Review on Samsung 500GB SATA Internal MZ N6E500BW by Boyan Dimitrov ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Good quality product, the price is commensurate with the quality.

In order to use a smartphone as a portable storage device, a sufficient SSD was required. An external solid-state drive (SSD) has, at first look, been designed for connection for some time, with a particular focus on connection to wearable devices. In addition, you might imagine that you can use any disc, any case, amass anything, and live happily ever after. However, it is always so easy in the end. Different solid-state drives (SSDs) have different power requirements, therefore not every SSD+case setup will function without an external power source when attached to a smartphone. This is exactly what happened when I used the 1Tb version from a different vendor. The built external SSD and enclosure performed flawlessly when linked to a laptop, but refused to take any form when linked to a mobile device. He merely squeaked piteously. It was discovered that the power provided by the phone's Type-C port was insufficient. To "drive" it, I swapped out the original SAMSUNG EVO 860 for another one with 500GB of storage and put it in the same case. Interestingly, the phone had already figured out this key combination, thus it was as secure to use as an external hard drive. Next, I had my own copy of the disk shipped to me. A convenient life hack involves initially linking a hub equipped with an accessory to a mobile device. energy, followed by the physical disk. And even one is out of the question. Then, there won't be any limits on what you can eat. Additionally, even a 1Tb drive will boot up without issue. If you prefer to use your phone in place of a laptop, this will come in useful. Put down the computer.

Pros
  • For use in an external box connected to a smartphone, its speed, small size, and low current consumption make it ideal.
Cons
  • Not what I need to hear
