Review on πŸ”΄ Renewed Samsung Portable SSD T7 500GB USB 3.2 External Solid State Drive Red by Janis Cerins ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

A valuable purchase, some advantages!

First. It is necessary to be more attentive to the wires (which was a revelation for me). It turns out that not only not all yogurts are equally useful, but not all wires are equally fast. My old favorite USB-C to USB-C cable, as it turned out, with this drive shows a speed of 480 Mbps, and the wire that comes with it is 10 Gbps. From what it is, I, a loser, cannot understand . The same copper, the same connectors. But it's a fact. So if your disk suddenly does not fly, do not rush to swear, but change the cable. Second. Initially, I took this disk to attach it to the phone. Movies to watch. I watched video reviews - everyone says that these Samsungs are paired with iPhones. And the instructions say (drawn) that you can attach to the phone. However, I could not directly pair it with the iphone 13 pro max. Through a proprietary adapter, he writes that the device consumes too much energy, through Chinese - he does not write anything, he simply does not show the disk and that's it. This disk is probably designed for android phones, or even exclusively for Samsung. But! If you connect the phone and the disk via an externally powered USB hub, then everything works fine even with an iPhone. The photo showed a working configuration option for connecting a disk to an iPhone.

Pros
  • Thing! Improves quality of life. I don't even know how I lived without it :) The speed is just amazing. I did not measure it with a stopwatch, but transferring 250-300 gigabytes from laptop to laptop is almost faster than smoking a cigarette. You can safely mount 4k video on it in three tracks with filters and masks - it doesn’t lag, it copes.
Cons
  • There are no shortcomings, but there are comments, see below.
