Fast, Tough, and Pocket-Sized — Essential for Creators
This little SSD is a beast. I use it for backing up audio sessions and video projects on the go, and the speed is unreal — I’m consistently getting over 900MB/s transfers with large files. The rugged design gives me peace of mind when I’m traveling or throwing it in a backpack.It’s shock-resistant, dustproof, and water-resistant — and still somehow sleek and super lightweight. The rubberized coating also keeps it from sliding off a desk. If you’re a content creator, musician, or gamer looking for reliable, high-speed storage, the T7 Shield is worth every penny.⭐️ Shure by Gator SH-BROADCAST1 Boom Arm ReviewHeadline: “Studio-Quality Feel — Smooth, Sturdy, and Clean”Review:This boom arm completely upgraded my setup. The build quality is top-tier — solid metal construction with a super smooth articulating action that doesn’t drift or sag, even with heavier mics like the SM7B. It looks pro, feels pro, and functions flawlessly.The hidden cable management is a huge plus — keeps everything clean and out of the way, which is great if you’re on camera or just like a tidy desk. Mounting was simple, and it stays put once positioned. If you’re podcasting, recording vocals, or streaming regularly, this is the boom arm to get.

Recommended by my tech repair guy. Solid State Drives (SSD) are so much faster.
Was told by my computer repair guy (who I totally trust, and was not selling me anything) this was the one they buy. This brand, and Sold State – no moving parts, so it’s fast, but costs more and should last longer, I’m told. So far so good. The device itself uses a USB-C connection and you get two cables, one with USB-C on the other end and one with USB-A on the other end. One is way faster, like the ones phone phones have been using for a while (android anyway, know nothing of Apple phones), the smaller ones that can go in up or down (there really is no up or down). But if you don’t have a USB-C port on your computer, or not a spare one, I’m told the USB-A will work fine. Used USB-C and it worked with my Windows setup and BluOs music system, hassle free. Only had it a few weeks but so much better than old style drives, with moving parts that read the sectors with that thing that looks like record player arm inside. Used a free program called Total Commander to move stuff and back stuff up onto it. Easier than Robocopy. BUT you have to be careful whend downloading it, you just want that program, not the extra garbage.

Cloner Box (1080p) Can Run This Drive
I got tired of my little Cloner capture box cooking USB thumb drives. The continuous writing for an hour or two was just no bueno. They’d get hot even when I put a small fan pointed directly on them and then they’d eventually fail. I bought basically every different kind of USB thumb drive, ones rated for “extreme” use etc. and none of them held up particularly well, they all struggled to manage the heat generated by any sort of extensive capture session.I was a bit wary as to whether this SSD would pull too much power, but it seems to run just fine with the included USB-A to USB-C cable.So I gave it a torture test and asked it to run a continuous, 5 hour long, 1080p capture and it did it fine, without ever getting hot. Will it last forever? Probably not, but I am at least cautiously optimistic that I am not going to have to replace it in a couple months. Note that I can’t tell you if it gets hot when you run it at faster read/write speeds, but it handles the bit-rate of a 1080p encode just fine.I do like how small it is, and how sturdy it feels in the hand. It is obviously bigger than a thumb drive, but if you think about a credit card but a 1/4 inch thick, you are in the right ballpark. It has just a single activity light that shows if it is reading or writing to the drive, and I had no issue reformatting it to NTFS.

Small, fast and rugged
I’ve been through my fair share of old school hard drives, travel HDD, SD cards, internal SSDs etc… over the years. When this arrived, I was surprised by how small it is. Maybe about half the size of my medium size phone. Exterior rubber is nice, feels good in hand and doesn’t slip as much on a desk. Most importantly, that thing is fast and it really doesn’t feel like you’re dealing with an external peripheral. It’s a true pleasure to use. Only gripe is that it disconnects easily if you’re not careful but that’s something I can overlook given how good everything else is.

using to back up files from laptop to this external drive – easy to use, works well
SAMSUNG T7 Shield 2TB Portable SSDWe’re using this to back up files on our laptop.Our previous laptop froze and I can’t access the documents, downloads and photos. Very frustrating. We got this so if something happens to the new laptop we’ll have access to the files. Now I’m backing up files every one or two weeks.It’s easy to use. It plugs into the USB port and I just copy files using File Explorer.

Great SSD so far
Plug and play. Small and compact. Great speeds. 4 stars because it says it is dust resistant. This couldn’t be further from the truth. The type of material it is encased with attracts dust and lint. Just be aware of that if you do get it. Anything else, I’m extremely satisfied with it. I’ll modify my review if anything changes.

Works well with a 2013 Mac Mini
This worked really well to back up my 13 year old Mac Mini that’s on its last leg. If I remember correctly, you need at least Mac OS 10.13 for this to be compatible. I barely made it LOL. It doesn’t come with specific instructions on how to configure the device for initial set up; my husband did that for me in a couple steps. Once I started the sync, it went seamlessly and from here on out, it’s simply ‘”plug & play”.

My Favorite Hard Drive – I Keep Buying More
I have four of the same and these have been my favorite. They are light, strong and super easy to connect to your computer or laptop. I use the T7 shild and I have never had any issues. I strongly belive I will continue to buy this brand instead of others than I have used over the years.

Llevó unos meses probándolo, haciendo respaldo de todo lo que esta a mi paso, la computadora del trabajo, la del hogar, la de mi amiga, respaldos de celulares Android y apenas he ocupado una cuarta parte del espacio total de 4TB, si bien debo decir que como en toda unidad de almacenamiento una pequeña parte de este espacio es ocupado por archivos del disco u otros de sistema, más o menos te quedán libres 3726gb.La velocidad de escritura es de cerca de 1050 mb/s pero es necesario estar conectado a un USB 3.0, sino la velocidad será reducida dramáticamente como a la mitad. En general los tiempos de transmisión de datos son asombrosos con el T7.Una de las cosas que más me gustan es que puedes ver los archivos en cualquier parte con solo conectar el cable al dispositivo, trae 2, uno entrada CtoC y otro CtoUSB.Es importante desmontar la unidad tanto en el celular como en la computadora para no corromper los datos o dañar el disco duro. Lo que no te explican es que en el celular hay que bajar la aplicación SAMSUNG MAGICIAN para configurar el T7 con una contraseña alfanumérica segura. Si se activo la contraseña y lo queremos abrir en Windows hay que instalar un archivo la primera vez para poder ingresar el password y nos de acceso a todos los archivos cifrados. Eso si, si pierdes la contraseña tendrás que llevarlo a un centro autorizado para que te ayuden a desbloquearlo.Lo que no me gusta es que lo traigo en la bolsa y se llena de pelusas con el material como tipo goma, pero nada que un trapo húmedo no pueda resolver. Conviene comprar un case aunque diga que resiste golpes y tenga una IP6.En resumen es una super opción que si bien es costosa vale la pena por el respaldo masivo de datos en la palma de tu mano. (es sumamente pequeño para tener 4TB) Además que SAMSUNG es una marca reconocida y el producto es fabricado en Corea. Se puede trabajar con el si te gusta producir contenido para Internet como videos o fotos.El envío fue en apróx. 4días considerando que venía desde lejos. Vale la pena hacer inversión en este gadget. Ideal para Win o MacOs.

I have an earlier Samsung 2Tb drive, which is great, but this 4Tb T7 Shield is even better. Nice and fast to access, nice and small to travel with. While I don’t think the 4Tb+ sized SSD drives are yet at their pricing sweet-spot, if you look around (like on here) you can get a very good price with a little patience (or timing luck). I plan to get another of these soon, they are excellent. A bigger colour range would be nice, but doesn’t detract at all from the drive’s performance.
