Dust Magnet!
I like everything about this SSD except the rubberised finish - it's a dust magnet and it looks grubby all the time. Samsung needs to fix this. Brushed Aluminium would be better.

8tb of must have that you never knew you needed
I've been using the T5 EVO USB 3.2 8T portable SSD for the last few months and at first I thought I was insane for thinking I needed so many terabytes of memory, yet after the this years installment of call of duty mwiii, I now can appreciate the storage capacity of this device. I've also been able to install several video game rom dumps, something that I previously never even considered doing due to limited storage space. I'm so extremely satisfied with my purchase, not only because of the available space, but because I leisurely don't even have to think about space ever and it's a beautiful thing to not constantly worry about deleting files, games, pictures and basically everything just because of a single update or bug fix. Having an additional 8tb of memory is exactly why the term "worry free" even exists in my vocabulary. I highly recommend this ssd to anyone abs everyone especially if you work, play or use your PC on a daily basis. It's an absolute must have and I promise, you will be thanking me for this recommendation after your first peak of all of your glorious memory space available in your drive. It's just stunning and beautiful.

WHEN YOU FILL IT UP WITH 3/4 it is DEAD! the write
Initially, I thought about replacing my 8TB QVO + Enclosure with a smaller SSD. So, I purchased the 8TB version. However, I encountered significant slowdowns in write speed, dropping to 2MB-50MB/s, especially after filling it with more than 6TB of data (I don't recall the exact amount). Copying the last 300GB files took an excessively long time, about 24 hours. This slow performance made the SSD impractical for my needs. I suspect this product wasn't thoroughly tested before release. Consequently, I had to revert to my original 8TB QVO + Enclosure setup. Unfortunately, since I purchased it overseas, I can't return or get a refund for the SSD.
Now I left 170GB free space, I done the speed test with app, shows write is just 0.3MB/s, but read still can go up to 350MB/s
and write to the drive is like freeze, slow motion, spinning ball on Mac.

Amazing Features
I've been using the Portable SSD T5 EVO USB 3.2 8TB (Black) for a few months now, and it's been an absolute game-changer for my storage needs. Here's my experience with this SSD: Design and Portability The first thing I noticed was its sleek, compact design. It's very lightweight and fits easily into my pocket or laptop bag, which is perfect for someone like me who is always on the move. The black aluminum casing not only looks great but feels sturdy and durable. Speed and Performance The speed is incredible! Transferring large_ files is super fast, thanks to the USB 3.2 interface. I use it mainly for video editing, and it handles 4K video files with ease. I've noticed a significant decrease in loading times compared to my old external hard drive.

Can't Even Describe How Bad This Is
Literally a piece of junk. I have a high end system and enough tech savy to at least do some medium to advanced troubleshooting, but all leading to failure. Transfer rates at 5-20 mbps... Intermittent pausing. All this happens on multiple computers and multiple ports. The 8TB was appealing. Too bad it's unuseable. The ability to have fast, dependable transfer rates should be a gived with an SSD. It should not be nuanced. WD and SanDisk have delivered this to me. Samsung has done the opposite. I hate to flush this much money down the toilet but it is what it is. Frankly this whole experience has turned me off to the whole Samsung brand altogether. Way too much money to just flush down the toilet.

Mostly good with one really annoying quirk
I use this drive primarily as a backup drive. The pros are that it is very compact and quiet, easy to use, and in most cases has decent transfer speeds for an external drive.
But in my usage so far, it has one really annoying quirk: if you try to transfer too much data at once, it will transfer quickly for the first part then after a certain point the transfer speed will slow down significantly to like kB/s speeds. In my first use, tried to transfer 2.7 TB at once and it held steady speeds in the ~200-300 MB/s range for the first ~1.6 TB, then literally dropped to 0.4 MB/s and stayed there for over 12 hours before I just canceled the transfer. The drive didn't overheat as I was monitoring the temperature with HWInfo and it stayed around 40 C, so it wasn't a heat issue. For some reason, the way the drive is controlled causes this.
I've worked around this by doing big transfers in blocks. When I break a 2 TB transfer into blocks of 500 GB, for example, it'll keep high transfer speeds for each block. So it is a little annoying that I can't just set up a large transfer in one go, but otherwise it works well if you work around those limitations.
