Love this drive
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I only edit off of SSD’s so glad they are coming down in price. Now they just need to make them in 10-20tb for a reasonable price just stay away from Western Digital. Over a decade i’ve had about 5 western digitals go bad. Never had a samsun or g drive go bad. Also i edit in 8k so ssd is mandatory.
I would recommend this to a friendYour external SSD shows ultra-poor performance
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.In a word, TERRIBLE! Despite the number of times I visited Best Buy and the Geek Squad, no one was able to improve the run time for merely doing a copy-and-paste of my data from my internal SSD (C:\) to this external SSD. In fact, my rotary external Passport drive ran circles (more than 150%) over my subject SSD. I backed up my data onto my rotary drive in about 3 hours, whereas my B/U onto my external SSD took in excess of 8 hours. Even when I tried deleting older versions of my data on the external SSD, it took about 3 hours merely to complete the Calculating phase alone. It was unnerving! This same poor performance happened with an external SSD drive with another brand ... AND, such poor performance occurred on my second laptop that I purchased at the same time as my first laptop. Both of my laptops performed unacceptably with your external SSD. I wish there was an answer, but there does not seem to be any. So I'll be returning my external SSD today. Question: How can copying my data on an internal SSD to an external SSD take longer than when using an external rotary drive??? Baffling! I'd love to hear back from you.

Not worth it
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Really wanted to like this thing…. After rehashing online, turns out that the supplied cable is trash. It wouldn’t even connect and would freeze up my computer until I unplugged it. Changed the cable and I can now at least get it to connect. Transfer speeds are trash as well, no well near the as advertised. I would not recommend it. I gave it 2 stars because it is rugged so if you don’t care about speed and need something to hold up outdoors then should be considered but there’s better options out there.

The 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.
I would recommend this to a friendSlow back up.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The upload of documents are mo faster than hard drives. I have only used it when backing up Quicken data. Not eorth the price.
