It's pretty, but, slow...

Expertise:Expert
I've rarely used this drive after purchasing it since it never seemed fast. Recently I tried to use it on my xbox and it said it's too slow to even use on that! So I ran a speed test and can't get above 42mb/s read/write speeds. Emailing customer support... hopefully this is fixable.

Sanketh:

Thank you for purchasing the 250GB T5 Portable SSD and for your review.

I am sorry to hear that performance speeds did not meet your expectations when checked in a black magic test. As several factors could affect speed, I would encourage you to call Samsung Customer Support via any of the options below.

1) 1-800-SAMSUNG (ask for Memory) 9AM - 12AM EST (Mon-Fri) / 9AM - 9PM EST (Sat)
2) samsungmemorysupport@sea.samsung.com
3) LiveChat 12PM-6PM EST (Mon-Fri) at: https://www.livehelpnow.net/lhn/lcv.aspx?d=34834&ms=&zzwindow=0&lhnid=29783

The Samsung Memory and Storage Community is also a great resource for getting help from Samsung moderators and customers: https://us.community.samsung.com/t5/Memory-Storage/bd-p/memoryandstorage

We hope to hear from you.
