> 3 dayOnly negative is the connection / jack for the USB cable feels like it is not supper high quality. The drive is fast and I can run my virtual machine from it at a decent speed.

Greater than one weekThis is an amazing product from the inside out. Listed speeds reached and exceeded... That being said, this is ridiculously overpriced. I had immediate buyers remorse and returned it. I would pay $300-375 for this. My 6 year old WD 2TB external HDD that sells for $56 currently is slow, yes, but I dont mind afking for 10min or so.

10-06-2025The app for Macs that comes with this drive proved to be malware, making it impossible to use other portable drives. There is no simple way to delete this app, you can confirm that by reading the online manual. I was not able to get help from Samsung until several weeks after I had delete the app by erasing my entire internal drive and restoring it from a backup. I then had to reformat the older drives to make them usable again. A couple of weeks after going through all that I finally got an email response from Samsung. Another problem with this product was that even though I ejected it according to instructions, then next time I used it I would always get a message saying that it was not properly ejected.

> 3 dayI was actually surprised at how small and light the drive was when I got it. Im using it on a 2017 13 MacBook Pro and have it formatted with APFS (Encrypted). While Im not seeing the quoted average up to speeds of 500+ MB/s, they are still impressive (see screenshot). I use this drive for my video editing (scratch disk and saving). It works great for Final Cut Pro and ScreenFlow Pro.

Greater than one weekTo put it simply, I dont trust the cloud no matter who owns the cloud. This device was a perfect fit for my wifes mid-2011 iMac to provide a backup that I could trust. Once received I connected it, formatted it (erase in the Apple language), and within minutes I had begun creating a backup using the Apple Time Machine app. I turned OFF automatic backups and opted for manual operation. Once per week is all that is necessary for my wife (the Time Machine default is once per hour -- ridiculous). Very happy with the results. Would recommend without reservation. (Only three stars on the Tech Support because I did not use it because I did not need it.)

06-06-2025Works great, makes editing videos much quicker. I have an older mac, so Id advise against updating the software. Once i updated the software i could no longer access the drive. I made the mistake of doing so, and I had to contact Samsung to get undo it. I wish I could remember the guys name that helped me, but he was awesome and stayed on the phone through the entire process until it was fixed. Props to Samsung tech.
