    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 hard drive for the price. Super fast read/write speeds and very reliable. I have several of these and haven't been disappointed. Good price considering SSD prices but cheaper would be better.

    I use Samsung SSDs frequently as a filmmaker. They are compact and easy to take on the road; I can copy over footage quickly; and editing videos with them is fast and reliable.

    Overall, I really like it. It is easy to setup & easy to use. And it is pretty fast. 1 thing that would make it even better would be if it came with a way to Synch so that Additions or Modifications to the original source (my PC) would be automatically ID'd and applied the External Drive. Instead of my having to Copy ALL or ask myself, "Now, What did I actually do today? Did I create or edit any Word docs today, etc.?

    Very compact and sturdy. Comes with Samsung software called Magician to protect manage the contents of the drive. More user friendly and good interface. Transfer speeds are really amazing. Compatible with both my laptop and IPad. Definitely worth for the price and reliability.

    I am someone who is careful of my data/photographs and use external devices as backup for my Computer and data needs. This drive is an SSD .. small, compact, quiet -- and it does work (I did accomplish my backup of data in an appropriate length of time - and it was verified because I always do a random check afterwards, and the files were there and usable. All in all, I'm pleased so far (and it's not been that long owned), but I suspect this will be a way for me to rotate inbetween other hard drive backups so that I don't risk losing the files I have created. COST was also appropriate - I purchased while on sale on Best Buy and it was comparable to (slightly higher) than traditional HDD Drives. (NOTE -- I can't verify the water resistance factor -- I'm not yet ready to dunk hard drives into water to prove that!)

    Convenience would be the key word here. The T7 is lightweight and very durable. It's great for backing up files and general storage. The speeds are much faster than expected. I recommend this purchase.

    This drive is fast, compact, and easy to use. It comes with both USB-A and USB-C cables so you can connect it to your system as long as you have an open port. It supports Mac and Windows and was pretty much just plug and play.

    So far, this has worked great!! I’ve had it a month now, it’s travelled with me to Europe annd back, and it does exactly what I expect it to - I store all my photos on it and edit them on my laptop. It’s fast, small, and works great!

    Not an awful lot to say. After my "competitor brand" external HD began showing signs of failing I quickly ran out and got another Samsung. They also came highly recommended by my computer repairman who said he never gets anyone in the shop for problems with their Samsung drives.

    It works great for me. I am not one that gets real technical about measuring speeds. All I know is it works faster than other drives I have. On sale it was a great price for a 2TB, others were much higher in price. Love the outer shell for durability in the event I need to take it with me and accidentally drop it.
