    Works well with both my Mac and Windows pc. It’s much smaller than any of the portable hard drives I’ve had in the past. I appreciate that it came with both usb A and C cables, making it compatible with any device.

    Best SSD on the market! I have two of these and they are so fast. They come with both USB and USBC connectors. I have that I run Windows 10 off of on BootCamp works like a charm. No matter how long I leave these ssd drives plugged in, they don't make a sound and don't even get warm. This drive tends to go on sale often. Highlighy recommended!

    Silent, "invisible" storage for my iMac. I use this to house most of my data, photos, programs, etc. in an attempt to keep the internal storage as free as possible. Works even better than I had hoped. No lagging, not even noticeable! Plug it in and forget about it. Stays cool and runs like a champ. I highly recommend this little powerhouse!

    I had a mechanical drive going bad in my laptop and it was so bad the laptop was almost unusable. I cloned it to this drive and then removed the old drive and replaced it with this. It's like a new laptop now. So glad I did this.

    I purchased this for my new iMac using one of the USBC/Thunderbolt ports for connectivity. I'm using it as a IMovie and MAC Data drive in general and the speeds are as recommended. Bottle necks do not exist and offer a great expansion option for your IMAC without having to pay for high cost upgrades directly from Apple. I would highly reocmmend!

    I purchased this external hard drive after hearings such good things from relatives who already have it. So far, I have had no issues but did have to call Samsung customer support to answer a few questions, and they were a great help. Good support and product.

    hardly takes up any room in my laptop bag while providing MASSIVE storage. When transferring 4K footage to my editing laptop, it becomes very warm, but nothing alarming. Fast startup times and, more critically, lightning-quick copy times. I adore the drive!

    Does the job, is 2 TB unlike other external memories. A bit gimmicky when it comes to locking it, but set a password for it when you connect it and thatll be the main storage you work with.

    Very portable and slim. Cable easily broken. Better to use another usbc cable that doesn’t break as easily
