Samsung T7 Portable SSD 1TB - Up to 1050MB/s - USB 3.2 External Solid State Drive, Blue (MU-PC1T0H/AM)

Recently bought a new Mac so couldn’t understand why it was taking sooooo long for photos to upload, switch between albums and edit. A friend recommended the Samsung T7 which has been a lifesaver! Super quick, I couldn’t be more pleased, everything is now instant and I am one happy lady! Definitely recommend the T7

I purchased this external drive after having problems with other brands of drives . It is perfect for using with a laptop computer; especially when travelling. I had also purchased a case for it for travelling and so far, I have been happy with it. The drive arrived in good time and was securely packaged.

I use this as an external SSD to edit my videos using Final Cut Pro with. It's not as fast as the internal SSD on my Macbook, but it's fast enough not to get the spinning beach ball at any point.

Have used this for months and it holds so many photos/vids that I have not filled it up. Well made as are most Samsung items,

easy to set up and use and quick

Amazon cocked up and sent a 1TB SSD instead of the 2TB SSD ordered. The price for the replacement then went up by £8.64. Hardly seems like a fair deal.

Great Storage Device Easy to set up with security log in A lot quicker than standard HDD and a lot smaller too

Works well with my Apple Studio. I was surprised at how much faster 2022 external storage is (compared to ~4 years ago) with latest USB standards.

Light and easy

I bought the Samsung T7 2TB portable SSD mainly to give my older 2017 Mac a new lease on life. The internal 500GB platter style hard drive drive in that machine was painfully slow, so I set up macOS to run directly off the T7. The difference was night and day — boot times dropped to seconds, apps opened almost instantly, and overall the computer felt like a brand-new machine. Honestly, it sped things up exponentially compared to the stock drive. Beyond that, the T7 has been great for general storage and file transfers. It’s small, lightweight, and built solid with its aluminum casing, so I don’t worry about tossing it in my bag. Transfer speeds are fast enough that moving large projects doesn’t feel like a chore anymore, and I haven’t had any reliability issues. It also stays cool during everyday use, which isn’t always the case with portable SSDs. Compared to the older external hard drives I used before, this is in another league for both speed and portability. Against other portable SSDs, I think Samsung’s combination of performance and reliability is hard to beat at this price point. If you have an older computer that’s slowing you down, or you just need fast and dependable storage on the go, the T7 is an excellent choice. For me, it completely transformed the usability of my Mac and has become a tool I use every single day.

A transfer speed of 1050MB/s is decent compared to SATA disk drives. In the SSD category, it is average but addresses the needs of most situations and uses. I got the 2TB size, the most convenient option per MB, and a capacity large enough to serve as a backup unit when considering this device on the road. Its pocket size and weight are significant features, making this product an ideal solution for almost every need and situation. All my previous experiences with Samsung external SSD have been highly successful, never experiencing any hardware failure or data loss. I guess this red T7 will emulate its predecessors, but only time will tell.

Very good

SSD drives are way faster than the old spinning platters in disk drives. Downloading large photography files (from a 42 MP Nikon Z7ii) to this drive is just blazing fast. And it's really quick and responsive when attached to my Macbook. The small size makes it really easy to bring along when traveling or going to do a presentation somewhere. While there have been some quality control issues with the Samsung 4 Tb SSD drive, I've heard nothing but praise for the 1 Tb version. Mine has performed perfectly and I'm very pleased with it. I'm imagining that this would be a great product for people doing video because it's so fast.
