    This product is awesome. I was able to put thousands of photos and videos off of my phone to save space in less than two minutes. Now i can carry them anywhere to view if i need to. It's great.

    This has been the best portable drive I have purchased. It is small and compact, with plenty of space. It has a very quick transfer rate, especially when transferring from other SSDs.

    The drive is well-protected and is every bit as fast as a standard T7. It's fast and reliable, and I'd recommend this to anyone looking for that combination in a portable SSD. I regularly see transfers of large files hitting the higher end of the rated transfer speed - around 700-800 MB/S. Typical Samsung quality.

    This is my second T7 and I chose the padded type for this purchase. I sit the drives on top of my PC and they frequently fall of. The padded T7 will be more protected against accidental falls and that's why I chose it. My other T7 works fine BTW. Besides this, the drive is excellent and runs flawlessly.
