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

Great storage device for the price

Great storage capacity and very small drive. Lightweight - super fast read right speed. Was able to perform a full TimeMachine back up of a 2TB drive in just under an hour!

I was amazed at how fast things back up with this SAMSUNG T5 Portable SSD 2TB. It seems very stable with the SSD vs a spinning disc. Its also incredibly light and portable. I bought the XANAD Case for Samsung T3 T5 Portable and its the perfect combo for travel. I used to lug around bigger, slower back up drives, and this solution is a total winner!

Très bon rapport qualité/prix/fiabilité

On board encryption, portable, very handy. We bought more after testing one.

Fast delivery and a all around great experience.

This particular drive is being used as a boot drive on an older system - you would think using a USB3 connection to a USB-C SSD wouldnt be fast enough to get the job done but its excellent performance, speed and quickness makes for an excellent boot drive for legacy systems. I even bought one for the wifes computer to help that one along. A great value for the price. It is so small it will literally fit in your shirt pocket and contains velcro so you could velcro the unit to the back of a PC tower or display. Verified works fine on both Windows and Mac systems if formatted for such things. Next time Id get the larger version to have a larger overall boot drive on the system but this will be a great carry around emergency boot drive for any system.

Awesome portable ssd! The speed of moving stuff is reliably instantaneous. Plus the 2 tb of storage is great for anything I will throw on it.

I thought mine was actually defective. Why? I bought it primarily to play games, but even though the load times were fast, the games lagged like you wouldnt believe. I saw people say thats what you get for getting an EXTERNAL SSD! before they, presumably, spit on the ground.

For a 1TB SSD, the Samsung T5 has a small footprint. Im using it for video editing and its working flawlessly for me.
