||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This portable SSD works well, it's fast and does not get all that hot. I use it to record video and it's doing that perfectly.
I would recommend this to a friendSpeeds dont match.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Speeds dont match what is quoted. I am using this on a M1 Macbook air with an older anker usb c dongle (2018-2019). I was transferring some pretty big files from an SD card to this SSD. 50gb-150gb worth of data eqch transfer and it was taking 15-20min or more. Not happy about this. Will be contacting samsung

Small and compact
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The Samsung T7 Shield 1 TB External SSD Drive is a small, compact easy to carry external hard drive that provides much needed storage expansion in many small and light laptops as well as a great desktop solution for people needing additional file storage. The T7 shield connects via a USB C port and supports USB 3.2 Gen 2 (10GPS) and utilizes the PCIe NVMe interface. All of this provides a really fast read and write speed. I am using the T7 to stream videos and I have not had any issues with lag whatsoever. I have been extremely happy with the performance of this drive so far. The Samsung T7 is equipped with an IP65 rating for water and dust resistance and is drop resistant for falls up to 3 meters. The Samsung T7 Shield has preinstalled software that is compatible for Windows, IOS and Mac and Android. The software that is included allows you to use the security features of the drive. If you don't want to use these additional features, then the drive is basically plug and play, once your computer recognizes the drive is connected. The drive even has a soft touch feel that adds a premium feel to this small drive, which fits easily in your pocket or will take up very little room in a computer bag. I am very pleased with the T7 Shield and I find myself taking it everywhere with me when I am using my laptop for personal use and for business. I happily recommend this drive to anyone looking to increase storage capacity.
I would recommend this to a friendSamsung T7 Shield external drive
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.1st purchase of an external drive. Good price, quick shipping, excellent quality and seems to work flawlessly. If I were to have any complaint it is the lack of any type of instructions with the unit, the Samsung tutorials lack dept on use. For me a friend gave me tips and steam (gaming platform) automatically ask about where to download the items I needed the drive for. If instructions were included everything would be 5 star.

||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This SSD is fast and I don't worry if I accidentally bump it, as has happened with hard drive.
I would recommend this to a friendGood but complicated
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Its hard to connect and you need to download an app
I would recommend this to a friendReliable!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Works as designed and definitely a good price! I especially like the rugged exterior.
I would recommend this to a friendCable Easily Detaches From Drive
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I like the color and rubberized design however it has a poor design around where the USB C cable attaches and doesn't make a firm connection. As a result I've had it detach even when being cautious when moving it knowing how poor the connection is.

Great drive
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This drive does everything I need to do. I would definitely buy again.
I would recommend this to a friendFast and durable
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Fast drive, use for backups and only takes minutes every time
I would recommend this to a friendThe perfect portable drive
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is the nicest all around drive I have owned. The drive is super fast with SSD internal drive. The looks are also very attractive and the drive is rugged. Samsung thoughtfully packed this with different cables making it useful for more than just laptops. There is software to install for Mac and PC, but also works flawlessly for my iPad Pro with the USB-C cable. With it being solid state, it is completely noiseless and doesn’t become hot with ongoing use, even with intensive reads and writes. Most of my other drives are considerably larger and not nearly as portable. With multiple laptops, this is the one that I carry with me for every occasion. While this might not seem so important, I’m writing this as I stand in line at an airport with a very heavy backpack. The weight and size of the drive matters, especially when traveling. As SSD drives become less expansive, these will become the standard for portable storage. Samsung always provides top of the line products and this is no exception.

||Posted . Owned for 6 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great item. It does what I bought it for. I have not had it long enough to see how well it will perform.
I would recommend this to a friendSticky slimy "shield"
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I've bought a couple Samsung external drives in the T-series and been very happy. Needed another one and this one was available (in spite of Best Buy's generally terrible availability issues), so I grabbed it. Stay away if you don't like that slimy rubbery feeling of dense rubber/silicon (?). It feels oily and smells like petroleum. And I'm sure in about 2 years it's going to have that sticky rubbery texture with clotted dust going on. Yuck. Missed my return window or I would have taken it back.

Failing after barely any use compared to others
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Drive is failing after just 18 months of infrequent use, the drive sitting on the desk and hardly handled, and only 780GB written to it. Really disappointed. The drive cannot complete a Samsung Magician diagnostic scan which fails to complete
