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.

    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.

    Has a lot of space for storage. Nice size and the price was right. The only problems I had was with shipping. It was shipped via FedEx and it never arrived. looked like FedEx lost it, Best Buy was good about a replacement that I went and picked up at the store.

    And it's just a bit longer than a credit card in size! Couldn't get over the stupid convenient size - I threw it in my pocket and it was very easy to carry. WD software was easy to get set up for my back-up files.

    VERY Happy with this little drive. Speeds are at or very near what I would expect from an SSD. Very compact, fits nicely into my back-up drive portable case as an additional drive when working on pictures or other items.

    I was hesitant before buying this as some reviewers said you can get the transfer speed as advertised, but I have it a try. I use it with my MacBook Pro and the speed is blazing fast. Transfer 10GB less than 10 secs. However, it gets warm really quick. It makes me doubt its reliability.

    Works great. I am an entry-level developer and need to always have a copy on me at all times. With this product I not only get to walk around with my code in a small portable form, it is also password encrypted so I don't have to worry about other people accessing my work.
