    Such a relief to have this now! It transfers my photo and video work so much faster than my previous HDD drive! I should have made this switch years ago but I'm glad I finally did.

    The salesman at Best Buy was very good and knowledgeable. I also spoke with the Best Buy Geek Squad who helped out immensely My T7 drive works really well and As good as expected. My computer is not one of the fastest. and I was worried if the drive would work on it. But it works better than expected.

    I snagged this on sale and it has been an excellent addition for my PC gaming storage needs. Compact, with a nice enclosure to protect against the inevitable accodental drops, with read, write, and transfer speeds that exceeded my expectations. Would def buy again if the need arises

    Works fine. The inreresting thing is that rubber covering usually disturbs good performance in terms of heat management and throttling prevention, but counterintuitively T7 Shield is just better than basic T7! Idk why lmao

    I've only had it for a few weeks but my programs run well on it. Final Cut Pro lags a bit during playback but it usually fixes itself.

    I've been relying on these Samsung drives for a couple of years now. We are a very small organization and these work really well for our offline backup storage. They're fast, inexpensive and from a brand that I have trusted for all types of electronics.

    Awesome drives! I purchase 2-4 new ones every few months for my work. I’ve had zero issues with them, and it’s nice knowing I can stop into any Best Buy and grab them when needed. Highly recommend if you do any kind of photo or video work. Especially great for travel.
