This Samsung external drive is exactly what you’d expect from the brand – reliable, fast, and built to last. It’s been a perfect solution for my backup needs, offering plenty of storage space and consistent performance. The compact design makes it easy to carry around, yet it feels sturdy enough to handle daily use. Pros: ✔ Trusted Samsung quality ✔ Fast data transfer speeds ✔ Compact and portable ✔ Plug-and-play simplicity ✔ Great value for the storage capacity Cons: ✖ Basic design (no fancy extras, but that’s not why you buy it) Verdict: When it comes to storage, Samsung rarely misses – and this drive is no exception. Whether for work, photos, or system backups, it’s a dependable choice that won’t let you down.

I have several of these drives now, which I've been using for nearly 5 years and which I use for Time Machine for my Mac and as storage for a lot of valuable archive material, including large audio and video files. These drives are superb - incredibly fast, reliable and astonishingly small. Previously doing back up or storing archive material was so laborious because the various hard drives I had were always runnig out of space and reorganising files between multiple drives was insanely slow. These drives solve that problem - everything is so quick and easy now.

The Samsung Portable SSD T7 (MU-PC1T0T/WW) is hands down the best hard drive I have ever had the pleasure of using. First and foremost, the speed of this SSD is mind-blowing. With read speeds of up to 1050 MB/s and write speeds of up to 1000 MB/s, it delivers lightning-fast data transfers and significantly reduces waiting time. It has revolutionized the way I work with large files and has made data backup a breeze. The compact and sleek design is not only aesthetically pleasing but also incredibly portable. It fits comfortably in my pocket, making it the ideal companion for on-the-go professionals and creative individuals. The build quality is exceptional, as expected from Samsung. It feels solid and durable, giving me confidence in its reliability for long-term use. Compatibility with USB 3.2 Gen.2 ensures versatility and fast connections with various devices. Whether I'm working on my laptop, transferring files to my desktop, or even using it with my gaming console, the Samsung T7 performs flawlessly. In summary, the Samsung Portable SSD T7 is a game-changer in the world of storage solutions. It's the epitome of speed, portability, and reliability, making it an absolute must-have for anyone in need of high-performance storage. Without a doubt, a well-deserved 5-star rating for this exceptional hard drive!

Didn't encounter any issues except I had to reformat the SSD to GUID before convert it to APFS system. Speed was impressive but the size is a bit of a letdown after using Micron Crucial SSD, a bit heavier too.

The Samsung T7 Portable SSD has exceeded my expectations. Transfer speeds are incredibly fast — large video files move in seconds, and working directly off the drive feels almost as smooth as using my internal SSD. Perfect for editing projects on the go. The size is another big plus: it’s small, lightweight, and fits easily in a pocket or laptop sleeve. Despite its compact form, it feels solid and well-built, with a sleek metal casing that also helps dissipate heat. Setup was simple — just plug and play. Samsung’s software for password protection and encryption is also a nice bonus for extra security. One small note: since it’s so tiny and light, it’s easy to misplace, so I recommend keeping it in a case or pouch. Other than that, no complaints

I love this thing, tiny, lovely looking ( I have the red one and yes I know looks don't matter with this type of product but it just looks great!). Normally I have an NVME drive in a separate USB 3 or TB enclosure and run it through TB as I have a Macstudio, but I also have Windows laptops that don't have superspeed connections that I use the drives with so I thought this time I would give one of these a go. I also bought the little groovy case for protection. It's still super small (did I mention that?) so not much more to it than one of the USBC NVME enclosures, feels a little sturdier and I get decent speeds. I know that the price of storage has fallen but as of this review on 14th Sept it's £65.99 for the 1 TB, that's madness compared to where we have been before and actually not that far removed from the price of making one yourself. Ok, so the downside compared to making one yourself is it seems to be so well made you can't swap it out for another drive yourself. There may be a way but it doesn't seem obvious to me, but that is the only downside. I imagine that's for protection because it feels sturdy as heck, and literally fits in the palm of my hand. The question is if I had the same need would I buy one again or do as I usually do and put one together myself? Well unless you have TB speeds or 3.2x2 where you would feel the benefit from making a faster drive this would do you more than fine. It reached the advertised speeds, is super sturdy, super small, lovely looking and tactile with a marginal price difference between it and making one yourself with the same speed. So, unless you need to swap out the disks then go for it, If you do then think for a minute and decide if the many plus points outweigh the need. I have no regrets about buying this but then it is for a particular use case.

This drive is tiny and fast! Amazing how technology has packed so much into a small device. I remember lugging around an old school hard drive mounted in a case with a power supply. About the size of a cigar box. I have several of the Samsung and would buy again.

The Samsung T7 Portable SSD is one of the best portable drives for 2025, offering an excellent balance of speed, security, and portability at a competitive price. It’s perfect for content creators, gamers, and professionals on the go, though those needing water resistance or longer warranties might consider alternatives like the SanDisk Extreme Pro or Samsung T7 Shield.

Everything you could want it to be.

It's great, no complaints at all

I use this to clone my Mac and PC disks. They have worked without a hitch for what seems like forever. A very good product.

Petit SSD qui fonctionne très bien.
