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

Fast, light and durable.

Its light, super fast read and write speeds, and its small and compact. One of the best external SSDs out there.

Said disconnected

Works well on Apple Macbook Air. Highly recommend this external SSD.

Tiny ,fast, effective storage

This SSD has great speed and easy to use. The only reason I’m not giving this 5/5 stars is because there are other SSDs with USB 3.2 Generation 2 speeds instead of the 3.1 on this SSD.

Bought it for a backup of my phone versus cloud storage. Transfer rate is amazing. Worth it!

I tried everything including reinstalling software. The message on the screeen was DEVICE NOT CONNECTED. It was!

I buy Samsung everything (as I type this on my S10+ while watching my Samsung 65) but this drive has been a serious disappointment. I have Samsung internal SATA SSD and NVMe SSD that have worked great for a few years now. This drive constantly disconnects from USB and gives a dim blue light. I have the same issue on my Surface Book 2 and my PC. Ive tried everything I can think of... different cables, ports, disabled all USB power suspend in OS, disabled security in Samsung app. I knew I shouldve bought an internal drive and a dock instead. Hope I can keep it connected long enough to try to recover my data and return.

This drive is quite small, only about the size of a credit card. So it fits just about anywhere and comes with all the cables you could need. Very good if a little expensive. If you are using a Mac and want to partition it though, it can be a little tricky to do, so that is a bit of a pain, but once you get past that, it is a great drive.
