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

Works flawlessly, fast and great for Lightroom photos.

Used this sdd for my ps5 and it worked great

This is not a Samsung original drive. I went to Samsungs website and tried to register it and it said the serial number and a model number are not recognizable. So the next one will come directly from what Samsung website.

plug and play

I was thinking of building my own portable SSD by using NVM.e or a 2.5 SSD and put in enclosure, but I dont think it will look as nice as this. Speed seems fast as I normally just use this to transfer files less than 4GB.

Using it for video storage. SSD is always ready and quick access no matter how far I dig in the files.

Seems surprisingly slow to transfer from old quad Mac mini via 3.0 lightning adapter. But will try with windows 3.0 soon. Overall happy as I know it’s gotta be faster.

Need to turn off fast boot. Took few days to figure it out. You can lose project if you think its a simple HDD

I got the Samsung T5 SSD 2TB for my Mac Pro tower. At first it was fine. They, every few days it would randomly start disconnecting or ejecting while copying files. The problem is that it would not mount after that. This required reformatting the drive each time. Disk Utility along with Disk Warrior both report hardware failure issues. But those warnings to away once the drive is reformatted (extended, journaled) again. Then, a few days later, it would eject while copying and not mount again - thus requiring another reformat and erasing everything on the drive. Im using Mavericks (not High Sierra). I reformat and she works again... until the next time...

I use this as a back-up drive for my laptop, stuck to the case with 3M Velcro. So far, so good.
