Good for backing up the computer.
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This product was recommended by my son who is a computer repair technician. It is still performing as it should.
I would recommend this to a friend Using with Xbox One
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I'm impressed. Not only can I save more games to the hard drive, but load times have also decreased. I wish I would've purchased one of these sooner. The product was smaller than I expected, and is easily hidden behind the console where it plugs in via USB. So, the color doesn't really matter unless you need more than one, but I must say the blue paint is nice. Honestly, I will probably invest in at least one more of these for another Xbox in the house. It needs it. I recommend to anyone looking into purchasing external memory.

Good but not that good
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought the blue one with 500GB storage. The design is not noteworthy. It’s just simple as a ssd. The speed is not as advertised as over 1000mb/s. My laptop is the latest razer blade and I connected with thunder bolt 3 port. But the speed is still limited to 200mb/s. It’s actually enough for my daily use....

Posted .Bruce:
Thank you for purchasing the Samsung T7 Portable SSD and for your review. I am sorry to hear that you are not completely happy with the performance speeds.
The maximum transfer speed that can be achieved by the T7 is 1,050MB/s on a PC that supports USB 3.2 Gen2, UASP mode, but the speed may vary depending on the user‘s PC environment and the types of data being transferred. Please look to the details below for possible causes (and solutions), if you think your T7 is under performing.
Scenario 1 (PC Environment)
Your PC's USB Type C Port must support USB 3.2 Gen 2 (10Gbps) in order to fully utilize the speed of the T7. USB 3.0 Gen.1, USB 3.1 Gen 1. USB 3.2 Gen.1 are restricted to 5Gbs speeds any may be the bottleneck to the performance of your T7.
Scenario 2 (Cable)
Using other cables besides the enclosed cable that comes with the T7 may cause performance degradation. Due to the varying internal resistance and maximum allowable current of other the cable types that does not come officially with the T7.
Scenario 3 (Dynamic Thermal Guard, DTG)
The T7 is designed to activate the DTG (Dynamic Thermal Guard) when the product reaches a its threshold temperature due to prolonged data transfers and usage. The smartly activated DTG function prevents the product from overheating and automatically slows down providing it a cool off period. The DTG technology enhances safety and reliability by preventing the product from reaching an excessively high temperature.
Should you need further assistance, please contact Samsung Customer Support directly so that we can better investigate your speed issue and assist you towards a resolution.
