[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was in the market for storage for my photo library and this Samsung T9 really did the trick!! I have 3 children and a puppy, so you can imagine we take tons and tons of photos and videos! This Drive is SO fast! I was able to transfer a 5GB file from my MAC to this in about 20 seconds.

The design of the device is also quite nice. It's small and wrapped in a rubber skin that feels quite rugged. I can see this as a device that I can easily and confidently carry with me when I travel as well.

The software was a bit wonky at first(could be. that I have a MAC). It took me a few reboots to get the drive to be recognized by the software. Although this doesn't affect using the device, it was just something that was odd compared to my normal Samsung experience.

Overall, great device, a solid build and SUPER FAST!! I look forward to larger storage versions available in the future to continue to move my photo library.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Brand new and in perfect time. I just received the new Samsung T9 SSD 1TB. I was in the market for additional storage for my Tesla cam footage. This comes with the USB-C to USB-A cable. The rugged texture of the exterior means that this drive can take a few bumps which is perfect for car storage. Installation and setup was super easy to complete. The slim profile is perfectly storable and compact.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Samsung Portable SSD T9 is a nice-looking external solid-state drive (SSD) created for gamers and content creators. According to Samsung, it includes a load, edit, and transfer with sustained read and write speed of up to 2,000 MB/s. The Samsung T9 includes a new Dynamic Thermal Guard which provides an advanced solution and controls of heat to keep the T9 at ideal temperatures, even under heavy use during gaming or heavy file transfer. It also features new up-to-date Magician Software, that ensures your T9 SSD always has its latest firmware, extra encryption, and continual monitoring of the drive’s health to ensure peak performance.

The T9 SSD provides a great weight for the drive. It comes in around 4.3 ounces, on the high side, for a small portable SSD, but a welcome one. I enjoy the weight of T9 and provides an outstanding balance in your hand. Based on the design, features, speed, performance, and weight, I would recommend the Samsung T9 SSD to everyone. I believe it has been the best SSD that I have tested in a while.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This thing moves data crazy fast, like 2,000 songs in a second. It works smoothly with lots of different gadgets.

Even if you drop it from way up high, it's built tough enough to handle it. Plus, it keeps your files super safe from people.

You can use it with almost any device you've got, like your laptop, phone, and more. It also works with Windows, Mac, and Android systems.


The Samsung Portable SSD T9 is perfect if you want something that works really fast, is tough, and keeps your stuff safe. It might work a bit differently depending on what you use it with, but it's definitely worth checking out.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was able to transfer large amounts of videos and photos and it handled it perfectly. Very fast speeds and super responsive. I’m very happy with the results of this product and I would recommend it for anyone interested in purchasing an SSD.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've always been a fan of Samsung portable hard drives. I own the T5 and T7, and I recently got my hands on the T9. It's seriously fast! To test it out, I copied an 8 GB file, and the T5 and T7 took about 26 seconds, but the T9 did it in just 24 seconds. It might not sound like a big deal, but those 2 seconds show that Samsung keeps improving their drives, which is cool because the older ones were already great.

Using the T9 is a breeze – just plug it in, and you're good to go. It also looks awesome with that rubbery texture that not only feels great in your hand but also gives you a good grip. I can't stop holding it; it's just that nice.

And, it's not just about looks and speed; it's got your data's back. The password protection is a solid security feature, and the drive feels both light and sturdy. You can tell it's built to take a little beating.

Honestly, I'm pretty excited about what Samsung has in store with the T11.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] When I first received this SSD, I was immediately impressed with how nice it felt. I appreciated the textured silicone outer case. The texture and grooves provide a nice grip while also providing some protection to the device. The device is compact and portable, easily held in the hand and can fit into your pocket/bags and feels light. Though lightweight, the construction and metal of the SSD feels sturdy and well designed (ports are not flimsy, nothing rattling around, etc).
Now, onto the performance of the T9 SSD. The data transfer rate is fast, and does great for what I use it for (e.g., transferring big media files like movies in and out of it). I like the extra security features like the option to password protect your files. I also appreciated how both USB-C to USB and USB-C to USB-C cords are conveniently provided, and I appreciated that they weren't too long/bulky.
Overall, this is a thoughtfully designed device that I'd recommend for backing up your files or for transporting your files.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I recently received the Samsung T9 Portable SSD 1TB and out of the box it feels FANCY! Love the texture of the drive. The rubber like surface does attract a lot of lint however. The speed to transfer files is great and just what I would expect from USB-C. The small pocket size is perfect for me to toss in a camera bag or laptop bag without adding extra weight. I also am happy with the TWO included cords, just incase I'm working with a device that does or doesn't have a USB-C connection.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was previously using a Samsung T7 Shield drive for all of my Visual Effects work I do in After Effects. The T7 is great but I was running out of storage space and needed another drive. Luckily the Samsung T9 SSD 1tb just released and what an amazing upgrade. I ran the Black Magic drive speed test on both my T7 and T9 and the T9 was significantly faster. Moving large files to drive was super quick and seamless.

The T9 has a very nice feel to it. It has a rubbery texture so there is some grip to it which is what you want on a portable drive. It came with both a USB A to C and USB C to C cable. This is convenient since I have a new MacBook Pro which has no USB A input, so I had the options for cables.

I would highly recommend this drive for anyone looking for some external storage. Samsung drives are known to be very reliable and I feel pretty safe with having this drive hold my hours of hard work and not worry about losing it.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] one of the best SSD out there! It is fast and reliable.
