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

I loaded 1.6 TB worth of HD music files onto T5 from PC (large groups of files copied over very fast using a USB 3.0 connection, and no chokes/crashes), plugged the drive into a DAC (USB 3.0) and havent looked for it since. Accessing the drive via the DAC (on TV menu) acts like the files reside internally in the DAC; there is no hesitation. Scrolling through music files/folders is snappy compared to the rotating hard drive (USB 3) I was using. The T5 drive is so fast (ready) that the DAC doesnt go through a new device added each time I power-on... unlike the previous rotating external hard-drive that became ready about 20 seconds later causing the DAC to think I had just plugged in a USB drive. If youve used a SanDisk Extreme flash drive, the T5 is at least that fast and runs just warm (even after a good work-out copying 1.6 TB). The 5T draws zero attention to itself and hasnt stuttered. Im not a huge fan of all things Samsung, but this T5 is kinda awesome. Ding one star for length of supplied cables.

Unit is fast and reliable

Small and powerful. Top SSD for a rig set-up. Get it.

Excellent. In fact I bought another one as a backup of the first.

This device is so helpful to me because I have so much on my computer and need to store the things that I do not need access to right away. When I need it, it will be there. It also allows me to clean up my documents on my computer so all the things that I have are more organized and stored where I need them.

I have 3 of these external hard drives for my Black magic. CFAST cards are handy, but so much more expensive compared to these. They are slim, sturdy, resistant, and very portable. The write speeds are fast and Ive been enjoying having these in my gear case and I usually end up working off of them after I name and organize my files.

I use this disk as a primary disk and he works perfectly and now is my iMac as new.

Love it, 2 T, this Samsung T 5 is Great, fast, prtable.. I am a Mac user ( IPad, Iphone, Imac) works GREAT!

simplemente lo que necesitaba: mis archivos son mi trabajo, años de trabajo, y poder llevarlos en la palma de la mano es “tranquilidad”

Funciona bien hasta el momento.
