Samsung T9 Portable SSD 2TB
A finished drive rather than a drive and a box: nothing to assemble, nothing to get wrong. The price is the interface. USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 tops out near 2,000 MB/s against USB4's 40Gb/s, and Macs have historically been awkward with Gen 2x2. For a machine that mostly needs somewhere to put things, that ceiling rarely matters. Not tested here yet.
Quick decision
- Best for
- Moving large files between computers that support USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 without assembling an enclosure and drive.
- Avoid if
- Your main computer exposes only 10Gbps USB or you expect a Mac to deliver the advertised 2,000 MB/s ceiling.
