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

All samsung portable SSDs t5 and t7 dont work with big sur. Watch out if you have a MAC

It is not compatible with iPad OS nor Catalina OS.

It was a surprise to see how small the product actually was. Great for portability. Build quality is also good. Its great that it comes packaged with both USB-C to C and USB-C to A cables.

Purchased this for my blackmagic pocket 4k camera. The drive stopped connecting to my computer/camera within a month of use. Took it apart and turns out the USB-c to m-sata adapter failed. Purchased a new third party enclosure and took the m-sata drive out and used the new usb-c enclosure.

Maybe the best out there for fast storage on the go. Costs a lot though.

Very small package with a large capacity for total system backup for my laptop computer. This external solid state drive is much faster than the previous rotating disc drives I have been using and the expected reliability is a nice bonus.

Much handier and more robust than a conventional portable drive.

This works great with Windows and good with linux. I didnt check whether the warranty is expired when I received the SSD, however. The storage is also not 1T as expected. Its only 931GB, as seen in my photo. Every Gigabyte counts with the work I do, so I am disappointed. The exterior of the drive is surprisingly slippery and it tends to slide around within the small compartment of my bag due to how light it is. The SSD doesnt make any noises, but it sometimes make my 2021 laptop go overdrive when the drives files are opened too long. All in all, it gets the job done for the money. Remember to reformat the device to exPhat if youre using a non-iOS pc to make it compatible. Forgot to mention, but I bought a used version of this drive instead of a new one and it still holds up despite minor external scruffs.
