No problems with the actual connection, speed or use with any of the different products that I have plugged it into. There seems to be .any aftermarket accessories that go with it as well. It is now my primary drive.

This is the best portable storage that I have used in a long time. Very durable I have carried it everywhere. The design is perfect able to grip it without with the silicone body. I have no problems connecting to any of my phones or laptop to be able to add more files to clear space on other devices. This 1TB for me holds a lot of the pictures and documents that I need but dont need right away giving me room to add more later and come back when needed. This is a ten out of ten for getting the job that I need it to do. I highly recommend and if 1TB is not enough for you, they also have it in 2TB and 4TB. Which makes it even better to fit ones needs.

Easy to use/setup. Password enabled 256 bit encryption. Works on computer as well as phone. Fast and durable. Samsungs speed information on the device is accurate. Well worth the price.

My hands-on experience with the Samsung T7 Shield 4TB Portable SSD was overwhelmingly positive. Its combination of high capacity, fast performance, and rugged durability made it a reliable companion for managing large media files and backups. The slight slowdown with small file writes was a minor inconvenience compared to its overall reliability and versatility. For anyone needing a portable, high-capacity SSD for demanding tasks, this drive is a fantastic choice.

I have a number of the T5 drives, so I bought one of these T7 shields to be more portable and safer outdoors. Though I haven't really experienced any issues with the t5's outdoors I never really push them to the weather extremes. The t7 Shield feels like nothing is going to damage it it just gives you that satisfaction in your hand when you feel that rubber sleeve around it they both adds grip because of the grooves as well as padding. When you place down the t5s or the other SDS in this line you usually feel that metal scrape against harder surfaces that are not polished. But the T7 sheild doesn't have this issue. I would replace all my T5s with t7 Shields if I could go back. I also love how small it is even a slightly bulkier than the T5 I can slide it into my pocket and forget about it the soft grip of the t7 shield padding actually keeps it in your pocket instead of falling out like the smooth T5 metal. Performance wise it's great I've not had any issues with any of these Samsung portable ssds, the t7 Shield is extremely fast and works on everything Plug and Play including my Android devices and all of my computers and laptops. If you experience any speed issues just make sure to check your actual device USB version or the cable you use... These devices work just as they are rated. I highly recommend them for transferring things between devices or content creation storage. These devices, (because they're so small) can be clipped onto the backs of phones with the proper adapters that you can find elsewhere.

Absolutely amazing storage device for my photos! Everything worked out the box, no setup necessary, and samsung magician is great for seeing the health of the device. Only gripe is the USB-C connector is loose with most cables, and you need specific cables to have it locked in well.

Stable, fast, and balanced i/o. Rugged enough for most people who have larger storage needs on the go. Nice aesthetic design and handles reasonable weather conditions. Shelf life and active use life seem to be in support of longevity without data loss. Compatibility with most matching and OS platforms, including mobile devices.
