    This drive is excellent with great read and write speeds. I do recommend using a different usb 3.2 cable to get a higher consistent drive speed.

    Works well with my MBP 14. It is very rugged and does not heat up. I've never had heat or transfer issues with large files.

    It's a good external hard drive. It is very fast and rugged. The only downside is that it is thicker than the standard Samsung T7.

    I bought this version of the Samsung T7 to store dashcam video and Sentry Mode incident video on my new Tesla. Video takes up a lot of storage. It’s a good price. We’ll see how well it holds up.

    I purchased this to store my Lightroom photos as my Mac Mini has minimal storage. I velcro’d this thing to my studio display and that’s all I needed.

    Sturdy, efficient, a life saver. Worth the money and the rigid one is the way to go. The connection cable is reliable and you’ll never not feel confident with this drive.

    Great product. Samsung is always my go to for quality solid state drives. Best Buy always has closely competitive pricing so, I'm sure I'll buy another one soon.
