Wow, it's that small

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Say goodbye to storage limitations! The Samsung T5 EVO packs a whopping 2TB (and beyond!) into a pocket-sized powerhouse. I can’t believe 2TB can really be this small. Its sleek, minimalist design feels premium in your hand and shrugs off bumps with its sturdy rubberized casing. This lightweight wonder easily slips into a bag or even a small safe, so your precious photos and videos are always on the go.
Connecting via a convenient USB-C port, the T5 EVO is plug-and-play even for tech newbies. Autoplay guides you through file transfers, and speeds are quick enough for everyday tasks. Although it originally writes slower than advertised on our home computer (could be our USB port) it’s still snappy for everyday tasks like photos and videos, especially after switching to a faster USB port on my work laptop as the software suggests. Moving a 10GB folder took just under a minute – not bad for a pocket-sized drive. You don’t need the additional programs that Samsung offers, like Magician, but they are a nice compliment, especially the ability to add security.
The T5 EVO delivers big on storage, style, and security, making it a perfect portable companion for everyday users

Amazing speed that out performs my pcs ssd

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] So I use this drive as my personal library for work that I keep a multitude of files on that I use frequently. The speed of this drive is astonishing! I have recently recieved a new computer that had too small of a hard drive so I keep my former desktop files on the SSD. When searching for some files that I lost track on my PC with its own SSD, it took 10 minutes to complete a search if the full hard drive, the same search on the t5 Evo was instantaneous. The size of the drive is superior to my former external HD and the security exe on the Evo makes my files files more secure than they have ever been. This is another homerun from Samsung! I absolutely love this product.

Small yet Powerful

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] As a content creator who does everything with my phone. I'm always running out of storage. So to have something so small and portable and packing a huge amount of storage in it is a win!
Love how it feels in the hand and I'm not worried about it getting scratched up or falling to the ground if it was accidentally bumped into. So glad that it's a USB-C connection as most devices are now adopting this type of connection into everything. Talking about speeds too, I usually try to shoot my content at the highest quality and for it to transfer over to the T5 Evo it takes seconds!
Very much content with the products Samsung is pushing out and here for their future lineups.

Fast speeds, take everywhere

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Plug and play out of the box, but the app you can download is easy to use and perfect for protecting with a password. I was able to move holiday pictures in an instant, and take to the printers to print them out. Looks nice, easy to carry and take everywhere. The USB-C connects seamlessly to my computer and laptop.

Fast SSD

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I can say the write and read speeds on this are super fast for the amount of data it holds. The size of the unit is nice to be able to take with you when needed. I like the coating on the outside to make it durable and slip-resistant. Plug and play ssd that just works.

from Avondale
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve been super impressed with my Portable SSD T5 EVO. It’s small but compatible! Lately I’ve been transferring footage over from my GoPro to the #t5evo because it can handle large file transfers. this is great for content creators or gamers that need some extra storage capacity. I received the 2TB but you can buy 4TB and 8TB. I love that transferring my photos takes less than 30seconds and did I mention it’s drop resistant up to 6 feet! It’s created with shock resistant rubber design. And weighs just over 100grams.
