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

Could not format with Apple APFS. Therefore could not divide drive into two sections. Which means i couldnt use the SSD has planed.

I have an iMac and use the external drive for Virtual Instrument Libraries, so quick load times are important.

I had to write a review on this drive I just received yesterday the Nov 11 2020. I purchased the Samsung portable SSD T7 , 500 GB. I had watched a lot of youtube videos on how to boot from an external drive. And I recommend that you do too. I now have the computer start from the portable SSD. And it starts so quick. Before the computer took appx 2 minutes from pressing the power button to be ready. Now it takes about 35 seconds to be ready. This is the same computer from 2015 , that now is like a brand new race car computer. If I could do it, I think anyone can. We shall see ,as after reading these reviews I hope the drive lasts. Good luck, watch it on youtube first and you can do it too. In system preferences I used starter disk and selected the SSD as the starter disk. I downloaded from the app store OS Catalina, and when it asks you where to install it , install it on the SSD drive. But remember to erase the SSD and format it. Thank you for your time. THE STEPS I DESCRIBED ARE NOT IN THE ORDER I COMPLETED THEM, SO PLEASE DO NOT FOLLOW THE STEPS I LISTED AS A LIST TO DO.

Great piece, I use it for editing 4k video and it works great and fast.

This transfer data over pretty fast compared to an older HDD drive. This is the perfect match for a PS5

Usb C-3 super speed

Brought because l trust this brand over XScan. And Samsung makes quality products while l have come to trust

It looks good, works great. How much more could one ask of an external drive?

Slim, fast and efficient.

Was transferring old files from earlier external USB hard drive and it took 3 days to move the file. This took less than an hour!
