Rated 5 out of 5 by from App difficult. Utilize memory easy for tech person The outer case is well made. Rugged,easy to carry and store. Size is very minute for such a large capacity. The app is difficult to operate and kept formatting when connected to an Android device. Finally, the actual memory is easy to connect once my F-I-L formatted it into a sharable drive. Now I can use with my MacBook Air and will retry using Android when I update my phone to a 2024 model. I will update this aftward.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Fast, Reliable, Rugged, and tons of Storage! Bought the T7 Shield about a year ago, and LOVE it. It is fast! I can transfer large files from my Galaxy s23 Ultra to my MacBook Pro with no issues. It has plenty of storage space for all your needs. Most of my electronics are Samsung (TVs, Blu-ray player, phones, tablets, watches, headphones, and considering the new ring), and have little to no issues with any of them. You can't go wrong with a Samsung product.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Blazing fast My thougjts on this drive are that it is secure with built in encryption. Updates are provided frequently and it is lightning fast. I only wish Samsung could incorporate an app to use it as a storage backup device for all of my Samsung devices. Instead of transfering my phone files to the drive via pc, it would be nice to transfer files from usb c to usb c. Excellently drive otherwise. Can't go wrong with its solid built quality and robustness.

I have a samsung galaxy s23 ultra with a t7 and I cannot transfer videos or anything from my phone to the ssd. You're better off buying a regular ssd and an adapter with usbc. I have a cheap micro SD card which I use for drone footage which has no problems transferring files back and forth. They also claim the t7 is quick. Certainly cannot compete with a micro SD card you van buy at Walmart for $20.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Game-changer all-terrain SSD! I'm a System Administrator at my company and when it comes to portable storage for backups, sensitive information, or even personal data, my go-to has been, is, and will be Samsung. I've had several Samsung portable SSDs throughout this years, but there's a special place in my life for the T7 Shield ones, for several reasons: 1. They're just timeproof, I've had a couple with 4TB capacity for almost 3 years now, I use them every day since I have my personal files and games there, and they're as good as when I first used them. 2. They're very sturdy, I take good care of them, but accidents happen, and I've had more than a few, I've dropped them, dropped some solid stuff on them; even one day I fell and my T7 Shield flew for a bunch of feet before impacting a wall and nothing happened to it, not a single scratch. The rubber cover is just amazing. 3. The speed of these little guys is insane, I've transfered heavy files (over 50GB) in just a few minutes. 4. Speaking of accidents, I've dropped liquids on them (my water bottle tipped) and absolutely nothing happened, it was then when I believed that they really had an IP65 water and dust resistant rating. Overall, it's a great product with great capabilities and features, it's not expensive, and even if it is more expensive than other brands with the same capacity or speeds, just remember, features makes the difference, it's better to have them and not need them, than need them and not have them.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Sturdy, fast, portable, lightweight. I bought this about 7 months ago and I am so happy I bought it. It's worth every penny. Super fast for my usage, lots of space to store my personal stuff like documents, photos, videos softwares etc. The most important above all is it's portability it's so lightweight and small in size you don't even know you are carrying it in your pocket, easy to connect with USB C cable which comes along with the hdd. Guys it's STURDY STURDY AND STURDY enough even when is falls down from a height as it happened in my case 2 to 3 times. It fell from a table of height of 3 to 4 feets you just plug it to your machine and it works as if nothing has happened.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Easy to use It was so easy to set up and password protected. I have WD and it stopped working pretty quickly, think it's the cord which has a specific connection, so you can't get a new cord even with recovery plan. The T7 has a standard USB/C cable, light weight, and carrying case. I use it to keep important documents backed up, my University class files and my gaming (my laptop is old and need to keep as much as possible free). I planned ahead and got the 4T. Still so much space available.

Highly secured password protection, not worried it lost or stolen, I know my data is secured.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Better than most I bought 2 of these. They work wonderfully. However, they only come in 1 color and the form factor prevents labeling. Also, if I use both at the same time, they may disconnect. I believe it is a power consumption issue. There should be a split power cable such as offered by other companies. Finally, this drive got really hot while I was upgrading to it. Since it is 4TB, it should be able to run continously for a longer time than a smaller drive.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Awesome drive I always trusted Samsung for it's memory components. They're the best and most reliable in the industry. This drive has great build quality, a Stealth look, IP65 water resistant, rugged, and Decent speed. Also 4TB!!!! This is precisely what I was waiting for. The only thing I had hoped for was the true NVME speeds this drive lacks. But possibly they didn't release at that speed because of the overheating and reliability at those higher speeds. Sandisk G40 Pro is achieving 2k speeds but that's crazy expensive. I think this is the sweet spot. Will be looking forward to the faster speed drives Samsung is going to release in the future.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great Features I've been using personal computers since the 70s, and I know the frustration of data loss and system reinstalls due to hard drive crashes. After countless failures, I finally upgraded to this little marvel of technology. I partitioned the drive into four sections of about 1TB each: one for the OS, one for documents and photos, one for downloads, and one for miscellaneous storage. The read/write speed is impressively fast, and I love that I can take everything with me if needed. It's like having a reliable companion for all my digital needs! If you're interested in maintaining your data as seamlessly as I do, you might want to explore resources like MyAnimeForLife for tips on efficient data management. Yes, I wholeheartedly recommend this product!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from A Rugged, High-Performance Powerhouse I've been using the Samsung T7 Shield 4TB Portable SSD for a few months now, and it has quickly become an essential part of my workflow. As a professional photographer, I need reliable, high-speed storage that can keep up with my demanding needs and withstand the rigors of on-location shoots. This SSD does all that and more. First off, the build quality is exceptional. The rugged design and IP65 rating give me peace of mind knowing that my data is safe from dust, water, and accidental drops. It's also surprisingly lightweight for its size, making it easy to carry around on the go. Performance-wise, the T7 Shield doesn't disappoint. Transfer speeds are blazing fast, thanks to the USB 3.2 Gen 2 interface and NVMe technology. I've noticed a significant improvement in my workflow efficiency, as I can now quickly transfer large batches of high-resolution photos and videos without any lag or delays. The 4TB capacity is a lifesaver for someone like me who deals with massive file sizes daily. It's reassuring to know that I have plenty of space to store my projects without constantly worrying about running out of storage. One minor nitpick is that the drive tends to get a bit warm during extended use, but it's nothing too concerning and doesn't seem to affect performance. Overall, I couldn't be happier with the Samsung T7 Shield 4TB Portable SSD. It's a reliable, high-performance storage solution that has significantly improved my productivity and given me peace of mind in the field. Highly recommended for anyone who needs dependable, high-capacity storage in a rugged package.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Samsung Portable SSD T7 Shield 4TB I bought this item for more storage with laptop files and photos. There was an unexpected delay with shipping after purchase, but it wasn't an immediate necessity so I didn't mind it all that much. This is a great item for use of portable or extra storage.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Solid drive, good value really enjoy the drive with one minor issue. The build quality is solid and I enjoy the rugged build. The speeds on my 2019 iMac computer are fast. HOWEVER I have the drive encrypted using Mac APSF encryption. This slows the drive on my computer (as it does on other drives) but on my wife's M1 MacBook Air, this drive suffers more read slow down than my Sandisk SSD extreme V2 drives. Those drives (also encrypted) suffer almost no read/write speed slowdown on her computer but this Samsung drive suffers noticeable read slowdown. Not sure why there is a discrepancy there but it is. Overall however, the drive works great on my computer and seems reliable so far. Do recommend.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from What an improvement! I bought this after going through a long period of my old HD performing poorly and slowly. I have a very large music library and I need lots of storage space. My new HD is smaller, quieter and faster. I so glad I made this investment.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Outstanding Solid State Drive ...!! I've been working with personal computers since the mid 70's. I've lost a lot of data and I've had to reinstall my operating system many times due to hard drive crashes. I replaced every hard drive in my system with this one little masterpiece of electronics. I have 4 partitions about 1TB each - operating system on one, documents and pictures on another, downloads and misc storage on another. Very fast RW rate and if I want - I can take it all with me. I Love it.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from secure, fast and reliable ssd I recently acquired the Samsung T7 Shield 4TB Portable SSD and have been thoroughly impressed with its performance. As a content creator and photographer, the need for speedy data transfers and durability is paramount, and the T7 Shield excels in these areas. Key Highlights: Performance: With transfer speeds up to 1050MB/s thanks to its USB 3.2 Gen2 interface, the SSD significantly shortens file transfer times, enhancing my creative workflow. Durability: Its rugged design includes IP65 water and dust resistance, making it reliable in various environments. The durable aluminum exterior also protects against physical impacts. Capacity: The 4TB storage efficiently handles large files, including high-resolution photos and 4K videos, catering to the extensive storage needs of creative professionals. Compatibility: It seamlessly integrates with multiple devices like PCs, Macs, and gaming consoles, ensuring a flexible and hassle-free experience across different platforms. Portability: Lightweight and compact, it fits easily into a pocket or camera bag, making it ideal for creators on the go. The inclusion of both USB-C to USB-C and USB-C to USB-A cables enhances its versatility. In my experience, it stands out not only for its compact and rugged design but also for its substantial and almost entirely usable 4TB capacity. Unlike my experiences with some HDDs, the Samsung T7 Shield operates smoothly without the need for intrusive proprietary software, ensuring reliable performance without any drive recognition issues or read/write task problems. However, I have encountered a peculiar issue where all USB ports on my computer stop working randomly since acquiring the drive, though it's likely unrelated to the SSD itself. Overall, the Samsung T7 Shield 4TB Portable SSD is a highly recommended choice for photographers, content creators, and gamers looking for a reliable, high-capacity, and portable storage solution. Its blend of performance, durability, and ease of use solidifies its place as an essential tool in my creative arsenal.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from T7 Shield The Samsung T7 Shield, 4TB, SSD, is a great item to have. I specifically purchased the part for my PS5. The item was easy to setup. The T7 Shield comes with the transfer cable, and the T7 Shield has a very nice feel, a non-slip rubber coating. I finally ran out of room on the internal 2TB, Samsung 980 Pro. So hopefully having 6TB worth of storage should get me years of use. I always try to invest in Samsung Electronics, they've never failed me. Keep delivering them goods Samsung.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from SSD T7 Does Not Work, Has No Technical Support i was thinking that this device will be the great purchase that will satisfy my backup files necessities. i was totally wrong.. it works fine for one time complete back up my files and the security protection sounds great.. i bought it on 04/23/23. i had to restore some files from it, and surprise my SSD T7 Shield does not work. i called support technical support and the asked me to download Samsung Magician software that did not help me to resolve the issue. i called and chatted several times with Samsung to get real technical support, repair or warranty to be replace it or get my money back, and from all i got a huge disappointed and frustration. so I trusted Samsung SSD T7 shield to back up my files... i cannot access to files, i cannot get support, Samsung care that DOES NOT CARE. so can someone tell me what can i do to get warranty or money back. because i do not trust Samsung anymore. maybe i will have to complain to Federal Trade commission and Better Business Bureau.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great Features, but Crappy Support I love the drive itself. The speed is really fast to upload and download files. The challenge comes from getting a replacement cable. I cannot find the replacement part number for the cables anywhere. The cable was damaged, I need to replace it. I thought coming to the Samsung website, I could get the part number for the cables that go with the drive. I even tried the chat bot that just sent me to another website that just gives me a list of part numbers, none of which will come up when I enter the drive specs. The chat bot cannot give me a part number, it just sends me back to the same useless website. Once upon a time, companies put the part numbers for replacement components on their websites in locations that were easy to find and you did not have to go through automated purgatory with a chat bot that sends you in circles to find a simple answer to a simple question. All I wanted was a replacement part number for the USB B to C cable. It could go on the specifications page of the website. Presumably you want to sell products. Do not make me waste time digging through your website. Making things difficult is a good way to ensure I look elsewhere the next time I need to buy a drive.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from You will not regret this purchase! I recently purchased the Samsung Portable SSD T7 Shield USB 3.2 4TB in black, and I must say it has completely exceeded my expectations. This sleek and compact SSD delivers exceptional performance and reliability, making it the perfect choice for anyone in need of high-speed storage. Firstly, the transfer speeds are incredibly fast. With USB 3.2 connectivity, I was able to achieve lightning-fast read and write speeds, allowing me to transfer large files in no time. Whether I'm backing up important data or working with hefty multimedia projects, the SSD T7 Shield handles it all effortlessly. Furthermore, the 4TB storage capacity provides ample space for all my files, including videos, photos, music, and documents. It's perfect for content creators, photographers, and professionals who require a large amount of high-quality storage on the go. One notable feature of the T7 Shield is its impressive durability. Built with a solid aluminum exterior and a shock-resistant internal frame, it offers military-grade protection against drops from up to 2 meters. This gives me peace of mind knowing that my valuable data is safe even in the event of an accidental mishap.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Small, lightweight, and fast! I was reccomended to purchase a Samsung SSD as a fast alternative to the HDDs that I currently use. I saw the 4 TB version and purchased it without hesitation (especially since it was on sale!). When I opened the box I was surprised by how small and light it was. As I transferred data, I was shocked as to how fast the data transfer was! I will definitely need to purchase more of these and I highly recommend!

I then packed it in a hicking pack with me all over the world. The only issue is that the USB connection requires solid cables that fit snug and don't jostle, or it disconnects often. It's fast when I need to search in the data chaos that is my life while out on the road.
