    Quick Transfer speeds and a drop resistance of 2 meters and no major manufacturing issues makes it the ideal reliable ssd. especially if you're clumsy like me. I did get mine on sale, and except for a little dust inside the package it seemed in excellent condition.

    Had it for just over a year. For the price it appears durable and fast. Comes with both a USB-C to USB-C cord and an USB-A to USB-C cord. Would like to see one with even more capacity than 4TB

    So this isna great product. It small, lightweight and has a large space. The price was very reasonable for the size and it processes information quickly. I demoed this guy in Chicago at a training session for my job and had to have one. My only critique is that BBY did not offer a warranty on it. We all know things happen and I like to ease of mind knowing I have a warranty to cover any unforseen issues. I pay by the yr so EVERYTHING I purchase at BBY is covered. I feel like the ball was dropped in this sense. This is the ONLY reason i didnt give 5 stars.

    Sturdy, but cable needs to be more flexible.

    I only use it in my vehicle to capture video. It has held up well with being next to keys and other items in a central storage area, but the cable should be redesigned in my opinion, because the bend inside the storage area has caused it to expose the metal braid around the connector over the last two years. The metal was exposed before the two-year mark and the storage unit is positioned and held in place with a band, but the connector goes out at a 45-degree angle up and then the cable needs to come back down and wrap around the storage area to make it back to the top of the unit. It is robust and deals with a lot of bouncing even on trail rides and such, so I would buy it again.

    Overall, the SSD was very easy to operate and work with. It worked as a backup for my computer perfectly. It was smaller than I expected, but it fits in the case I bought with all of its components easily. I also appreciate that it has texture--it really helps it be less slippery

    Best Portable SSD

    I purchased this to replace an older style portable HD and provide me more assurance my information would be safe and not get stranded when the old drive (not an SSD) decided to stop functioning. I couldn't be happier with the durability, speed, and compact nature of this device. Samsung memory devices have always performed well for me and I will always use them when possible.

    This is a good value. The transfer speed is really fast and it's really quite small. I've not tested out it's "rugged" features heavily but you can stick it in a backpack and not worry that it'll get damaged. Someone I know that uses MacOS said it was difficult to format, but I cannot confirm or deny that. I use a Windows machine and it works just fine right out the box.

    Good backup storage if paired with another backup

    So far so good. Bought this as a replacement hard drive when my 5-6 yr one failed. Luckily the IT group I took the old one to was able to recover my original files because it had a disk in it. This Samsung one does not as a heads up. While it's more stable and less likely to fail overall, when it does fail, the data will unlikely be recoverable. So it's best to have backup in a few places like an online/cloud, an SSD, and/or a secondary hard drive. Especially if the files are important. That's the advice the IT Guys gave me. It's good advice so I'm passing it along. The SSD itself feels super light, very portable, has a nice grippy texture. Plug and play.

    It is small in size and ample in space. Worry-free for its sturdy design. Now it is a must to bring for work and play. You may not need it as a regular person working in an office but it is hard to resist thinking of the price and durability. If not a heavy user for videos or photos, the 2TB might be a better choice.
