Works great! Quick write & transfer speeds! I upgraded to a 4tb external drive from a 2tb… I needs tons of space and like to keep the drives as empty as possible in my computers for peak performance and overall longevity. My 2tb WD Black external drive was full. It didn’t take very long to transfer the data between them, and it all made it out intact.

Review - Samsung T7 4TB External USB 3.2 HD

The Samsung T7 4TB External USB 3.2 Portable hard drive is both compact and durable. It seemed an excellent choice for use as a backup drive for my ancient 2012 white MacBook, which I primarily use for writing. It's important to own a solid backup drive so as to avoid information loss, and better still, I was fortunate to get it at a sale price

I'm used to the very bulky external hard drives, this is slim, compact and well-traveled. the transfer speed for large files is also a nice factor, the C port usage with the new Lenovo i have ties in well for space saving style. Hands Down better that the Bulky 6T Seagate i use.

This thing is amazing. Small enough to fit in your pocket, holds 4TB of data from movies, music, files and more! I bought it because I purchased a new laptop and wanted to keep my files from the old computer. I transferred 800MB to this drive and still have plenty of room. With it being a solid state drive it was done in very little time!

This is a great unit. It's fast and 4GB is really lots of storage. My USB drive backups are done in much less than half the time compared to my WD Easystore drives, and it's portable as can be. I'll get another one when it's on sale again.

I love this storage device! The size is very small and portable. Seems like a solid build, it has an aluminum shell. Samsung supplies two cables, one for usb c to usb c and the other from usb c to usb. Ready to plug and play with either connection. Plenty fast read and write speed.

Great portable SSD & Large Capacity

Great to have this backup, which is so small / portable. I have had good experiences with Best Buy and this external SSD. I have purchased several for work, to hold all of my editing projects.
SSD's just cost more, but am assuming that the price will come down on this. I have had a 2 HDD's give up the ghost recently. That 'death rattle' sound of moving parts clinking against each other is ominous and enough for me to replace all of my externals, not recalling how old they were. It is worth the money now for me, as I spent days trying to recover, alas unsuccessfully.

Using as replacement of internal startup drive on my iMac 27, three months conclusion is…….speeds up Lightroom quite a bit compared to internal original. Gets quite hot but less the 55C……how long it lasts is another question.

Excellent. Tiny size. Super portable. Don't even need a case, just put it in my pocket. Very fast too. Worth the expense, which is high considering the storage size

Purchased new when it was on sale. The drive is more than fast enough for backups, since I am not using as a primary boot/data drive. Small and light and USB A 3.1 to C gives about 3 GB transfer rate, fast enough for it's write function and better than the spinning hard drive I had for a backup before.
