SAMSUNG T5 Portable SSD 1TB - Up to 540MB/s - USB 3.1 External Solid State Drive, Black (MU-PA1T0B/AM)

I wanted a portable store for media which I can use when travelling.

Fast speed, small size, low price. Everything is good!

After a lot of personal testing with large multi gig files Ive found that this drive tends to stop working after a bit. The problem is its too fast for itself, it generates too much heat and shuts down mid transfer. Im assuming its heat because it becomes a bit warm to the touch.

Small and extremely light. Not quite getting the advertised speeds but close enough for my needs. Overall a great purchase - highly recommended.

Well its small light weight good and all but need a little rubber protection. Else its perfecto! I dunno about tech support tho.

I could not get this Item to work properly I do not know if the item was faulty or what

Good

This external drive is amazing. I wanted something I could add to my nvidia shield to watch movies locally using my Plex server. Ive tried other hard drives and flash drives but i have never been satisfied. This drive is about the size of a credit card. When I did a bench test, it was almost as fast as my laptops internal SSD. If you need a fast SSD drive and will to spend the money, you wont be disappointed.

Even though the drive is fast and works well I frequently get a message that says “drive not ejected properly”. I always eject the drive before I disconnect it. It scares me because if you don’t eject it properly you can corrupt the data!! I love how small and fast it is!! I have 5.

Its 3.1 gen 1, so its only 500mb/s but it still quite fast due to low latency. I use this as a portable external game library on my PC. Games load and run off of it perfectly.
