Beware, you will not get full 2000mb/s
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Beware, you will not get full 2000mb/s as advertised. It says upto that speed. When you plug into the Mac Mini M2 Pro, you will get about 1000mbps. Still faster than T7 Shield but if you don't need rugged and protection, better go get Samsung 990 pro and get 40gb/s enclosure. But overall still nice product

Samsung T9 4TB ssd
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.very easy to connect to the computer and install the app, recognized right away and very easy to use. I'm just surprised that the free space is only 3.63 TB !!, so, it takes about 400 GB used by the drive for system info and alike, really huge amount used by the drive.

Blazing-Fast, Reliable, and Perfect for Profession
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I’ve been using the Samsung T9 Portable SSD (4TB) for my production and media workflow, and it has been an absolute game-changer when it comes to speed, reliability, and storage capacity. Performance & Speed The advertised 2,000MB/s read and write speeds are not just a marketing claim—it genuinely delivers exceptional performance. Large 4K/8K video files transfer seamlessly, and working directly from the SSD in video editing software (like Premiere Pro or DaVinci Resolve) feels incredibly smooth with zero lag. Storage & Reliability With 4TB of storage, I no longer have to worry about juggling multiple smaller drives. It’s perfect for backing up footage on the go, and the NVMe architecture ensures long-term reliability without performance degradation. Build Quality & Portability The T9 has a rugged yet sleek design, with a textured surface for grip. It feels solid yet lightweight, making it super portable for travel and on-location shoots. Shock-resistant build provides peace of mind when carrying it around in tough environments. Compatibility & Connectivity It works flawlessly across Mac, Windows, and even iPadOS (when using USB-C to USB-C). The USB 3.2 Gen2 interface ensures fast speeds on most modern devices, though you’ll need a high-end port to fully utilize its potential. Drawbacks Slightly pricier than some competitors, but the performance and reliability justify the cost. Needs a high-speed USB port to achieve full 2,000MB/s speeds. Otherwise, performance is limited by the connection. Final Verdict The Samsung T9 4TB SSD is an essential tool for professionals dealing with high-resolution media, large files, and fast-paced workflows. The speed, durability, and massive capacity make it worth every penny. If you’re in video production, photography, or any creative field, this SSD is a must-have.

Slow controller overwhelmed by NTFS, bitlocker
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Honestly a bit disappointed for my first Samsung external SSD and wont be buying again. A good drive if you do not need to use bitlocker or other file systems like NTFS. But if either of these is used, or heavens forbid both in combination, the overhead is apparently too much for the controller and the drive's performance drops to a crawl. Like 2 minutes to open a browser running on the drive, or almost a minute to transfer a picture. 200kb to 3mb read and write speeds. Issue resolves if I disable both NTFS via reformat as well as bitlocker, or is greatly resolved if I disable either of them. issue is replicated on my older laptop and on my latest gen high end workstation. A very disappointing result for what is supposed to be a premium external SSD. I will be returning and will not recommend Samsung for professional applications since this issue has never been encountered before on other drives. We will be sticking to WD, which have given good reliability and who actually pairs their externals with decent controllers.

Failed too fast
||Posted . Owned for 11 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Failed in less than a year.. I was using this as a storage device for my dj music. Randomly my dj software would lose connection to my library and it would at times cause audio drop out. This got worse and worse over time. I am using an older Macbook Pro and I figured it was time to upgrade, but when I used a newer device, this would still happen. Turns out it is this SSD. I am not sure if it overheats, or if its just a bad unit. But Samsung Magician does not show any thing wrong with it, but I cannot use this drive for extended periods of time without it dropping off whatever device it is connected to.. for the amount of money I spent, this was very disappointing.

Thank you for purchasing the Samsung T9 SSD. Samsung drives adhere to the IDEMA standard of advanced formatting, which will result in the drive appearing as less than the listed size. However, the amount of missing space on your drive is more than expected.
Please contact Samsung Customer Support to further investigate your capacity issue.

2,000mbps NOT!!
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Plugged in to a new Mac Mini M4 Pro Thunderbolt 5 and gets only 950mbps. The only reason I’m not returning it is that I need the 4TB. Don’t believe the hype about speed. If that’s what attracts you to this SSD, RUN!!

Samsung T9 4Tb external drive
||Posted . Owned for 9 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I purchased the T9 4TB and within a few months the drive was not usable. This drive was being used a my photo library with the new iMac 24 M3. I had the Geek Squad try to recover the photo files. After several tries they were successful but the photos were not in the albums like they were on the iMac.I would have to organize 1TB of photos. I would not recommend this drive.
