    This small external hard drive is EVERYTHING!!! I take it where ever I go and it does not add any extra weight to my bag, which already has enough in it. It's basically quick plug and play. Highly recommend it.

    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.

    Amazingly thin and small — about the size of a credit card — this workhorse can hold a *ton* of data. I mean, like, crazy amounts.

    Samsung SSDs are very reliable. I have had several for 500GB -2TB both T5 and T7. They stay pretty cool, are fast. You will never want to use a HDD after using an SSD.

    Love it. Using as an external on my PS5 for all of my older PS4 games. Easy to setup and lightning fast. USB-C is also a big plus if you’re using this guy for content creation, the read/write speeds are amazing.

    The speed is amazing and it's so small. It's about the size of a credit card and about 1/4" thick. Using a c cable 4gig movies transfer in about 30sec instead of 15 min.

    The USB 3.2 standard along with the SSD technology provides quick transfers. You have a whopping 2TB of storage space & I expect great reliability being an SSD storage device. It's about the size of a credit card
