    Fantastic device. Needed something fast and reliable, and this SSD device is well priced. I’m glad it came with USB A and USB C cords.

    Very nice drive. Easy to setup and use with password protection. Works well with Windows 11. One drawback and it may be a lack of understanding on my part but I haven't been able to use 2 of these drives at the same time.

    The Samsung T7 Shield 2TB External USB is a great addition to my home network. It's very light, small, and I keep it next to my router, where i have it attached to my router's USB port. I can access the T7 through my home computer, my Nvidia Shield TV or any other device you want connected to your network. I keep movies, photos and other files needed to share with within in network. Works well for my needs.

    Overall, the SSD was very easy to operate and work with. It worked as a backup for my computer perfectly. It was smaller than I expected, but it fits in the case I bought with all of its components easily. I also appreciate that it has texture--it really helps it be less slippery

    Didnt work for a tesla dashcam but great storage

    I recently purchased the Samsung T7 Shield 2TB External USB 3.2 Gen 2 Rugged SSD IP65 Water Resistant for use as a storage device for my Tesla dashcam. While I ultimately returned the device because it was not suitable for this specific purpose, I did find it to be an excellent product overall. The T7 Shield is very rugged and durable, with an IP65 water-resistant rating that makes it ideal for use in outdoor environments or other harsh conditions. The 2TB storage capacity is also impressive, providing ample space for storing large files such as high-quality video recordings. Although I did not end up using the T7 Shield for very long, due to its incompatibility with my Tesla dashcam, I found it to be very easy to set up and use. The transfer speeds were very fast, allowing me to quickly move files between my devices and the external SSD. Overall, I would definitely recommend the Samsung T7 Shield 2TB External USB 3.2 Gen 2 Rugged SSD IP65 Water Resistant to anyone in need of a durable and high-capacity storage device. While it didn't work for my specific needs, it worked great for the little time I used it and I have no doubts about its overall quality and performance.

    This drive has a good high-quality feel to it, like it would be durable enough for taking along in a backpack with an iPad. It’s fast, quiet, and I expect it to last a long time. As for the software that comes with it then my advice is don’t bother if you’re using mac devices. Just erase and format the drive for Mac and it’ll work great. I’m happy.

    So this isna great product. It small, lightweight and has a large space. The price was very reasonable for the size and it processes information quickly. I demoed this guy in Chicago at a training session for my job and had to have one. My only critique is that BBY did not offer a warranty on it. We all know things happen and I like to ease of mind knowing I have a warranty to cover any unforseen issues. I pay by the yr so EVERYTHING I purchase at BBY is covered. I feel like the ball was dropped in this sense. This is the ONLY reason i didnt give 5 stars.

    It is small in size and ample in space. Worry-free for its sturdy design. Now it is a must to bring for work and play. You may not need it as a regular person working in an office but it is hard to resist thinking of the price and durability. If not a heavy user for videos or photos, the 2TB might be a better choice.
