Super fast and reliable I use it every day for file transfers and as a backup for my photos it’s amazing

This is a nice, small and relatively fast SSD that comes with some pre-loaded software depending on your computer type and a couple of USB cabes (C and A). I connected it to a Mac and installed the software that was preloaded on the SSD. However, I was unable to use the software as it could never detect that the SSD was connected to my Mac. I tried unplugging/replugging, rebooting my Mac, deleting and reinstalling the software but all my efforts were in vein. Regardless, I wasn't going to be using that software (I don't even know what it does since I was never able to run it) so that didn't bother me too much. I reformatted the SSD using the Mac's Disk Utility program to APFS and ran a Black Magic Speed Test on it. I don't really have much to compare, so I'm not sure if those results are good or just okay or bad. I'm guessing it's pretty good because my subjective sense of the speed of the SSD when dragging files onto it is that it's plenty fast for my purposes. I don't have any hesitation in recommending this SSD.

Great small form and durable SSD. Small enough to fit in your pocket and fast enough to use for video editing with a large capacity. I purchased the 4tb about a month ago and have been very happy with it so far. I would definitely recommend it. I use it between Windows and a Mac OS so I did not format it but, it seems to work perfectly. I found it on sale and the only thing I would say is that it is a little pricey for the larger size drives at full price. This is the only negative I have found so far. I will be interested to see the longevity of the drive.

These hard drives have not given me much trouble at all. Very reliable, very fast, and very low profile. I use them with a lot of my video editing projects and currently own like 5 of these. I highly recommend. Also, the rugged design is great!

For those looking for well built, reliable, compact and fast transfer of data (images), I have found these small external hard drives to be everything you could ask for in an external drive. Built tough, and very durable and reliable. I have 4 and will be buying more. Once they get up to larger capacity SSD I will be buying them as well.

Very durable and never fails. Samsung makes the fastest and most reliable SSD. This is my 14th SSD from Samsung. I only trust the best when it comes to family albums and videos

I love this ssd drive. Not only is it made by Samsung but this thing is rugged. Its got like a rubberized exterior and is easiy to grip. Its small enough to fit in your shirt pocket and its fast when transferring from ssd to ssd. The only drawback is its price. Probably in sn year they will be half the cost and much more afordable.

I've been using it for a couple of weeks and it was plug-and-play, nor formatting needed and it is fast. On first use, it offered that I could set it up with encryption security. I may eventually enable that, but have not done so and cannot comment on that available feature. I am pleased with it as a storage device.

Super fast transfers, does get a little warm but that’s a given when moving a lot files to and from a hard drive. Works super great for my mobile gigs when using it to access my music from my laptop. Probably gonna buy another one to be a backup

The Samsung T7 Shield 1TB is a solid investment for those of us looking for a reliable, fast, and durable external SSD. It's an essential tool for content creators, photographers, videographers, or anyone who needs to transport and protect large volumes of data on the go.

Amazing usb. Fast, durable, can take anywhere. Used in our film productions

This is the second T7 Shield 2TB I purchased, I have used these products every single day since and they are SOLID. I use them for for video editing, I travel with them, I transport them every single day and I have had no issues. Great build. Reliable, fast, and immediately works once plugged into a mac.

THis is a great hard drive. It's fast and offers a lot of storage. Compact drive with a cord that is actually a reasonable length to use the hard drive.

I have 2 of the 2TB and needed one with more storage for backups. This works great and fast.

I bought this to replace my old HDD that somehow got corrupted. This SSD is blazing fast, small, light, and portable. I ripped my bluray and 3d movies to it and plug into my Xbox series X and turned it into a media hub. This is definitely worth buying, I have absolutely NO COMPLAINTS

I bought this external ssd and loaded up macOS on it to boot. My late 2015 iMac computer now runs like a breeze. I would highly recommend this product. Fast and very small and sleek.

Durable SSD, much slimmer than I anticipated. I’m not getting into specifics but transfer speeds are noticeably fast, thing flies. Definitely already dropped it a few times without any signs of wear. Samsung makes great products.

An excellent product from Samsung. It’s not only small and durable, it’s fast and reliable which makes portability and performance noticeable. I would highly recommend this product to everyone who has a need for high performance storage drives while on a budget.

Great storage, transfer speeds is really fast and it’s durable, doesn’t overheat and has an app

So easy to use and great for storage. Durable and lightweight. I like that it has a password protection. Got it on Black Friday sale.
