Rated 5 out of 5 byMacUser9999 from Good for a while then stopped working El CapitanI bought this drive about 6 weeks ago. Everything was great running it as my system backup under Mac 10.11.16, El Capitan. Then one day, it just stopped mounting and I would get a weird message from the operating system: Disk Not Ejected Properly. I had not ejected it. Apple has been working with me on this for 3 weeks. 2nd level tech. Engineers involved. The odd thing is: it works fine on my iMac running High Sierra. And no it's not my usb ports. They work fine with all my other drives. And no, I don't want to "upgrade" my operating system. I have msw and fcp 7 still running on this MacBook Pro.

Works with everything I haveI have partioned out the drive so some partions work with my mac for TimeMachine and the other works as a normal drive for mac and PC for transferring files. AND THE SPEED!!!I transferred 44.45GB of movies onto my computer in 1 minute and 20 seconds! And it wrote them onto the drive in 1 minute and 38 seconds.

Rated 5 out of 5 byRawboned58 from Hard Drive ReplacementPurchased this Samsung ssd to replace high density drive. I was very impressed with the ease of transferring system software and ease of installation. Once installed and configured, I saw a very significant improvement of load and response time. I am very please with is product, so much so, that I purchased two.Thank You for such innovative design.

Rated 5 out of 5 byivel1977 from Speed Nirvana.Using this portable SSD in conjunction with an onboard SSD in my laptop is like speed nirvana. I can do file backups and disc image backups in such little time that it encourages frequent use, which is wise. To facilitate my backups I use the free AOMEI backup tool downloaded online.I believe my very fast backups are the result of two (2 SSD's working together. If you have a typical mechanical hard drive in your computer then you probably can still expect good performance but perhaps not as fast. Also, this Samsung T5 is very small and lightweight.

Rated 5 out of 5 bySoon1 from this is amazing to fit what I needThis drive comes with a hardware-based secure log-in system, and when you plug it in you'll see a choice of emulator/"activator" interfaces for login to a PC or Mac or device. I ordinarily use it with a Macbook or desktop Mac, but I've guest-visited PC's also, and what happens is: you plug it in and will see the initial choice of platform log-in apps. Choose your OS, click, and enter your password - whatever password you set up initially from your own computer/device, as once you do that your password is hard-wired into the drive, and you can access it from anywhere - if you have the password.Setting up hardware-based encryption/security is optional, by the way. But simple, and it works smoothly across my computers. The same routine brings up the system-specific log-in screen, enter the password, you're in. Password required every time it's re-installed — great basic mobile security.For Mac, there's a known strangeness, despite full compatibility. When first plugging it in or upon ejecting it, you may see an upper-right-hand corner pop-up saying disk was improperly ejected (last time. Maybe on Windows "safely eject" avoids that, but on Mac, you'll likely see it. Not to worry, as long as you're not transferring data while unplugging. (In Mac I "eject" and it looks normal but still will get a pop-up nag about safely ejecting.)What else can I say? I know there are a few reputable makers of 250-500GB SSD portable drives worthy of consideration. (As a scientist, believe me, I read all the reviews and looked at "data," but as a typical computer user I chose based on things like the form factor, price, and experience).So this is my 3rd Samsung T (2 "3"s and one T-5 now). I've had no problem with any of them (thus my collection has expanded). They are fast, reliable, and practical between the various interfaces, portable security protection, and choice of cable/interface. I'm a fan.Five people found this helpful
