Compact Powerhouse for All Your Storage Needs!

Reviewed in the United States on April 28, 2024

Color: BlackCapacity: 4 TBVerified Purchase

I am absolutely thrilled with the SAMSUNG T7 Shield 4TB Portable SSD! A friend recommended it, and it has exceeded my expectations. This SSD offers a massive amount of storage, which was exactly what I was looking for—and it still provides room to spare even after transferring all my files from the cloud.

Its compact and lightweight design is a huge plus, making it incredibly easy to carry around. I primarily use it with my Mac, and it works flawlessly. The portability and capacity of the T7 Shield make it ideal for anyone who deals with large files on the go, such as in video editing or graphic design. It handles large files smoothly, making my workflow much more efficient.

I would definitely recommend this portable SSD to anyone who needs reliable, spacious, and transportable storage. It’s a top-notch choice for professionals and casual users alike!

Excellent Big Little Drive!

Reviewed in the United States on May 4, 2024

Color: BlackCapacity: 4 TBVerified Purchase

Here's what you need to know. Many reviewers knock this device saying the speed doesn't live up to the advertising. The speed depends on some variables, such as the application you are using and the connection to your computer.

It is as fast as it says. If you have an older USB port on your computer, that will slow transfer rates.

The thing is worth the money since it's Solid State with no moving parts which removes a huge failure point!

Lightweight, smaller than your cell phone, and easy to carry.

Plan to buy a second to replace my backup drive.

A feeling of total security that all of my data is contained ‘offline’ and in my sole possession

Reviewed in the United States on April 8, 2024

Color: BlackCapacity: 4 TBVerified Purchase

Rather than parking my data on the ‘Cloud’ or for that matter on someone else’s (fee paid) company computer, I decided in backing-up all of my important documents, files, pictures, music and especially financial data on one small and powerful Samsung 4TB SSD drive. As such and over the past 8-months or so, the high quality Samsung T7 has served me exceedingly well. Offering me a feeling of total security that all of my sensitive data is not only contained offline, but totally safe and most importantly being in my sole possession. Having available the Samsung T7 instant storage, I further erased and moved any and all of my important or sensitive information away from my laptop and desktop PC. Another added security measure in the compromised times of today. I am very happy in having purchased the Samsumg T7 SSD and will probably purchase another as the need arises. So for me the T7 is a recommended purchase all the way.

The hard drive is super small in size, and way faster than the the external HDD drives it’s replacing. connecting and setting it up was super easy, and on my Mac mini it assigning it as the time capsule device was easy as 123. The external construction of the hard drive is strong and durable, and is very unassuming in its style for disappearing within the set up of the office. Highly recommended!

So nice I bought it twice

Reviewed in the United States on April 27, 2024

Color: BlackCapacity: 2 TBVerified Purchase

I should have bought the 4TB but buying two of the 2TB was cheaper than the 4TB at the time. I've had several external drives over the years and, of course, technology changes and improves, but this is the best external drive I've had. It's quicker and more portable than the one it replaced, which are big wins. Highly recommend it, but would suggest waiting for a sale on the 4TB. Regardless, this is a great pick.

It's a Samsung SSD, what more can I say?

Reviewed in the United States on May 2, 2024

Color: BlackCapacity: 4 TBVerified Purchase

I'm using this as a backup for audio/video files, and it's excellent. I still can't get over how four terabytes can fit in your pants pocket, but I understand there are now terabyte-sized micro-SD cards, so...

This is solid. I haven't used any of the software, I simply plugged it in, built a folder structure, and drag/dropped my files. It's fast and easy. Great purchase.

Excellent Product - Remember to Use Good Data Migration Process

Reviewed in the United States on February 16, 2024

Color: BlackCapacity: 4 TBVerified Purchase

I have 10 Samsung SSDs, from the 2TB T5, 2TB T7, and now the T7 4GB Shield suite. They have all been excellent. The Shield is a bit heavier (by 1.4 grams more, I believe). I did require technical support for the T7 Shield - disconnecting from Mac periodically during heavy data transfer; the service was excellent and patient over the phone and they gave me Samsung Magician software to check firmware (needed update) and also monitor temperature. This fixed my problem completely. Please, if you're doing a large data transfer, do it in small chunks and monitor the temperature with Samsung Magician. I put mine on a cloth over one of those food cooler "ice" pads. I continuously monitored the temperature of the two drives while moving data trying to keep it below 90 degrees F. I was moving nearly 2TB of data. I spread the process over two sessions, yesterday and today. I tried to keep the chunks in the 30 GB range, continuously monitoring the temperature. Worked beautifully. You don't want to overheat these drives because you can do permanent damage. This situation will only be an issue during large data migration and not during normal use. Second caution to SSD owners: Always have a backup for your SSD. I know it means buying extra SSD storage, but it's better to be safe than sorry. Do not ever rely on just single layer of protection. Always back up everything on a second drive.

Uma das melhores opções para armazenamento portátil

O HD me surpreendeu pela qualidade de acabamento, tamanho físico, funcionalidade e velocidade. Estrutura muito robusta, para quem precisa carregar consigo a diversos lugares, é uma tranquilidade ainda mais com a proteção de água IP65. Taxa de transferência de dados (rapidez) excelente. Para quem geralmente tem grande quantidade de arquivos de backup ou necessita de taxas de transferência encorpadas para atividade específicas (edição de vídeo por exemplo), o produto atende bem e é uma excelente escolha. O preço é um pouco salgado mas do ponto de vista da qualidade, quantidade de armazenamento (4T) e tecnologia envolvida (SSD), o valor sob esse ponto de vista é aceitável. Ultimamente tenho dado preferência apenas à marca Samsung em relação à HDs por conta da confiabilidade e durabilidade usual da marca, já que outras marcas concorrentes famosas tem apresentado diversos problemas relatados por usuários. Enfim, para mim foi uma ótima escolha.
