    Roughly the size of a credit card and about a quarter of an inch thick, (0.31”) this SSD has performed with excellent results. I bought this exclusively to use on my PS5 for PS4 game storage. The results were very fast load up times compared to a traditional HDD. Very happy with the form factor, construction and performance of this small device.

    Switched from a LaCie since it was giving me problems. The Read/Write is vastly quicker which makes editing easier and haven’t ran into any issues yet. Definitely my new go to.

    Great SSD drive that is durable and reliable. A must have for those who want to access or save their content in a small and compact drive. USB-C makes this even better.

    I have a half dozen or so of these T7 1TB drives. They are rugged, reliable, and easy to carry. They are certainly better than using portable disk drives for backups.

    I Like the new SSD drives. I know you can get the older style for 1/3 the price, but I carry mine around and I don't worry about a little bump know and then. They are flat & easy to carry in computer bag. Watch the prices, End of the year is a great time to buy. Note the "gen" numbers. They tell you the transfer speed (and thus the price range). 3.2 gen 2 is about the fastest right now. Give it a few months there will be a faster model (but for more money I expect). Be realistic about the speed you really need. Do you move 100gb in one setting? (That is about 100 normal size movies). If yes then go for the best speed. If not maybe save $40 on the slightly slower (but still amazing) model. I usually limit size to 1-TB. You can get up to 4TB, but that is a lot to lose if it ever does give you a problem. I have 10 of these 1TB models. T-5's and T-7's. USB 3.1 gen 1, thru USB 3.2 gen 2. They all work well so far.

    Samsung external SSD

    My laptop only had one SSD drive. The external SSD drive is faster than the second internal hard drive some computers I’ve owned had. Works quite well to store old pictures taken before the cloud was known by the average consumer.

    Purchased this solid state drive for 4K video editing on the go. Most recent project was a wedding and the speed of the ssd made the editing a breeze. I found this ssd to be much faster than others i have used in the past, including my western digital portable ssd. Would definitely recommend to anyone needing fast portable storage on the go for a great value.

    I wasn't sure what to expect when buying this was mostly just looking for a decent external that would hold space and wasn't big in size, I got exactly what I was looking for with no strings attached I'd highly recommend this product

    Very reasonably priced. Small enough to fit in your pocket, but has 1 TB of storage capacity. Great alternative to the "Cloud". Sets up quickly and easily and is ready to go.

    The Samsung T7 is a true space-saver, packing 2TB into its sleek gray design. Transferring files has never been faster or more straightforward. For anyone needing extra storage without the bulk, this is the choice.
