    A rugged little drive 1/3 the size of my phone that's hooked up to a usb port on my desktop. IT's functioning as a backup drive for my photos currently. I copied a lot of info in a very short time, and it's hungry for a lot more. It looks good, and has a feel like it's very well protected. I would definitely buy this again.

    Don’t drop this down an elevator shaft or anything like that, but this ssd is actually built pretty sturdy, and it’s meant for field use, and it’s great for local file migrations for the media specialist on the go, or for any technician on a site visit that needs to make larger local data transfers.

    The T7 Shield delivered a fast data transfer, which is beneficial when transferring image files from 2006 to current. The T7 Shield is light weight and small enough to quickly take it on the go. The water and dust resistant was the reason I purchased this device, I am a careful individual, but the peace of mind was worth it.

    Fantastic little drive for Time Machine backups. Some people say it's a waste of money to buy an SSD for that purpose, but the noise of my old external HDD and the hang time on my iMac when the HHD was waking/spinning up to do a backup were SO annoying and frustrating. This Samsung SSD completed the first backup of about 2TB in less than an hour! Subsequent incremental backups are speedy and silent, and I don't notice any hang time at all. I followed the advice I read in several comments about buying a high-speed data cable to make sure I got the maximum read/write speeds possible with the drive (I did not test the speed with the original cable, so can't comment on that). So over all, kind of pricey, yes—but on sale and for the sake of my sanity, SO worth it.

    I am in the process of gathering and organizing a boat load of Media. I purchased two of these 2 TB drives. I have always been a fan of Samsung drives=, but these T7 drives are amazing. Small, easy to carry. They are lightning fast as far a data transfer, which has made this project much easier and faster. If you are looking for a solid SSD solution, you will not go wrong here.

    Great for photographers! I've been using these for years no - I had been previously using western digital externals and had noting but issues and failures. This is made so well, my puppy has gotten ahold of of these last year and chewed it up and it still worked fine somehow!

    Don't know what some reviews were missing, but I plugged this into my new computer and was able to back up every piece of critical data with the simple right click/copy/paste function in reasonable time. I had 1.5 TB of data, pictures, docs, pdf's & music. No problem. Highly Recomend.
