Best SSD For Price.
This is by far the easiest recommendation i have ever had to make because of how awesome the drive is. The obvious cool thing about this drive is the size. Its small and thin and can even fit in my wallet if I wanted to because it has the length and width profile of a credit card. Granted, it is a little wider than its predecessor the T5 but the difference does not affect its portability. Note that it is also thinner than the T5.Even along with the included cables it fits into any pocket without being conspicuous. This makes it very easy to travel with and use on the go. The include cables are a huge plus for me because it helps the drive deliver on performance. True almost everything is USB C now and most people have cables they can use with it, but I found that using the included cables gives a slight boost in performance. The performance of this drive is amazing. Its read and write times were almost twice as fast as the T5 which was already plenty fast. The software utility included is intuitive and easy to use. It allows for either a password or a pin which also adds to its ease of use and portability. Whether I am connected to my phone, tablet or computer it is comforting to know that my files are secure and cannot be altered without my permission. The price is also very reasonable considering the protection you get. i got the 2TB which might be overkill for most but it comes in 500GB and 1TB also. It has been worth the investment for me because I know that even if I misplace it, my intellectual property and personal items will still be protected since it will only open as a read-only drive without the password. To sum up, its sleek, fast and secure and also a must have for anyone with any digital information to protect.

Junk Drive
Using Samsung Magic to do benchmark, I get Sequential Read: 44mbs Sequential Write 36 mbs Random Read 7324 IOPS Random Write 5371 IOPS I don't know a ton about this stuff but here's a perfect example of the performance: On steam, it took 45 mins to allocate space on this ssd for Dead Space Remake, and Hogwarts Legacy. On my basic WD HDD, it happened so quickly I almost thought it didn't. I dunno if this drive is defective but.....I will probably never buy a Samsung drive, again. First impressions are everything.... I mean, yall used to make good CRT tvs hahaha

    Compact pocket sdd
    I bought this sdd as extra store for my xbox series x and I have to say that I give 4 stars because the ssd isn't fast enough for the new games on the console and you can't play them but, If you want it for something else this ssd is a great option

    Fast Upgrade for Backup!
    I have had positive experience with the Samsung T5 SSD and needed a bit more speed to back up my new Apple Mac Studio. The new drive works great and is very fast working with my backup software. The small size is also beneficial from a space savings standpoint. A very welcomed sturdy addition! A very good value based upon price/performance.

    Fast and durable
    Solid build and excellent performance. It outperforms all my other external drives on speed and versatility. No reformatting needed due to it's wide compatibility and can easily transfer large media files between my iOS and Android devices, Windows and Mac computers.

    Great Portable SSD.
    I bought the 1TB version 6 months ago, and this is the best portable SSD I've ever used. It's really compact and thin but powerful so that I can bring it anywhere. The read and write speeds were really fast, which saved my time a lot. I will recommend friends and relatives to buy this product because of its high value and benefits.

    Amazing Device
    The samsung portable SSD T7 500 GB memory device is amazing. I love the password security feature which puts me at ease with the sensitive information that I like to keep on the drive. The small card size design is amazing and it doesnt heat up making it optimal for long sessions. The device loads fast and the file transfers are extremely fast. Having connectivity via usb-c and usb-a makes this perfect for moving information between my two computers. The blue color is also an amazing look.

    Compact and useful
    The Samsung T7 is an awesome way to keep important information safe while taking it out and about. It comes with both usb c to usb c wire and usb a to usb c, no need for an extra power cord. The memory device is small, about the same size as a business card; it is also thin and very light. It is very easy to carry around in a pocket, small purse, backpack, etc. It is very easy to open with the laptop or computer and bring back and forth. 1tb of memory is plenty of storage to store away videos, pictures, large and small files my computer has 1tb but most of it is used by now so this external memory has come in very useful. Setting up the password was easy and if you do not have the password you cannot get into the T7, keeping everything safe in case you misplace it. It does not make any noise at all, quiet, and do not even know it is there. And I really enjoy that It does not get hot at all, it is always cool even while using for an extended amount of time. You can access from phone computer and as long as you have the password then it is accessible. Performs great, very nice design, compact and amazing.

    Premium, Superfast and light weight
    The Samsung T7 1TB is a very attractive product right out of the box. It is very slim, light weight and dimensions are almost the size of a credit card. It has a light weight aluminum case, the grey color looks very premium and the SSD feels sturdy in the hand. It is very helpful that the SSD comes with 2 cables : USB type C-C and type C-A. Due to those cables, I was able to connect to my Windows laptop, MacBook Air and my Samsung Note 10+. The set up was super easy, connectivity was super fast and the laptops/ phone recognized my SSD instantly. I had to download the Samsung SSD magician software . The software helps to optimize the use of the SSD. It can detect potential failures and correct them in advance. It also provides an overall view of the health of the device including storage and temperature controls. The SSD is noiseless when its connected to the laptop. It has a blue led light that indicates that its connected to your device. Even though the devices recognized my SSD instantly, the SSD app was not able to connect to either the phone or the tablet. I tried multiple times but the app still does not recognize the devices. I think Samsung will have to update the app to fix this problem. However, I was able to copy/paste and drag/drop photos, music, videos etc of all sizes into the SSD and they took just seconds to get transferred. The T7 SSD thermal control was great even after weeks of use. The T7 SSD remained cool and never felt warm even after continuous use Or while transferring large videos. The T7 SSD always felt like an integral part of the devices it was connected to. Overall a highly efficient, reliable and durable SSD that does exactly what its meant for......store data securely!
