    I needed a faster ssd for my M1 MacBook. This thing is speedy on data transfers and surprisingly small. I edit my photos directly from this drive, which frees up space on my computer.

    This is a very fast drive at a reasonable price. I used it connected to a TB3 dock (Caldigit) connected to a mac and store my photo library on it for editing. It’s small and robust, though I haven’t tested that out.

    Great SSD!! Inexpensive and fast! This is a cheap and great way to expand storage without paying for internal SSD upgrades (Apple).

    The T5 drives were already amazing, now with the T7 you get the increased speeds of USB 3.1 Gen 2. For the price, to have an extremely portable SSD capable of handling 4K Raw video editing, you really cant go wrong.

    I purchased this for the Sentry mode and dash cam in my Tesla. It is plug and play and perfect for what I need. The storage is lightning quick to get into and view dash cam footage and alarm events. Excellent product.

    Compact & Light, Good Transfer Rate, Encryption

    This small and lightweight drive comes with cables for both USB-A and USB-C. Data transfer rates are pretty decent. I like that the drive comes with built-in encryption, which in my opinion is better than Bitlocker. When you plug in the drive for the first time on any computer, the only files readable are the drive are the encryption installers. Run the installer for the first-time setup, and then whenever you plug in the drive, it asks for your password before your files are visible. Once connected, the drive updates with the amount of available space.

    XBOX Slim

    If you are using this for the XBOX to make your games run faster then you might need to change from energy saving mode to instant startup on your console settings for it to recognize it on startup without having to unplug it then plug it back in. Then it worked for me after 4 long days of non-normalcy. Overall i am happy my games load faster [after transferring the games] and instant mode is a game changer [not having to wait 30 seconds on the green screen].. im on the xbox slim. I dont think the X or higher runs any slower than this and i heard X series doesnt compat with this card unless the games on it are xbox one or older. Oh and update it on your PC because i heard games crash if you dont. Also it might void your xbox warranty?

    Question before i buy...

    with its encryption capabilities, can it auto encrypt all my messages so that i dont have to do it manually? On the dark web, for instance, or when communicating privately?

    I'm using this for large file storage and it works as advertised. Also included two different types of connector cables so adding a star for that! Only time will tell if it'll last but so far, so good. The only thing I wish it had was a case but it's so small that maybe Samsung figured that most people wouldn't use it. Other than that I'm happy so far.

    Excellent but i needed to get my own USB connection and adapter for my MacBook Air since it wouldn’t connect with any other adapter. I thought it would be more updated.
