SAMSUNG T7 500GB, Portable SSD, up to 1050MB/s, USB 3.2 Gen2, Gaming, Students, & Professionals, External Solid State Drive (MU-PC2T0R/AM), Red

Very portable, nicely made, easy to use and effective.

These are always a great item, and a great deal. I have several and use them prolifically

Nice speeds, looks clean runs well. affordable. Yeah SSD ftw

This thing is super small and so much faster than I expected. I mainly got it to store pictures on, and I’m super happy with it so far.

Backing up using time machine takes less than an hour for 30/35gbs.

This thing is awesome! Super lightweight, can pack in anywhere for traveling, and it doesnt get very warm at all. I use it on my Xbox One S. Load times for my games that I transferred to it were cut drastically. No longer am I the last player to load into a match or fast travel to a mission. My only regret is that I didnt buy the bigger storage version and put all my games on it. Deffinately recommend for any gamer looking to reduce load in times.

Works fine, in my case MacBook Pro 16 2019 with USB-C 3.1 Gen 2 (Apple claims 3.1 is AKA 3.2), IRL speed for moving files from the MacBook Pro onto the drive is ~350 MB/s. I did erase the drive and converted the file system to APFS, so this might account for the discrepancy in the I/O metrics. I was moving a total transfer load of 350GB with a combination of small files (1k-4mb) and large files (5gb - 150gb). Overall way much faster than USB3, however not quite 1GB/s as advertised, still this was well within my expectations. Several buyers mentioned the unit runs hot, however from experience with other external drives over the years, I think it runs about as hot as any other device Ive previously owned, so not a big deal IMO.

Was charged restocking fee on a defective item!

Might be my imagination, but it was slightly slower that its big brother (1 TB). But still, pretty fast for writing. I dumped a 112GB directory tree into it (pictures of various sizes). Could sustain 320MB/s, with peaks of 800+ MB/s. Not bad. It was missing the USB-C to USB-C cable, but Amazon was willing to work with me on that.

Backup external disk drive. Will transfer massive amounts of data from internal disk drive quickly
