Review on Samsung 860 EVO 500GB SSD MZ-N6E500BW by Adam Paka (Adam Trab ᠌

It was necessary to find a suitable SSD to use as a flash drive / portable drive when connected to a smartphone. At first glance, an external SSD has been made for a long time for connection, including with an eye for connection to wearable devices. And you might think that you can take any disc, any case, collect everything and enjoy life. But, as usual, it's so simple. SSDs differ in power consumption and not every combination of SDD + case will work without additional. power when connected to a smartphone. Actually, this is what happened when I originally took the 1Tb version from another manufacturer. The assembled external SSD and case worked great when connected to a laptop, and did not want to be defined in any way when connected to a smartphone. He just squeaked plaintively. It became clear that the power from the Type-C port of the phone is not enough. I took someone else's SAMSUNG EVO 860 on 500Gb to "drive" it and inserted it into the same case. Oddly enough, but the phone has already pulled this combination and it was possible to work safely as with an external drive. Then I ordered the same disk for myself. Life hack: you can first connect a hub with an add-on to your smartphone. power, and then the disk itself. And not even one is possible. Then there will be no food restrictions. And even a 1Tb drive will start without problems. This is handy if you use your smartphone instead of a laptop. Away from your laptop.
