    • Fast and huge storage.
Capacity: 4 TB
Very reliable, SSD so it doesn't heat up, very easy to use and the size is great. The design is great also. Just plug in and you're ready to go. I have over 2000 movies and pictures on my drive with room to spare.

    • As Advertised.
Capacity: 8 TB
Though Its Slower Than Most USB SSDs At 460MB/s (10 Gbps and 20 Gbps Drives), Its A Massive 8 TB Drive That Has A Sustained USB 3.2 Gen 1 Speed Of (5 Gbps). Attracts A Lot Of Dust On Its Surface, But Its Solid & Well Built. Its Still A Lot Faster Than Conventional Hard Drives & Worth Every Penny. I Can Recommend This For Data Storage & Transfer, But Not For 4K Video Editing. ... show more

    • Huge Capacity, Fast and Reliable
Capacity: 8 TB
I use an external computer drive to store media files for use with my iTunes music and video library. This SSD, at the new price point, is great value for so much storage with the amazing access speed and reliability advantages over any hard disk device, which is what I am replacing. I also like that I can easily plug it into any of my other devices, such as phone or tablet, to use the media or to share very large files between the devices. SSDs are clearly now at a price-storage point where fully abandoning hard disks is easy. The fact that I have put many such devices through the wash and dry cycles when I left them in a pocket is just the cherry on top (but I would note that although pretty small compared to disks, it seems unlikely I would leave this one in a pocket). ... show more

    • Samsung Quality is the Best and the Brand that I trust with my data
Capacity: 8 TB
I buy samsung as it is the only drive that always works, as I had other ones fail. What is nice about this unit is that it doesn't get super hot transfering data and is super sturdy with this nice grippy silicone material on it. Have several units and they work great. Yes they are a slightly slower transfer speed that some other ones, however not noticeable even with video editing. What is also nice is that it comes in 8tb versions. ... show more

    • Update: Crashed yesterday and required formatting / Excellent speeds and memory stick like size
Capacity: 8 TB
The media could not be loaded. Update: It unfortunately crashed yesterday all of a sudden and required formatting. I could access it, therefore had to format. Lost all of my data BUT was fortunate enough that I had a second 8TB Samsung Evo. Took me all night to copy all files again from one SSD into another. Be careful and try to keep 3 copies of your files on different devices for such occasions. Taking my words back regarding that SSD being awesome. Appears to be not reliable at all. --------------- I was not sure whether to buy it or not since I saw a lot of negative feedbacks here. I am happy that I decided to go with it and purchased it. I have attached a 13 sec. video without any blurring where you can see openly that I reached an average of 250-260 MB/S speed when I was writing big video files onto my T5 EVO, 8 TB. Take into account that I have been copying from T7 Shield, 4 TB. connected directly to Type-C input on my laptop to T5 EVO, 8 TB connected to docking station through Type-A, USB 3.0. Nevertheless, I have got the mentioned speed of writing. For the small files, the speeds of writing get slower and be sometimes around 15-20 MB/S, but it happens with all drives of such type. For me, it is NOT a decisive factor since I use T7 Shield SSDs (I have 4 of them, 4 TB. each) and T5 EVO, 8 TB. to backup my files and do not constantly erase and write new files. Also, plays smoothly on my Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra smartphone. Highly recommend this product since it is small and can easily accommodate into anybody's pocket and it is so convenient to carry it with yourself at any times. ... show more

    • Yes, it is blazing fast
Capacity: 8 TB
In limited use, this drive is blindingly fast, extremely compact, runs on bus power (i.e., power provided by the host), and works with Windows, macOS, iOS, iPadOS, etc. Can't really think of anything bad to say, though black, while basic, is also boring. A nice, deep blue would have been cool.

    • lots of digital storage but sometimes gives random errors or is slow
Capacity: 4 TB
I use it to keep my files from a Win10 laptop and a Win 11 laptop. It keeps the files from both devices conveniently available for whichever laptop I'm using. It's usually pretty fast but occasionally 'chokes' and thinks it's full of data or not ready requiring another attempt to save the file. the small form factor makes it quite portable. ... show more
