ssd
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.so far so good, it does get a little hotter than i expected it to, but i guess that is the rubber coating

So far, so good.
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This one is better than the regular T7. The speed is a very subtle improvement, but it’s more about the build quality. It’s a much sturdier version of the previous.

Great deal when on sale.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.As good or better than the original T7. But the rubbery coating makes it less slippery and durable. Works great for my use as external PS4/5 extended storage.

Posted .HappyCistomer:
While it’s great to hear that you’re loving the performance of your T7 Shield SSD, I’m very sorry to hear of the difficulties you experienced with connecting to your Motorola phone.
The SSD might be formatted in NTFS or exFAT, which some Motorola phones cannot read. Please reformat the SSD to exFAT (most compatible with Android) using your computer. Older or budget Motorola phones may not support external SSDs. Please check if your phone supports USB OTG and external storage mounting. Also, be sure to use a USB-C to USB-C cable that supports USB 3.1 Gen 2 or higher.
Should you need further assistance or have questions, please contact Samsung Memory Support.

1/2 volumes experiences extensive disk read/write
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I got two of these recently. One works perfect. The other does not. The one that works well tends to accept writes at a rate of 420-550 MB/s. I do large scale copies volume to volume for backup purposes. The good disk does not create errors in the event viewer log. The bad volume pollutes the event logs with event ID 153 Disk Timeout errors. It generated 296 of them in the space of an hour. And speed slowed to 0 bytes/second for multiple seconds at a time. i.e. It hung while the O/S recovered from the i/o timeout. I then had to struggle with getting data off the disk for multiple hours as it had, before I detected the issue, been a sole source of files while I was doing a migration. If both disks had the same problem it would have been a 1 star rating. The other disk does work well.
