So far so good. Using with MacBook Air M4 and left it exfat and no issues. Was able to take entire music and photo collection and move from very old hdd to new Samsung SSD. Liked it so ouch due to size, ruggedness and speed is plenty fast for what I use it for. Like it so much I bought another to have for day to day and this one as a backup with my entire drive saved off on it. It was plug and play easy to use, power source by a c cable and no discernible noise. Some heat after prolonged usage but nothing bad. So far zero data loss and highly recommended.

Great SSD. I got the 2TB version and honestly couldn’t be happier. The price is solid, the brand is reliable, not some random no-name drive. The rubberized casing feels durable and comfortable, and it handles everyday use without issues. It comes with a USB-C high-speed cable, and the transfer speeds are exactly what you expect — fast. What I love most is how natively it connects. My phone detected it instantly as external storage. I just select my photos and videos, tap “copy originals,” and everything moves over in seconds. I use it mainly to unload large video files from my gallery — copy, delete from the phone, and move on. No glitches, no surprises, just pure speed and convenience. If I had to mention one thing to improve, it would be amazing if this SSD had built-in MagSafe. Being able to snap it to the back of the phone would take convenience to another level. But that’s just a wish, not a complaint. Five stars from me — really satisfied.

Fast and reliable USB drive. I will only purchase SSD drives now rather than a traditional spinning platter drive. As a video editor, the drive capacity and read speed is critical. I have a few of these now in different size capacities and these Samsung T7 drives are my preferred external drives for a few reasons. First, they're SSD drives so the possibility to go bad in contrast to a spinning platter drive is very slim. I have lost a few traditional drives over the years and once is enough. I have not had an SSD drive fail yet. Second, these Samsungs are fast. I am able to edit high bit rate, 4k media directly from these USB-C drives without having to bog down my internal drives with the footage files. The read speed is quick enough to not be a concern while editing directly from the drives. I've not been concerned with write speed but the benchmark tests are still high. They do not get hot like the traditional drives do. Form factor: tiny and easy to transport! I have 1TB, 2 TB, and 4 TB drives. Three of these together are still smaller than a traditional rugged external drive AND with no moving parts, I don't need to be concerned with careful packing and accidental shock. They arrive formatted as exfat so very easy to use with either mac or PC. They're affordable too. Every time a cheap client or agency provides me footage on a slow, sub-standard platter drive, I transfer it all to one of these Samsungs asap.

As a photographer, it's important to have a quality back up drive, and with this T7 is what you get. Simply the best SSD portable drive to get. Unless you need or want the T9, but the T9 doesn't come with the shield. At least not yet. Easy to install, Backup is also easy. Just drag and drop. Perfect size for any pocket in your business bag, back/front/side pocket...etc. You get what you pay for. So, it was a great value! I'd buy another. Perhaps a 2 TB this time.

Great little SSD. Can hold a lot of data and it transfers at a decent speed. Needed one for gaming purposes. Call of duty is over 300GB and I didn’t want to use up my internal hardrive. Saying so it does lag a bit at moments for this game. Not sure about the 1000mbs but it does work ok. It’s compact so it can be stored away and it comes with both USB to USB bus or type C to type c bus.

Llevó unos meses probándolo, haciendo respaldo de todo lo que esta a mi paso, la computadora del trabajo, la del hogar, la de mi amiga, respaldos de celulares Android y apenas he ocupado una cuarta parte del espacio total de 4TB, si bien debo decir que como en toda unidad de almacenamiento una pequeña parte de este espacio es ocupado por archivos del disco u otros de sistema, más o menos te quedán libres 3726gb. La velocidad de escritura es de cerca de 1050 mb/s pero es necesario estar conectado a un USB 3.0, sino la velocidad será reducida dramáticamente como a la mitad. En general los tiempos de transmisión de datos son asombrosos con el T7. Una de las cosas que más me gustan es que puedes ver los archivos en cualquier parte con solo conectar el cable al dispositivo, trae 2, uno entrada CtoC y otro CtoUSB. Es importante desmontar la unidad tanto en el celular como en la computadora para no corromper los datos o dañar el disco duro. Lo que no te explican es que en el celular hay que bajar la aplicación SAMSUNG MAGICIAN para configurar el T7 con una contraseña alfanumérica segura. Si se activo la contraseña y lo queremos abrir en Windows hay que instalar un archivo la primera vez para poder ingresar el password y nos de acceso a todos los archivos cifrados. Eso si, si pierdes la contraseña tendrás que llevarlo a un centro autorizado para que te ayuden a desbloquearlo. Lo que no me gusta es que lo traigo en la bolsa y se llena de pelusas con el material como tipo goma, pero nada que un trapo húmedo no pueda resolver. Conviene comprar un case aunque diga que resiste golpes y tenga una IP6. En resumen es una super opción que si bien es costosa vale la pena por el respaldo masivo de datos en la palma de tu mano. (es sumamente pequeño para tener 4TB) Además que SAMSUNG es una marca reconocida y el producto es fabricado en Corea. Se puede trabajar con el si te gusta producir contenido para Internet como videos o fotos. El envío fue en apróx. 4días considerando que venía desde lejos. Vale la pena hacer inversión en este gadget. Ideal para Win o MacOs.

Atendeu perfeitamente minhas expectativas

Pequeno, de fácil transporte, leve, e não aqueceu durante o uso intenso. Bom acabamento e de rápida comunicação com o computador ou notebook. Valeu o custo.

Samsung product. Solid performance.

Surprisingly small form factor, fit into the palm of your hand and had a rubberised premium feel to it. When paired with an adequate USB C port, it offers super fast read/write speeds. Comes with a small USB C to C cable. Would have really liked it if they would have bundled a small pouch for the drive and cable.
