Customer Ratings & Reviews

I recently bought this drive, and it has been a huge help for my work. It’s incredibly fast, lightweight, and easy to use. I mainly use it to save all my files and projects, and it has really helped me offload a lot of storage from my laptop. Now my laptop runs smoother, and I have peace of mind knowing my important work is safely backed up. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for reliable, portable storage.

This portable external SSD is extremely fast, and lightweight. The connectivity is suitable as well, with Samsung bundling both a USB-C to USB-C, and USB-C to USB-A cable in the box. This allows the SSD to be used with PC, Mac, and Linux machines (formatted as FAT for compatibility), and with either of the USB formats. The read and write speeds reported by Samsung are accurate per my testing. Overall, a great purchase if you need an extra location to back up important data or to transfer files quickly between computers, especially when it's on sale.

Great portable SSD. Very small and light and really fast transfer speed. Use this with a M1 Mac mini editing photos and video from it and have no issues at all, really smooth workflow.

This is a very handy external SSD. I purchased this to use with an M1 Mac Mini and it provides all the speed that I never had using an external hard drive. It's rated at 1,000 MBPS and I tested it from my Mac Mini and I get just under 700 MBPS. I'm not sure if this is common, but I've also heard many people don't get the stated speeds on the M1 Macs. However, I'm still happy with the speeds. It's a nice compact external SSD and I just place it in the cable tray under my sit/stand desk. I try to hide all of my cables as I actually use this drive permanently instead of a portable drive.

Fantastic storage device fast cool quiet portable usb C. Easy to use on Windows and Mac. This is the best way to store files and videos offline in a small package.

I use this for extended storage on my PS4/PS5 and it is excellent. Games load times decreased about 40%-50% on PS4, depending on the game. I also use it for PS4 games on my PS5 to free up valuable space on the internal storage. I highly recommend this for anyone with an extensive game library to help manage storage and avoid the constant re-download of games.

Super fast, great external drive for my iPad Pro, Windows and Mac. Just make sure you format in exFAT. The fiscal size is just perfect.

**Purchased on 11/30/2020 Black Friday sale, after eyeing it since release early 2020** Edit: Make SURE that both your computer and the USB-C cable you are using is capable of the USB3.2Gen2 speeds that this offers!! Alright guys listen up, Im a wannabe film maker/photographer alright, and on top of that I am a full time student studying biology and nursing during this pandemic. Check this all out For school, being online, I record my entire screen with audio for every lecture (because I cant focus for the life of me and I require reference all the time, also my memory is crap lol) so that's about 3-4 lectures a day (with each recording being 3-5GB) and I go between keeping them on my MacBook's hard drive and off loading them onto this SSD. So I have a Fuji X-T3 and a MacBook Pro 13in(Intel i5, early 2020, 16GB RAM, 1TB storage) for all my creative desires... For photography, I shoot in full uncompressed RAW with TONS of "spraying and praying" (so obviously that's GIGABYTES of data, on average about 60-80GB per shoot) and for video, I shot a bunch of weddings in full 4K, 60fps 10-bit 4:2:0 at 200mbps H.265/HEVC (between of 240-320GB of footage per wedding) GUYS. LISTEN- Not ONLY can this thing transfer 600GB of data in under 12 minutes... Playback of ANY video (my lectures or footage from my camera) is STUTTER FREE!!!! But WAIT!! THERES MORE!! I use Final Cut Pro X for my film making needs... The T7 can handle NON-PROXY EDITING!!!! This translates into NOT having to spend time waiting for optimized media AND saving space on both my MacBook and this SSD!! YOU CAN EDIT 4K H.265 CODEC WITH NO LAG!!! If you cannot already tell, I am very excited and IMPRESSED at both the performance and value of this thing. I cannot believe I was thinking about returning this!! I also have the 500GB T5, and lemme tell ya, the T7 is almost TWICE as fast in sequential processes. Basically, BUY THIS!! Hopefully this helps out anyone on the fence

Another great Samsung product, Very small, easily portable. SSD so it is also very fast. Really doing the job, so much so I bought 2 of them one with fingerprint security.

Fast, lightweight and reliable. Easy set up, easy to use lots of storage compact

This is the second Samsung SSD I have purchased (first one was a 500GB for my wife), and it meets all of my expectations. Small size makes it super easy to take anywhere. Data transfer is lightning fast. Only one cable (USB-C to USB-C) makes connecting a snap. I am very pleased with this product, and give it my full recommendation.

Very reasonably priced. Small enough to fit in your pocket, but has 1 TB of storage capacity. Great alternative to the "Cloud". Sets up quickly and easily and is ready to go.

Whoa! The reading and writing speeds on this thing are incredible. I was blown away. It works almost seamless with a MacBook. The first time I tried to back up my laptop I received a message my device could not be backed up. I carefully ejected the device, reconnected it and tried again. It worked perfectly the second time. I was able to back up my whole laptop in less than an hour. I also transferred all my data to a new device and had no issues. I am extremely satisfied with this product and I would highly recommend if you’re in the market for an external drive.

Great ssd for the price! Speeds are fast and works well with my ps4 pro. Purchased for extra storage for my ps5, will add to the review when thay comes in.

Super fast SSD. Could copy 25 GB files within 3 minutes. Almost have 255 GB remining. I got it for 109$ which was worth.

Thisnhas been one of my best purchases for my pc, external ram is very much needed when most PC's only come with around 500gb internal, great buy! No problems so far. And its been about a year since purchase. Still running strong and a highly reccomended product by me to my freinds for a while now!

Incredibly fast, small size, convenient to have and carry. A great way to expand storage without much space taken up on a desk or in a bag.

I always purchase these Samsung solid state drives. In the past it has been the T5, but this time it was the T7. They are speedy and reliable. I believe the T7 is faster than the T5 - it felt faster, but I was also using it on a newer computer, so it could simply have been the bus speed. I also really like that they come with both a usb c to usb c cable and a regular usb to usb c cable - so no matter what kind of connection you need, it works. We have Macs and these drives work with them out of the box.

This is worth buying i should've gotten the 2tb but i just wanted to see if i would like this and all I will say is that I'm very satisfied with this and it is real quick when setting it up and this will work with your game system this hooked right up to my Playstation with no problems
