    This lightweight equipment is just what I needed to back up everything on my computer including games and keep it safe including, family photos and my virus protection. The durability and color of this product blend right into my desktop's surroundings.

    Love this! Reasonably priced, lots of space, small enough to not be a pain to travel with yet big enough that you don't lose it in the hotel bedding when you travel! Happy with this purchase

    I also bought a high speed thunderbolt cable and, paired with this drive, it makes for a pretty darn fast transfer rate. I formatted in APFS on my M1 MacBook Pro to achieve maximum performance as opposed to compatibility and I'm glad I did. Thinking of buying another one to have more on-site backup of precious files.

    Wonderful device. Copied almost two TB to this drive and and an older T5 (also a great drive) but this one beat the older one easily in speed. Very fast, feels solid, well protected. I have not used any of the samsung software yet, it came formatted as exfat and worked on both my mac and PC.

    [Employee of bestbuy] It came with everything I needed to use the external hard drive. I used it on my trip to Europe for photo shoots. I needed to save all the information just incase the memory cards had issues. After some intensive research, I decided on this product. So far so good.

    Amazing ssd drive. I have it plugged into my kid’s ps5 and it barely heats up with hours of use. Holds a ton of games, and ps4 games can be played directly from this external memory on the PS5

    I got this SSD to work with my PS5. While it will not run PS5 games, it does free up install space on the internal SSD for all the PS4 games, and even provides storage for PS5 games. It is a good way to get more storage for a PS5 knowing that your PS4 installs will go here, freeing up space for PS5 titles.

    The Samsung - T7 Shield 2TB External USB 3.2 Gen 2 Rugged SSD IP65 Water Resistant - (Black) is a very good external hard drive for storing mega documents and photos. Able to retrieve easily and accurately. I would recommend this product.
