According to our External SSD expert
Transfer many files and take them anywhere with the Samsung Portable SSD T5 EVO 8TB. Thisdrive might be smaller than your hand, but don't underestimate it. The T5 EVO is one of the first external SSDs with 8TB of storage. It's also easy to take with you thanks to its low weight and small size. Attach it to your bag or belt, for example. The metal and rubber enclosure provide the SSD with both sturdiness and extra grip. It perfectly lies in your hand that way. Still dropped it accidentally? No worries. It has fall protection up to 2m and can take a hit. You can connect the T5 EVO to your Android, iOS, macOS, or Windows devices via the USB-C port. It's also suitable for PlayStation, Xbox, smart TVs, and cameras.

Nice compact SSD drive with a lot of space, 8TB. First format it in the correct format if you work on Mac, otherwise it will no longer recognize the drive after you have put everything on it. It's not fast, but it's fine as a backup. Reliability remains to be seen, but I have several T7 SSDs here and they have never caused any problems. Highly recommended so far...

A wonderful replacement for the external drive. The reliability and affordability of SSDs has really skyrocketed. Of course, there are always risks, but that's why you have to deal with your data 3-2-1.

For several years I have been using T3 - T5 - T7 Samsung SSD drives (up to 4TB). I needed something more for backup. For this I also did not need the speed like the other drives. I have now 2 in service for 2 weeks and does perfectly what it should do. Connected to NAS to make regular backups.
