    If you are buying this for use on a Mac please don't. The T7 doesn't play nice with my iMac or Macbook pro. Once you finally get what think you want loaded on, you are then unable to erase the drive and start over. Using the Utilities on a Mac will not erase the drive. This doesn't happen on the T5 drives. I would return the T9 but can't as I can not erase my data. This is NOT a solution for Apple computers. The T9 is fast which is good.

    If i could give zero stars i would. Selling a prodct that can get bricked from its own software when they are as expensive as they are now is awful. Do better samsung. Dont buy this or ANY samsung ssd ever. Be warned.

    Its good but,., Nothing impressive and not a huge leap from the T5 series as far as performance goes. It stays a little cooler than older models but most likely your device doesn't have usb 3.2 gen 2 ports so you won't see max potential... skip this and go NVME for the same price or cheaper.
