Customers often highlight the portability, size, and overall performance of the My Passport 1TB External USB Type-C Portable SSD, with many praising its compact design and fast speeds. Positive feedback also mentions the ample storage capacity and convenient connectivity options. However, some users have noted concerns regarding heat generation and occasional compatibility issues with certain systems. A shorter-than-ideal cable length was also mentioned as a minor drawback.

    This is a simple to use product, just connect it to us UBS port and you are set to go, and the capacity is great. I was able to move every document from my laptop to the Passport and there was still plenty of storage space. Accessing documents on the Passport was also easy.

    Since it is pocket size it takes up very little room in computer bag. It is very convenient for me to store my photos stored. Even my Lightroom catalog runs fast from this drive.

    Was looking for a portable SSD that works over usb c with fast performance and this device delivers. When paired with a computer that supports the latest usb standards I am getting very close to the advertised speeds. It does get a little hot especially when writing a lot of data. I’m able to photo and video editing right off the drive. It works with both my windows laptop and MacBook.

    I upgraded my MacBook Pro to one of the new ones and I was worried about the speed with which I'd be up and running from my TimeMachine backup on an old spinning HDD. I picked this one up and started backing up. I'm pleased with the read/write speed and had the M1 Pro up and running in less than an hour. Seems durable and reliable!

    I needed storage for photography while traveling as my laptop was beginning to fill up. I found this as my alternative. It is very compact, does not need alternative power and downloaded more quickly than the external hard drives I use at home for my photos. It was plug and play to my USB3 port. It comes with an adapter for a standard USB. It worked well.

    The Samsung 1TB USB Type C portable solid state drive is amazing. I have lost info on drives before and this is my second Samsung solid state drive and it's great. No worries about losing info; locking up or destroying files. In my estimation, the safest way to go with precious files.

    Insanely fast when using the USB C cable. It gets a little hot when a lot of data is transferred (like over 200GB,) but that was a one time back up. It comes with a USB C to USB A adapter and USB C to USB C cable. Honestly, the adapter is useless, buy this because it is USB C.
