Customer Ratings & Reviews

This drive is excellent for travel storage. It is very small - only a few times larger than a jump drive. It is very rugged, and well protected from the elements - making it great for the outdoors. I have the 1TB model, which comes already formatted as exFAT and ready for use for both Android and Windows. I am using it to store a lot of movies in mp4 ranging in size from 3GB to 30GB. I uploaded them through a USB 3.0 port on my tower. The speed is good, as can be seen in the test results below. The drive did get warm while putting almost 900GB onto the drive, but never exceeded 45deg C. It did this big job without a hitch!

Just love this Drive everything about it is just great, the size and the speed also that its Rugged and water resistant gives me a peace of mind since I'm always working in places where most of my gear are expose to the elements.

Absolutely love this storage. Its easy and fast to move videos and pics from my phone to my Ipad pro. The speed is so so fast and this is such a light weight item. I definitely will buy another when i need it. I've erased and used so many times to make videos and YouTube stuff. O definitely recommend it. Its hardcore because of the case its in if it were to fall.

Was using this to expand my steam library on my laptop; when comparing this to the external HDD I was using before this external SSD had crazy fast download speeds and I experienced no problems gaming from the games stored on this. It’s pretty small so it’s very portable and it comes with two separate cables for connecting, the usb-c to usb-c cable is the one I use and it’s very durable.

This is a fantastic product! I was skeptical at first but found that 1 TB is more than what I needed for what I do! As a music producer I wanted to limit the amount of vsts and plugins I put natively on my MacBook and this has saved at least 100GB of storage on my computer. The best part about it is that you can encrypt it. This requires that you install the software that works wonderfully on MacOS. It’s definitely a greater sense of peace felt knowing that if it’s stolen the only way to access the information is by entering a password or taking it out by dismantling the product and bypassing encryption(I doubt anyone would go through this unless you’re the president)! Overall a great product and well worth the price as SSD is safer than HDD. I definitely wish I was able to get 2TB for future use but I doubt I’ll need it anytime soon! If you’re looking for a small yet affordable ssd this is definitely a great purchase and an overall great investment! If you are clumsy like me definitely check out the T7 shield! An added bonus is that the product comes with usb c and a cords! My only problem was trying to figure out how to properly install the software but after checking Samsung’s website it was made more clear than the instructions that come in box! If you’re not used to installing 3rd party software on MacOS there are plenty of YouTube videos entailing how!

The Best!! Easy to use. The Rubbed Shield is Very Protective.Move/Copy Large Files Very Fast. It Does What it Says it Does. Never Used one? No Problem is Very Easy To Use, Happy with The T7 Shield Device. Compatible With Windows,mac OS And Android. Also With Phones For Bloggers is PERFECT

I bought this as a time-machine drive for my Mac mini. It does the job. Not as fast as my usb 4 enclosure with Samsung name inside, but certainly fast enough. The case is nice. Nice and rugged, soft shell. Including a pic of it next to my OWC usb 4 enclosure.

So far this hard drive has been one of the best hard drives that I've had so far. It has fallen about two or three times, but it still works, and I also appreciate the amount of USB cords that they gave me for my laptop. Being in the military I often need for my devices to work and work efficiently so while I'm traveling from country to country, this has been a great help for me

Big storage for a small device this drive is very fast reliable and secure I have a peace of mind knowing I can keep my data that is stored safe and it is my go to storage device as for I’m a photographer and content marketer also it allows me to plug up to any computer to share data without having to physically bring my laptop everywhere

The Samsung T7 Shield 1TB is a rugged, high-performance SSD that’s perfect for on-the-go storage. With USB 3.2 Gen 2 speeds, it delivers fast file transfers, while its IP65 rating ensures water, dust, and drop resistance. The compact black design is both stylish and durable, making it ideal for outdoor use or demanding environments. It’s compatible with PC, Mac, and even some mobile devices. While slightly more expensive than non-rugged options, its reliability, speed, and toughness make it a top choice for anyone needing portable, rugged storage. Highly recommended!

If you’re looking for an external SSD I highly suggest trying the T7! I’ve been using the T7 for the past month for gaming, streaming, and music producing and I couldn’t be happier with it. I have a MSI GL66 laptop which sadly only has 500GB of storage — and if you’re into gaming you know that it isn’t a lot lol — I was suggested by a friend the Samsung T5 but when looking it up it was $250. I saw the T7 in the suggested and decided to try it out because it was only $80 and had good reviews. And like I said, I couldn’t be happier with my purchase. It’s fast, high quality, shield protected, and cheaper than most other options. So if you’re looking for an external SSD I highly suggest trying it out!

I been using this product for over a year and is very worth. The case is very durable and safe, small and now I’m buying another one of the same product, this time 2TB.

Exactly what I wanted and needed. Small package with fast read/write speeds. Currently using this as storage for music files. All made possible with BestBuy pricing. I looked at other resellers and BestBuy simply had the best price. Competitve pricing wins everytime! Thanks BB!

Fast. Ps4 and ps5 compatible. Shimizu double the speed of my stock ps4 hdd.(real life use) makes games load almost as fast as ps5 only a few milliseconds higher latency

Works great abit expensive but dose a wonderful job. Connection is very good and download and uploading is exceptionally fantastically fast. It works for what I need.

I use this as a game dump. Works great with Steam! Seems like you could run it over with a truck and probably not lose anything except that dope finish. It really is a pretty piece lol. Plug and play. 100% BS free. And that's a Bobo Guarantee! (Bobo Guarantee means a 100% promise that I believe what I'm saying and a 0% promise of anything else.)

Nice quality External SSD. I use it for storing SLR's camera shot. The images and videos transfer over very quickly since this is an Solid State Drive rather than simply a hard disk drive. The over all build quality is great, its water restistant which is a major plus, and it has a rugged smooth feel to it. It hooks up very easily with an Apple computer since it has a USB to USB connection. I really could ask for anything more. I havent had any issues with the product and I will update this review if i do. My overall grade for the product and deal = A

Very compact, fast speeds as well. Came in clutch for the price as well!

I dropped my previous external hard drive and needed to replace it. I found this one and it has been good so far. damage resistant from 3 meters, water resistant (haven't tested that feature) and its light, compact and a nice color.

I recently purchased the Samsung T7 Shield 1TB External USB 3.2 Gen 2 Rugged SSD and I am extremely impressed with its performance and durability. Not only is it waterproof with an IP65 rating, but it also boasts incredibly fast data transfer speeds. The rugged design gives me peace of mind knowing that my data is protected even in tough conditions. Overall, I highly recommend the Samsung T7 Shield for anyone in need of a durable and reliable external storage solution.
