    Fast, but gets really hot

    Was getting really hot during file transfers compared to my T5, which was concerning.. Would recommend if you need something rugged - the water resistant feature is amazing. But if using for everyday use by a laptop, then the regular T7 is probably better.

    Samsung T7 Shield external drive

    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.

    Not User Friendly

    Not as user friendly as the salesperson described. It's truly NOT a plug and play. In order to use this product, you will need to have some tech skills. Not for the everyday user that's expecting the product to backup your files just by plugging it in.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend
