Storage & Backup Solution

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

    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.

    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.
