Samsung Portable Laptop Hard Drive 1Tb

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I just got the new Samsung T9 Portable 1TB SSD drive. The drive is unexpectedly small and quite attractive with a rubber-like covering. I’m very pleased that the drive comes with both USB-A and USB-C cords for attaching to most any type of device. The drive is connected via USB-C to my Mac Studio computer. The Mac OS instantly recognized the drive and allowed me to format it for my Mac (Mac OS Extended Journaled). I tested the speed with a disk speed test utility, which reported 829.8 MB/s (write) and 890.8 MB/s (read). The speed is approximately 11X faster than my other USB external drives. I am struggling with the included Samsung PSSD utility. The app always tells me that the drive is not connected although my Mac sees it and allows me to use it. I’ve tried all of the Samsung troubleshooting suggestions for Mac OS, but it still remains unusable. That really makes no difference for me to use it. Nevertheless, I like everything about the Samsung T9 Portable 1TB SSD drive. It’s a great addition to my system.

I use my 1TB MyPassport USB 3.0 Portable Hard Drive to store movies, photos, and audio books. I love the space, the transfer speed, the portability and size.

I use this to back up my home Desktop 1TB main hard drive. It is small and super portable. In fact it is smaller than the 120 GB portable USB hard drive that I am replacing it with.

Needed protection for my portable system backup and this holds my 1tb hard drive just great. Price is well worth the protection!

Headline is updated laptop. Came with 1TB hard drive but 4GB RAM. Operating multiple tabs (3+) on Chrome was sluggish, and multiple programs operating was nigh impossible. Bought this after checking compatibility on another site (I can't recall if it were Lenovo's or Crucial's, sorry). Shipping time became extended during transit, but given the current pandemic, no complaints here (thank you to EVERYONE for working). Highly recommend this upgrade.

I used this to clone my original 1TB mechanical hard drive to a new 1TB SSD. The cloning went flawlessly and the laptop performs much faster with the SSD.

Replaced the original mechanical 1TB hard drive in our HP Pavilion laptop using the Samsung Migration software. Made an image copy of the old drive, removed the old drive and rebooted into all the content that was there before! Superfast boot, applications open in an instant. The old computer had a slot for the optane cache memory and this fit in the M2 slot with no problems. Like a new laptop for $100 bucks!

I keep the WD My Passport Essential 2TB Portable HD connected to my laptop. I store all of my music, movies, pictures and Windows weekly backups on the portable hard drive. This allows me to keep a lot of free space on my laptop HDD. Because of its portability, it is a simple process to take it with me should I wish to have material downloaded from another computer or if I wish to share any files that I have stored on it. I believe this portable hard drive is a truly outstanding product and well woth the cost of purchase.

I use my portable laptop with this 2TB My Passport Portable Hard Drive USB 3.0. It is light and has fast transfer speed when transfer from Samsung Hard drive SSD 830 512GB to this 2TB My Passport Portable Hard Drive. They work great together so my Loptop has room for other application.

works perfect, I had a 1TB laptop drive and now it's a backup drive.
