## Description

We went big and made it portable. It’s the T5 EVO—an ideal choice for gamers and content creators. This SSD is engineered to handle large file transfers while still small and nimble enough to take along on all your adventures. *Based on a free fall shock test conducted under controlled conditions. **Host device compatibility may vary. ***Source: 2003-2022 OMDIA data: NAND suppliers' revenue market share.

Review: It is not the fastest backup device, but it is the most stable I have ever encountered. Speed is decent at about 200–300 Mbps. As expected, backing up files on a computer is a walk in the park. What surprised me was backing up my Samsung S23 cell phone. I selected some files totaling 31.1GB, and it took about 20 minutes to finish the job. Upon completion, I deleted 3 files and tested its restore capability. It was successfully restored without a hitch. I recommend this backup device without reservations. It is portable, versatile and user-friendly.

Had to leave this review. This is the by far one of the best external hard drives (SSD) ever. I have had it a little over a year and a half and it's super portable. Hard to believe 8TB fits on such a compact device. Well worth the money if you need the portability and space. Perfect for daily use while using other larger memory for backups.
