    I originally got it because i was told it could be formatted to replace an hdd my old pc had in it. I ended up going a different route. Its a good external storge. I saved an entire college course worth of lecture videos the textbook etc and all years worth of pictures to clear out my cloud storage

    Stopped working properly just after a year of moderate use. Samsung software (Magician) doesn't recognize it most of the time and when it does, reports it healthy. Saving files to it is extremely slow if it works at all and when it does slowly start saving, it becomes very warm to the touch. This is not a quality device and I strongly advise anyone considering an external SSD NOT to buy Samsung.

    Setup is fast and easy. The T7 2TB is well-suited for automated, scheduled backups of one's desktop or laptop. (I'm currently using Macrium Reflect 7 software, which just completed a nightly incremental backup. Process is so quick that I intend to use nightly full backups.) Read and write speeds are very decent--as long as you are connecting with quality USB 3.1 gen 2 cables. Samsung-supplied cables work well, albeit are very short. Please avoid using cheap USB 2.0 bargain-basement cables. They will pass data at fractional speeds and hugely compromise performance.

    Great fast ssd for being very small in size. Currently using it as external storage on a ps4. Travel times are noticeably shorter. Highly recommend.
