    This is the best SSD I have ever used for editing videos in Final CuT Pro. It is extremely fast, reliable, minimal, & durable. Just make sure to format it before using it’

    Extra Storage for PS5

    Bought as an external hard drive for my PS5. Works great, no lag or issues. All old PS4 games can play directly from it but PS5 games need to be moved over to the console's harddrive before playing - only drag.

    Doesn't overheat. Read and write speeds are good. I like the IP65 rating so I don't have to buy a case for it. The rubber cover is excellent, and you don't have to worry about accidentally sliding your hard drive off a table.

    Rock solid. I have had many portable platter style drives and this ssd tops them all. Compact, rugged. Can handle some water on it. Boots lightning fast. Great as an external extra drive and finds data faster than any I have owned before.

    This storage device is very fast. I use it to offload the pictures and videos from my camera. It takes just a minute or two to transfer 150GB of data. My older drives this would be an hour + for that amount.

    So far so good, haven't used it much at all since I had to send it out of Best Buy for anything they could recover off my failed external drive. But what I saw so far was great, plus I love Samsung products.

    I use this as a backup of a 2.5TB Pictures folder on a Mac Mini. I tested this disk for a few weeks without any issues and it has been working reliably and quite fast. I do not use any of the Samsung included software.

    I needed a drive to download a bunch of files from cloud storage because I was stopping multiple service subscriptions. the drive works well with macOS (and APFS). most importantly, it is fast and has USB C.

    Samsung t7 shield 2tb external hard drive

    Samsung t7 Shield 2tb. I have over 6000 photos on this external hard drive in 2 years and I've only used 489 gb. Not a full TB yet. And they are all very large size files. I like the grooves in the drive so when you pick it up it doesn't feel like it's going to slide out of your hand. Photos you want to get off your camera and or phones go on this as added back up. Very worth it.

    One of the best SSDs on the market. Great writing speed and overall quality. The fact that it is protected from water, dust and falling is a great addition to confidence if you use it outdoors.

    Perfect for steam gaming. Smaller than expected in size but awesome speed.mortal combat now playable. Did not think an external drive could be this effective- why did I wait. Quick and easy pickup at my car- thanks BB

    Great External Drive - Fast File or Photo Transfer

    Great looking and very fast when moving pictures or files. USBC is very fast and normal USB3 is pretty quick as well, but you can certainly tell the difference. Very happy with the product. Samsung makes excellent internal and external drives.
