Great item, but possibly has a defect.
The item initially ran well, great speeds for an external drive it is an SSD of course. However, after a few months it now disconnects randomly for unknown reasons. I have been in contact with Samsung regarding my issue and am currently testing the item with a different cable. I cannot determine at this time if that is the issue, but Samsung's support assured me that my issue would be addressed once we determine the true source of the problem. I am definitely satisfied with this item despite my current issues and would highly recommend it to others in need of EXTREMELY fast portable storage.

Good if compatible with your system
I bought it to be used with my wife's ASUS laptop but it was being detected half the time but with my two desktops worked all the time, speed was pretty good so my only advice is try it and if it does not work with with your particular system just return it. I understand that the issue might be solved with a future BIOS update (for the laptop) or a firmware update for the portable SSD.. Why is it worth to try it? I is extremely small and light, actually the smallest portable SSD I have seen to this date
