SAMSUNG SSD T7 Portable External Solid State Drive 1TB, Up to 1050MB/s, USB 3.2 Gen 2, Reliable Storage for Gaming, Students, Professionals, MU-PC1T0T/AM, Gray

Impression based on first couple hours use, so might change, but, so far, really an excellent drive (seemingly better than the T5 Id been using for a while even by appearance--I do realize that, theoretically, T7 should be about twice as fast.). One thing I did find surprising was that this drive came with exFat format from get go. Cant complain since it does make it readily usable for an Android phone/tablet out of box.

Randomly disconnects causing software to freeze.

This device is small, portable and efficient. It is versatile as well. Very useful between the PC, tablet and other mobile devices. Very like wait.

This external hard drive works perfectly. However, if youre going to use it on a Mac and you want the backup to be bootable, you have to change the file format from the exFat format to the APFS format. Then all of the files will be bootable.

This small drive is so small and handy to transport. It has a ton of storage capacity and is very stable.

I have 5 of these T7s. They are fast, convenient to carry around, versatile and best for the buck I found in my research. You can use the AES 256-bit encrypted password protection, so it is secure, too. I have them in different colors so I can tell at a glance which is the one I need: they all have different type of data. I prefer the 1TB because I have no data kind that exceeds that, but definitely need more than 500GB.

I purchased this ssd thinking it would work for the Xbox one x as an external ssd drive. I had also purchased the t7 1tb ssd with the fingerprint sensor option when it first released as well and had the exact same issues as this ssd. The exact same issue where when I play forza horizon 4 happens with this drive. When I go into a race online, not only does it pause for like 3 seconds, but the map has white square patches missing at times due to the sleeping hybrid feature of these ssds. They are more efficient in these aspects energy wise as well as longevity wise but it affects real time applications such as gaming. I had my hopes up that maybe I got a lemon the first go around or that they released an update but Im sorry to say they havent. The loading speeds are exactly the same between the t5 ssd and the t7 ssd from samsung when connected to the Xbox one x. I tested the load speed of only forza horizon 4 on my t5 ssd and then filled it up to about 75% and tested it again and it still loads exactly the same speed! The t5 is IMHO and research the fastest and most durable ssd for the Xbox one x as far as external ssd drives go. Give nvme ssd technology time to work these bugs out but dont think the t5 ssd isnt fast because it is one of the fastest if not the fastest portable ssd on the market besides newer nvme ssd technology drives

Exactly what i needed for a backup drive for my computer files.

More ram space for my ps5 great purchase Im happy with it thanks Amazon!!!

VERY HARD YO USE IN BOTH OS PC AN MAC, IF YOU DO SOMETHING IN MAC AND TRY TO USE IN PC YOUR DATA DOES NOT APPEARS, AND VICEVERSA.
