    I am using the Samsung T7 Shield 4TB for my Time Machine Backup. It works perfectly. It is large enough that it should provide adequate space for the foreseeable future. Is very quick when I review my backups. Can't ask for more.

    Great pricing on this hard drive… was going with the 1tb but the sale price on the 2tb was too good to pass up! This drive works great for video recording and for archiving!

    These are absolutely wonderful rock solid external backup drives. The USB 3.2 Gen 2 USB connection is super fast and overall the rugged IP 65 based coding on it can really put this thing through the wringer. I needed something that could drop fall and IUSB connection is super fast and overall the rugged IP 65 based coding on it can really put this thing through the ringer. I needed something that could drop fall and I wouldn’t have to worry about it. This works just fine for back ups.

    I bought two T7 Shields to store the multitude of photos I took on a road trip. The great thing about them is that I can toss them in a bag when I pack. They aren't delicate like a hard disk drive. As a bonus, they are fast compared to an HDD.

    As a professional wedding photographer it is so important to have people’s images very well-secured & having switched from another brand that has become notorious for malfunctioning I’ve been so so happy with this product as I wrapped up wedding season and other sessions. Peace of mind is everything when it comes to storage & I couldn’t be more a fan of this external hard drive!

    Not to small and not big at all. Easy to carry its small enough to never be in the way and big enough for easy access. Cant say much about the rugged part, its something ill always try not to drop but just in case right?
