Review: Extremely Fast and Tons of Storage in a Slim Design - The SAMSUNG T7 Portable SSD 4TB is incredibly easy to set up and use. It has a massive amount of storage space and delivers very fast transfer speeds. The drive is thin, lightweight, and doesn’t consume much power, which makes it perfect for everyday use or on-the-go storage. Overall, a reliable and high-performance external SSD that’s well worth it. No Noise!
Review: Great security - I’m not the most tech savvy and wanted backup on an external drive for graphics heavy work and photos. I remember the challenge of making my last external drive compatible and especially deleting old files, so I was a little anxious trying to find a solution. In case it helps someone else, I work primarily on an iPad Pro in a design program (Affinity) and needed a backup storage solution besides the Cloud. I didn’t really want a second cloud solution to be backup and can’t use an external drive with the iPad. I also have a MacBook, which has massive storage, but can’t be backed up to ICloud, while the ipad can backup to iCloud. My workaround for immediate file saving is to create shared files which are stored on iCloud (I call them Desktop) on the ipad. Desktop is stored on the hard drive of the MacBook and gets updated via ICloud device sharing even though I can’t initiate an iCloud backup from the MacBook. Inside Desktop I have labeled files as usual and a parent file for graphic design from the Ipad, broken down into 100+ named project files and sub files. Whenever I save from the ipad, I save to Desktop (in iCloud) and then choose the appropriate file within Desktop to save. This way I have the folders on the hard drive of the MacBook as interim backup, and am working around not having iCloud backup storage available when I’m on the MacBook. The T7 comes in as secure and portable physical data storage. The T7 drive is the hard copy backup of the files shared between the iPad and MacBook, I think necessary in case of some dreadful software issue, fire, or other unanticipated loss of access. I plan to have more than one as soon as I can afford it, to rotate. Again hopefully this may help someone like me who spent some solid hours figuring out a better way to secure my data and workaround the Mac user experience. Since I am wanted to do manual backups I needed the process to be easy so I wouldn’t avoid doing them, for obvious reasons. Though we don’t need to get into it here I don’t want to use Time Machine on my Mac to back up the disk. So I had to figure out something else. The T7 is great, easy to use, no time at all to install, self explanatory pretty much. I dragged folders full of work from the desktop (yes I like to see them, don’t judge) to backup. The initial backup was very quick and painless, most files were a few seconds. The graphics heavy files perhaps took about 10 minutes? These are massive, not a problem, and may have been quicker than this, I expected it to take more time. (My last iCloud backup was over 13 hours of anxiety - I kid you not and have since deleted almost all the working files from the drawing app after saving them in Desktop so they happen more quickly now, but still, I thought this was a daylong project). I experimented with dragging an old file to the trash from the T7 disk pane, and it worked as expected. I had to read online about how to go about copying my photos library (Mac) to disk, but it wasn’t hard. I have over 40,000 images, and it took about 20 minutes as I recall, if longer probably max 25. I tested the backup by remaining in the open pane and opening the photo files, which worked. Amazingly all this data barely touches the capacity of the drive, maybe 10% or less of a TB? Minuscule, anyway. 2 TB is overkill for me, especially since old files can easily be deleted. (This may be different for a user in Time Machine because it keeps multiple versions of your backups, and maybe more settings etc. which can take up a lot of space?- not tech savvy, as I said, but I had trouble with my older system and Time Machine and being unable to delete backups which rendered my backup disk unusable, and I didn’t want to deal with this again even though it’s less convenient to do it manually). I think the T7 drive will fail before I need more space, which is a great problem to have. I’m planning to get another disk (with less storage) and use it as a failsafe backup- ideally storing it in a safe or out of the house just in case, and keeping a rotation to protect against loss. On the critical end, I’d love it and think it would be much safer for data if the user pane of the T7 was visibly different from the one on my desktop. It’s the same color, font, everything, as my desktop window (maybe that’s just how these things work?), which makes me triple check when I’m deleting or updating. Don’t do this on a Friday night after an adult beverage…. I’d also love it if there was a simple tutorial available when you opened the disk up, just for ease of first use, a how to (experimented with a throwaway file deleting because it wasn’t obvious that dragging files to the trash would work) for most, and as a reminder for others. I hesitate getting one for my parents because of this. But I’m happy and will buy another, looking forward to the peace of mind it gives me.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: I am running mac os catalina. if i reformat the drive, will it erase the cache that’s built into the drive?**
A: Reformatting this external SSD will not do anything to its cache. In any case, the cache is used only during read/write operations, you can’t directly address it as a user and don’t have to think about it at all. You can reformat in APFS for best Mac performance or use any other scheme you need, including multiple partitions each formatted differently.

**Q: Will this ssd work as a external hard drive for ps5**
A: Yes, you should be able to use this as an external drive for the PS5 and get full speed on it as long as you plug it into one of the USB 3.2 ports. However, you will still not be able to play PS5 games off of it. You can play PS4 games off of it with improved load times.

Per Daniel Bastian's answer regarding the Xbox Series X. You can use the T7 on Series X, but you will not get the full speed. Series X uses USB 3.1 gen 1 ports, which are slower than this SSD. For Series X, you would be better off buying the T5 SSD.

**Q: Does the gray t7 match the space gray of a MacBook?**
A: no, the ssd is darker than the space grey mac

**Q: Can i boot windows 10 directly using boot camp if i connect it to my mbp? im running out of storage on my mac so i don’t want to partitin&useboot camp**
A: Yes. You might need to Google how to use an external drive, but the read/write speeds on this are exceptional (1GB/s), and the USB-C to USB-C cable it comes with is top-notch (as is the USB-C to USB-A cable). Obviously, you're going to want to be vary careful not to move the cables when in-use.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fast, Portable SSD Lifesaver for M1 MacBook Air and M4 Mac Mini Storage Woes
*by J***L on October 25, 2025*

I snagged the Samsung T7 Portable SSD (1TB, Gray) about five months ago from Amazon during a sale (~$90) to tackle storage limits on my 2020 MacBook Air M1 (16GB/256GB) and 2024 Mac mini M4 (16GB/256GB). As a web dev hobbyist training local AI models (e.g., Phi-3 Mini on my blog archives), I needed quick, reliable external space without slowing down my macOS Sequoia workflow. After reformatting to APFS in Disk Utility, it's been a seamless daily driver—plug-and-play via USB-C, no Samsung software required. Here's my experience from months of heavy use. Pros: Speed is the star—real-world reads/writes hit 850–950 MB/s direct into my Air's USB-C or Mini's Thunderbolt 4, blasting through 50GB ML datasets in under a minute (way faster than my old HDD). The 1TB capacity swallows backups, Python environments, and 4K video projects effortlessly, freeing my internals for active work. At pocket-sized (2.3 x 1.5 inches, 2 oz), it's perfect for shuttling between my portable Air and stationary Mini—no bulk for coffee-shop coding. The gray metal body with rubber grip shrugs off desk bumps, and it stays cool during long transfers. On my UGREEN Revodok 105 hub (for the Air's HDMI/charging setup), it runs stable via USB-A 3.0 (500 MB/s), but direct USB-C shines. Cross-platform? ExFAT default works great for Windows file shares with family. For the price, it's unbeatable value—durable, encrypted (hardware AES 256-bit), and future-proof for Apple Silicon. Cons: Out-of-box exFAT is fine, but reformatting to APFS (GUID scheme) is a must for Mac optimization—takes 5 minutes in Disk Utility, but newbies might skip it and see slower speeds. Theoretical 1,050 MB/s drops a bit on M1 USB-C (due to single-lane limits), but still blazing vs. competitors. The short USB-C cable (6 inches) means desk cable management, and no IP rating for water (grab the T7 Shield if outdoorsy). Tip: For M1/M4 Macs, erase/reformat to APFS right away (Disk Utility > Erase > APFS, GUID). Connect direct to USB-C for max speed; use with a hub like UGREEN's for multi-peripheral setups. Great for Time Machine—set it up in System Settings for automated backups. If sharing with Windows, stick to exFAT. This T7 is a no-brainer for Apple users needing portable power on a budget. It transformed my cramped setups into smooth-sailing storage havens. If you're juggling AI data or creative files, buy it—you won't regret!
