I compared 2 SSDs (Solid State Drive) and a HDD (Hard Disk Drive) by running speed tests and going over the features of these drives. I had been searching for the best SSD (Solid State Drive) to store my projects (video, photoshop, etc.). Traditional Hard Drives are slow and can be a bit heavier to transport around. I decided it was time to switch to SSDs due to their speed and performance.
Today we’re going to look at 2 of the best portable SSDs on the market: the Samsung T7 Portable SSD and the SanDisk Extreme Portable SSD v2. It’s so much more convenient to move an SSD after using a heavy and powered hard drive. Using an SSD instead of the HDD I had been using prior helped my workflow. Instead of needing both a power cable and a USB cable for the particular HDD I was using. I only need to bring a single USB cable to connect to this blazing fast drive!

I decided to make a review of the SSDs because I wanted to share what I found from using these drives. I did not receive the products free of charge from SAMSUNG or SanDisk, or compensation to make this review.

Bought WD SN550 NVME recently, installed it in my SSK 10GBPS enclosure. Managed to transfer 200GB of data in 4 minutes. Have a couple of T5s as well..they're pretty good.
Nice!! That sounds like a blazing fast drive. Hard to compare much to that drive 😂. Thanks for being part of the channel fam 🙌
G’day Paul, I jumped across from SKOOL and happy to support a fellow TH-camr & subscribe with a big thumbs up 👍🏻. I own both these 2TB version SSD’s and love them both. This is a great idea for a video 👌🏻 You produced & presented it well. Loved the out-takes at the end 🤣 Cheers from Western Australia 🇦🇺
Thanks so much my friend!! Love SSDs so much faster than traditional HDDs. Appreciate the kind words 😊 Welcome to the channel family 🎉
Great high quality video man can’t believe you don’t have more subscribers! Definitely supporting
Thank you so much!! Appreciate the support. Welcome to the channel fam!! Glad to have you join me on the journey!
Thank you so much for this! I also just bought BOTH, so happy to share that in common with you and love the outtakes 😂👍🏼💕
Love this!! So glad you enjoyed it! And may you enjoy your new drives. I'm very happy with both drives. They haven't let me down yet. Thanks for being part of the channel fam my friend 🙌
Who needs a ssd drive while rock climbing? Lol let me bring my laptop to the top of this mountain🤣🤣🤣
😂😂😂 I mean you never know. I’m sure there are photographers and videographers that rock climb 🧗♂️.You just never know 😁. Welcome to the channel fam friend 🎉
Video creators sometimes record footage straight to ssds. So this situation is possible hahah
@@seanharrison5045 it’s true 😁
Can use an SSD to transfer stuff from GoPro cards through your phone with an adapter/hub.. no laptop needed.
@@sjsmith Hey Stephen! Great question. Unfortunately, I don't know if this is possible or not. If anyone from the channel fam knows more, please share with our friend Stephen 👍
Let us know if you find a solution 😊
I love this video, it was very helpful! And the bloopers at the end with the upbeat music ! Nice touch💫
Thanks so much friend 😊 so glad you appreciated those details 😁 welcome to the channel fam 🎉
No problemo! Thank you so much again!😁💫 I appreciate your kindness!
@@froblox absolutely my friend 😊 joy to have you on the channel 😁
@@pauldittus it’s a joy to be here!😁
Great vid Paul. Im torn between these as I have been looking at other SSD's and these are my top two. If I choose the Sandisk one do you think it is possible to just use any USB A to USB C cable to use instead of the adapter they supply? Or is there some cables that have better transfer speeds that can be used?
Hey friend! Thanks for joining the channel fam 🙌. Absolutely, you can use a different cable. I did a quick search and it looks like you should be able to get the max speeds of these drives with most new USB C cables. Looks like USB C 3.1 or newer should do the trick. However, your speeds could be limited based on the device with USB A port on your using.
www.akitio.com/faq/356-are-all-usb-c-cables-the-same
Have an awesome week 🙌 let us know what you end up going with or if you have any other questions.
If I’m not mistaken you need special cables to deliver the 10 gbps on USB 3.1 gen 2
I’ve got the same dilemma! I’ve been watching a few TH-cam videos as well as reading other posts, but I still can’t decide! A big part of me is leaning towards the SanDisk because of its ruggedness and durability. I always worry about dropping things!
We use USB-C to USB-C on our studio equipment ie. iMacs...our location kit is instead a Windows 11 MSI gaming machine certainly not your typical location Laptop. Here we use USB-C to USB-A and we have never found it lagging or dropping off and the dropping off of any HDD or SSD is as we know...is royally a pain in the a**. The one thing people miss interpret on is the cable....Personally we kept our Seagate cables and use them for location work as they are a lot beefier and transfer data, images, motion files excellently. One other thing we added to our location laptop is a standard Bank of America rubber credit card sleeve ... they sticky on to the outside of the machine and hold securely the SSD so we can use a mini length 4" cable...keeps things tidy and comfortably out of the way. Removal is easy as there is absolutely no residue left behind.
@alvareo92 We we have had to utilize 10G for a few contracts....yes, the specific cable was introduced to attain those speeds. Was it worth it? likely not for us, but each instance is different. I personally don't require 10G transfer speed ... as that is the time i get to actually enjoy the few minutes of downtime to myself.
Great vid Paul...keep up the good work my friend
@@dr.richardamaral-psychology hi friend! So sorry I didn’t reply. For some reason I don’t know if it notifies me if someone replies to a comment. The SanDisk is a great option. Which one did you end up going with?
You seem to have the most insightful comments section of all the reviews I have watched this week.
Thanks so much ❤️ it means so much. I aim to build an engaged channel fam. Thanks for being part of it!
The intro was amazing! Kinda sad to watch the energy and fun drop after the intro, but very informative! Stil watching at 4 min. Thanks for the video!
Hey friend! Thanks for the feedback. Appreciate it. I’ll keep this in mind for future videos.
Welcome to the channel fam 🎉
Hey Paul! Thanks for the video, do which of the SSD will give me a longer battery life on the iPad Pro? With no external power support! thanks!
Hey Lin, to be honest I haven't tested them enough with the iPad Pro to know which would last longer. I imagine they would be similar or not too far from each other. Welcome to the channel fam! Cheers 🙌
Great video very entertaining and informative at the same time. Love it!
Thanks so much Ryan 😊! This means a lot to me 💯 welcome to the channel fam 🎉🎈
Hey! Great video. I’ve had a couple problems with hard drives in the past due to them failing (lost all my files). Im really nervous to buy one but these are definitely my top 2. Im a vlogger so I’m always editing large files. Have these hard drives failed on you yet or are they still working fine?
Thanks, Annette 😊! I'm so sorry to hear about your hard drive failing. Both have worked great for me (I will be returning the Sandisk to company). I would also recommend looking into a backup system to protect your files. There are systems like the 3-2-1 method that could be helpful. This is where you have 3 copies of your data: 2 local, and 1 offsite. I personally haven't done this... yet. At the very least I'm personally looking at Backblaze to at least back up my files offsite. Sadly, hard drive failure can happen when you least expect it.
Hope this helps! Please let me know if you have any questions. Welcome to the channel fam 🎉
@@pauldittus hi im wondering if i may know, how large the file you store at backblaze?
@@HelloThere-lo3qi The beauty of backblaze is that it allows me to back up all drives attached to my computer. I had it backing up my 1 TB SSD, 1 TB HDD, my internal drive, and my 12 TB drive (not all of the drives are full). I recently switched computers so I still need to finish backing up my all of my drives again.
It’s great having the piece of mind that the drives are being backed up. If you want to learn more, you can check out the Backblaze details using my affiliate link: www.backblaze.com/cloud-backup.html#af9y9h
Great Video! Thanks for sharing, love all the samsung drives. PS love the outtakes!! keep it up
Thanks so much Emerson!! Really appreciate it! Glad you enjoyed the outtakes 😂😂 welcome to the channel fam 😊
Great vid Paul, I just got a new MacBook, would these be good for time machine or overkill ? I am new to Mac, so not sure what I should get.
First, welcome to the world of Macs 🙌. I don't use time machine currently, but I would imagine these working great for that purpose. You could probably even get the V1 of the SanDisk Extreme Portable SSD or the Samsung T5. I would probably go with an SSD of some sort. Hope this helps friend!
Great video! Good luck with your channel! Subscribed 😊
Thanks friend 😊 welcome to the channel fam 🙌 so glad you’ve joined the journey 👍
I've had my Samsung T5 for over a year... or even two now. Best decision ever! But 1 to isn't enough anymore, so I'm thinking of upgrading. The price is high, ofc, but so is the comfort that comes with it.
Thanks for sharing your experience with the channel fam 🙌. I’ve heard good things about the T5.
I have both! I work on large (20~200gb) UE4 projects on my two T7s that light is nice you can tell if things are working. 2 years and they’re still great. Not really portable friendly because of their sleekness, I’ve dropped one a few times on my attempts at carrying them with me but everything seems fine. When I’m moving my laptop around the house sometimes I try to keep my two T7s plugged in, they’ll like slip off and smack eachother. These are better for stationary use or if you plan to hide them in a secure backpack or something after use.
I got the Sandisk one for an on the go emergency backup. It’s very unlikely but I always get scared we’d have like a disaster a house fire or a robbery or something and I’d lose years of work. I don’t want to pay for a cloud service so having a durable SSD on me at all times gives me that sense of security. With the way it’s built it’s more suited for the outdoors than the T7.
I never really keep track on how fast these things are but I’m transferring a 241gb folder from my T7 to my Sandisk and eta is about 2 hours 55 mins and sometimes the eta fluctuates. 11% in and it went to 1 hour 50 mins.
Hey friend! Thanks so much for sharing your review for the channel fam! You shared a lot of helpful details for those looking to purchase a drive! Thank you for being a valued member of the channel fam!
Which one not more hot
Nice one mate what's the name of the background track sounds cool
Thanks my friend! If you can tell me the timestamp, I would be happy to look up the track for you 👍
Welcome to the channel!
Last week attached a T7 1TB to my Xbox One, and Xbox One X. World of difference. Next gen consoles are impossible to get. But adding these to last gen consoles makes game launching, running games, so much better. Say goodbye to texture pop! Graphics are marginally improved in that the console does have to compensate for texture pop by down grading the texture. I am guessing. There could be a different but similar reason, but either way, games can look better. Especially when movement is taking place on screen. Much faster than on board internal drive. Wish I could transfer OS to the SSD.
Thanks for sharing your experience, Jeff. Honestly, it’s so hard to consider switching back after experiencing SSDs. Enjoy 🙌
Thanks for this. Just purchased 2 x Samsung T7's in Graphite.
Nice!! My pleasure friend. Enjoy those awesome drives ❤️! Thanks for being part of the channel fam 🙌
Thank you for the video, Really appreciate it
You’re most welcome my friend 😊 thank you for the kind words.
Welcome to the channel fam 🎉
Useful! Thanks 🙏
My pleasure 😊. Thanks for being part of the channel fam 🙌 have an awesome week!
Nice video. I am confused between these two. Have read somewhere that sandisk would perform better in writing large files because it has larger cache than samsung T7. What's your opinion? Could you take a real world test in transferring more than 200GB of mixed media type data with both the drives and let us know which performs better ? Thank you.
Hey friend! I haven’t heard about the cache. I did find the Sandisk perform slightly better and offer better durability. I personally didn’t feel like it was a drastic difference between the two. Both are pretty solid.
@@pauldittus Thank you.
@@DigeshPatelAndroidGeek my pleasure 👍 thanks for being part of the channel fam 🙌
@@pauldittus i heard the sandisk one overheats
@@agamaz5650 hello friend! Recently I’ve been recommending the Samsung over the Sandisk due to people having issues with Sandisk. I personally haven’t experienced the drive failing, but have heard people having issues recently with them. I’m hoping it was just a bad batch, but it’s hard to recommend at the moment. So all that said, I would personally recommend the Samsung T7 right now.
Welcome to the channel fam 🎉
Hey Paul, great video. What song is that playing at the end of the video?

Great video! A year and a half later, any updates to your preference? If the SanDisk came with the Samsung cables, would you go for SanDisk?
Thanks friend! I liked using both. My personal favorite is still the Samsung for design and look, but for durability, my vote is the SanDisk.
Side note: It looks like Samsung came out with a "shield" version of the T7. Not sure how it is, but another consideration.

hey Paul, what about temperatures? Have you noticed that they become hot during work?
Hi friend! I don’t recall them ever heating up to a point where I was concerned. So far both are running great for me.
Superbly done video!

I'm a student who will start using Photoshop, Illustrator, and Premiere. So I'm looking for an external hard drive for my Lenovo IdeaPad3 15IIL05 since I already have other apps installed that I need. Based on your opinion, do you recommend having the Samsung SSD for my laptop?
This is the laptop's info
Intel(R) Core(TM) i3-1005G1 CPU @ 1.20GHz 1.19 GHz
System type 64-bit operating system, x64-based processor.
Hey friend! The Samsung should work great for your setup. If you don't currently use an SSD, you will love the speed improvement.

Hi Paul, I just want something to keep my music files on so I can get rid of my desk top pc. I have too much music to fit on my phone. Would one of these be a wise option?
Hey J.D.! Great question. These are fast and portable options. They will be more expensive than a traditional disk drive, but if you don't need a lot of storage and want portability these are great options. That said, I recently returned one of my SSDs to buy a large hard drive. Here is my paid link to the WD Elements drive I bought: amzn.to/3cuVNUf
If you need A LOT of space and don't want to spend as much per TB this is a great option. Downsides of the WD Elements I don't like that it requires power, is less durable, and is harder to transport.
Hope this helps! And welcome to the channel fam 🎉
Nice review, thanks I'll buy from your link :-)

Bro for streaming 4k movies in ssd to my sony x80j tv
What about heating issue.
Which ssd is long lasting and not overheating ?
Hey friend 😊 great question. Personally I haven’t had any real issues with overheating with either drive. If you look through the comments and reviews of both drives, you’re likely to find someone saying either one has a heating issue. I can only speak from my experience and both have worked great for my needs. So for durability I like the Sandisk and for looks I like the Samsung.
is the sandisk ssd only useful for video and photos? wanted to use it for samples and libraries for music production and the product page seems like its more for video and photo work/editing?
Hey friend! I’m also an audio engineer and it should work great for music production 👍
@@pauldittus Thanks for the quick answer! Great video btw, the sandisk just arrived and it really helped me make the choice between them, even though i think the samsung one looks a bit better/cleaner!
@@bayze6149 thanks so much friend! I’m so happy to help 😊! Enjoy the new drive!
Hi, do samsung t7 have ability to autobackup & autosync when plugged into pc?
Great question. If you have software to enable those features, I believe it should work. For example, I auto-backup my Samsung T7 using Backblaze.
Welcome to the channel!
Can I edit 4K videos with both external ssd?
Great job! Audio & video sounds and looks amazing!
Thank you so much friend! Yes, you should be able to edit 4k footage from these drives as they are fast. You can check the Blackmagic tests for some details (I do need to redo the tests since they were using my old MBP from 2015 which didn’t support the full potential of these drives). Appreciate the feedback ❤️ welcome to the channel fam 👍
@@pauldittus thank you sir!
@@joonajks you are most welcome ❤️
just what i wanted, got both in the amazon black friday and dont know what one to keep. Its so hard, as they both have they disadvantages and advantages. I like the samsung but does the both work on consoles? thats the deal breaker for me as im going to get a new xbox soon i think. I know you cant use it for series s games, only the pass games and basically non series s games. I could keep both but ive already got 2 small HD drives that are small and work on my ps4. wonder if the ps4 speeds up games on the SSD drives? any idea? cheers
Hey friend! Great question. If you can use an external HD with the Xbox I believe either drive would be fine since they’re very similar. I haven’t tested it personally with an Xbox so can’t say for sure. Have a great weekend 🙌
@@pauldittus the Samsung SSD E7 is the best external SSD I've had. It's small, light and has 1tb on it. It's sped up my games stored on it by twice as fast. I'm going to give it a go in getting a nice 2tb SSD internal now. It's breathed new life into my PS4 which is good as the new consoles have all but gone, so no chance of getting one now
@@vinylmonkeyTHFC wow! That’s awesome! Also thank you for detailing your experience. I’m sure others in the channel fam will benefit 👍
Amazing advice!
Thanks Vita Films!! Welcome to the channel fam my friend!
hi there...a bit late to the conversation. I have the sandisk Extreme portable V2 which is really fast but it gets very hot when editing 4k video with my M1 macbook pro...does the Samsung also gets very hot? do you do video editing? I need them for that purpose...thanks!
Hey friend! Welcome to the channel fam 🎉
I’ve used both for video editing in the past. I would say they get warm or a little hot, but I don’t recall them getting to concerning sustained level of heat. Personally, I use the Samsung T7 since that’s the one I own (the other one was for a job).
@@pauldittus ok...My Sandisk gets way too hot in my opinion...it works...I may try the samsung this time...thanks so much
@@TheFandangovideoguy my pleasure 👍 hope the Samsung works for your needs. Let us know how it goes my friend 😊
How it works for video editing ? Can we directly edit video's from these SSD ?
Hey friend! It works great for video editing. I've used both SSDs for video editing and they are fantastic to work with.
Welcome to the channel fam 🎉
Good video. If I need it to run Windows OS, which of the two suits me? Thanks.
To be honest, either should be great! You can format the drive according to your OS needs. Personally, I like the look and the cable of the Samsung better, but I also like the durability and the ruggedness of the Sandisk.
@@pauldittus Thank you so much 😄

Amazing quality videos, great thumb nails!!!
Thanks friend 😊!! Appreciate it. Welcome to the channel fam!!
Just checked out your channel 👍. Always a pleasure meeting a fellow creator.
I have the SanDisk 2TB Extreme and an older G Tech 1TB SSD. From day one the SanDisk would get hot to the touch just plugged, no transferring or reading. Also, I couldn't edit video files and thus only used the SanDisk for backups. It failed recently after about 18 months, lost all data. The G Drive has proved to be very reliable and in my experience faster. I have the Samsung T7 on my shopping list and perhaps another G tech.
Hey Adrian! So sorry to hear that SanDisk failed you. Were you able to get them to replace the drive? Thank you for sharing your experience with us. Welcome to the channel fam 🎉
@@pauldittus I did send a support request to SanDisk support. No response as yet. I took delivery of the Samsung T7 yesterday and will do double back ups to be safe.
@@AdrianW_photo Hopefully SanDisk support will help you. I do like my Samsung T7 😊

Hey man which one would be best for MacBook Air 2017
Hi friend! Both would great for your MacBook Air. Personally I like the look of the Samsung T7. The Sandisk offers a little more durability features. Hope this helps. Welcome to the channel fam 🎉
I have a sandisk extreme ssd however for some reason there is a glitch on macos where sometimes it doesnt see the drive when its plugged in I found a fix where you can execute the command diskutil list and it will see the ssd i dont know if the samsung t7 ssd has the same issue as i only really used it for recording footage on my iphone 15 pro
So sorry to hear about that. When I was using the SanDisk I didn't experience the same glitch.
Did the drive always do this? Do you know the format of your SSD? Can you move all the data off the SSD and try reformatting it? (Reminder: Formatting will remove any data that is stored on the drive so don't do it before moving any needed data)
I’m a bit confused . Iv heard Samsung ssds require you to isnt kernel code into Macs and therefore reduce security on the Mac .
Iv also heard the Samsung software makes things difficult for some people to use their ssd. Do you know anything about this?
I might update soon and idk what to get . Recently I backed up like 200 g on an old wd hard drive that was a few years old. It only took like 20 mins . Seems fast compared to people saying it takes them hours for not much more gigs . I thought ssds were supposed to be faster lol
Idk what to get .
Hello my friend!
I haven't heard about those security concerns for Mac. I've been using my Samsung T7 with my mac, and I haven't noticed any issues yet.
I don't believe a separate Samsung software is necessary for using the SSDs if you don't want to use it.
I will also suggest avoiding the Sandisk SSDs right now. I've heard to many people having issues with them recently. Hopefully this changes soon.
Feel free to report back what you end up going with.
Welcome to the channel!
Yeah I was concerned with the sandisk , though Iv seen people say they transfer bigger files faster and that the Samsung’s go really slow for big transfers? Like a 20-40 g folder or more would be super slow?
I think I heard that if you don’t download the Samsung software , the ssd doesn’t operate at full speed.
But I also heard the software issue is more of a concern on M chip Apple products.
So this is what leaves me indecisive
@@heythere6983 I haven't seen a major speed difference between the two when I had them. Granted my testing wasn't probably the most accurate because I was using an older MBP when testing the two.
I personally have been very happy with my Samsung T7.
Once you decide on one, feel free to come back and share your experience.
Thanks for the response . I’m also looking at
Crucial x8, seems to be good aswell
@@heythere6983 nice! I haven’t used Crucial’s external drives, but have purchased their internal ones which worked well from what I remember 👍
Great video Paul. I'm not too tech savvy. I was wondering could i put my 70 gigs of music on either of these and use it to play music from my computer instead of taking up those 70 gigs of space on my computer? Appreciate it.
Thanks so much, Tim. Yes, you should be able to use an external SSD to store your music if desired. Most music players support playing music from an external drive.
On another note, right now I would suggest looking at the Samsung as people have reported issues with the Sandisk more recently. I personally haven’t had an issue with the Sandisk, but with enough people talking about it I’ve been recommending the Samsung over the Sandisk.
Hope this helps! Welcome to the channel my friend!
@@pauldittus Thanks for your response Paul and i was leaning toward Samsung. Now I'm convinced.
@@timmiller4166 Happy to help, Tim! Enjoy your new SSD!
I have done some research on SSB storage drives. For price/ results, I like the Crucible! The Crucible is about 5-8 time over hard drives but 2 to 5 times slower than other SSB

2. Is it ok to use one them to save my Photo gallery and work smoothly editing images from there?
Thanks!

1. Yes, you should be able to use as a boot drive. You’ll just need to format the drive accordingly.
2. Absolutely. I love using external drives for working on my videos or photos.
Please let me know if you have anymore questions. Welcome to the channel fam 😊
Hey man, great video! I have seen a few videos regarding this comparisons between these two SSD s and this one was the best! +1 Subscriber for you!
However I do have a few questions.
1.Can any of these 2 SSD support Thunderbolt 3?
2. Are these two SSD s compatible with the M1 iPad pro with thunderbolt cable?
I normally would've watched a separate video but those are very long, and I just wanted to watch a direct comparison video. I hope you respond to my questions ✌️
Thanks so much for your kind words ❤️! Welcome to the channel fam 🎉
1. Yes, from what I understand about Thunderbolt 3 is that it can do everything a USB-C port can, and it’s faster. 20 Gbps vs 40 Gbps. Although the speed of the drive and other factors will determine the transfer speeds.
2. I’ve used it with my iPad Pro (mine is the generation before the M1 version I believe). It worked fine. I will say that when I tested it the results were slower than the speeds on my laptop. Although it might have been the tester I was using.
Hope this helps 😊
@@pauldittus Thanks Paul!
@@xyross23 my pleasure 😊
I normally put my videos/movies to my external drive, and watch it from there. Would doing that to an external ssd destroy the lifespan significantly of my SSD? Thinking of getting the T7 too.
Hey there friend! Great question. So I actually use my SSD to edit videos and for some of my creative project files. I prefer using an external drive as it's less stress on my internal hard drive. Your use case doesn't sound particularly draining for an SSD. All drives have a certain lifespan. So whichever drive you use there's always the possibility of it going bad eventually. That said I love using SSDs and they work great.
@@pauldittus Awesome content man, keep it up. Subbed
@@anonram21 awesome 👍 thanks friend! Welcome to the channel fam 🙌
And if we talk about encrypting or putting a key or password on both ssds to prevent another person from accessing our files and information, which of the two would you recommend?
Good question. Personally I haven't used encryption on either so I don't know for sure. That said, Samsung does offer the Samsung T7 Touch with fingerprint security which is pretty cool. I haven't personally used that SSD version of the Samsung.
Welcome to the channel fam 🎉
I just bought the 2 TB version of the SanDisk SSD (albeit, it has not been delivered yet) . . . Question - why am I seeing so many complaints about this SSD overheating and more important, is this systemic to all SSDs or just the SanDisk Extreme Portable? Thank you in advance . . .
Hey Steven! Great question. When I was using the Sandisk for work, I didn’t have any major issues with it. Perhaps others here have had other experiences, but from my personal experience it worked great for me. Also the Samsung SSD that I use now hasn’t had major issues either so I have yet to see if it’s systematic or an occasional issue with SSDs.
Please let me know if there’s anything else I can help with.
Welcome to the channel fam my friend 🎉
Would you be able to save games to this such as dcs
I personally haven’t used it for gaming so if anyone else from the channel fam has please add your voice for Melvin. If you can save the games to a external drive I wouldn’t see why not it would work.
I'm using Samsung T7 Touch 2TB for some months. It's great SSD, but sometimes make me problems. 1) When you watching video and occasionally rewind it back and forward, the SSD may stuck and even disconnect from the PC. 2) The same thing occurs, if you're working simultaneously with many opened files. Eg. converting video and make backup. 3) It happened several times: I work on one PC, and later open my work on another PC and see like all files in the folder still unchanged! Windows "Scan disk" can solve that problem, and all changed and new files appears as it should be. Seems like SSD for unknown reason doesn't update the file structure. *) I know about "Eject disk" command and always do it before disconnecting my SSD. 4) This disk is very sensitive to USB-cable and may not work properly with some. /// My older SAMSUNG T5 500GB had another problem. It sometimes made me errors with saving big files. Sometimes yes, sometimes no. T7 has no that problem.
Thanks for sharing friend! Do you have all the drives formatted the same (btw don’t format a drive unless you’ve got all your data secure in another location)? Is the encryption turned on with the T7 Touch? You might want to reach out to Samsung if those problems persist. That sounds very frustrating. Let us know if you find a solution.
@@pauldittus I’m electronics engineer, and we use a lot of these SSD for one of our projects. I also have one T7 and one T5 as my own. I can compare and may to say - described problem isn't my specific. 1) T7 have no problem to store files one-by-one, but if some apps working simultaneously with many opened files, intensive cross-transferring data may ruine USB connection. 2) My SSD formatted as NTFS. 3) As I’ve said, the USB cable is important, and T7’s own cable isn't best. I recommend cables of TrippLite. 4) Yes, I have T7 Touch, but I don't think it really encrypts user data. SSD just hiding the main partition, making it “Unallocated”. Didn't trying, but I think, any partition tool can make it with all user data visible. For real encryption I recommend VeraCrypt app. 5) Also recommend to install Samsung Magican for update SSD firmware, because native utility doesn't do the work. 6) As a conclusion, T7 is still one of the best of external SSD, but I can't call it “trusted device”. So, after saving really important data will be a good practice disconnect it, reconnect again and check your files.
@@Vinnetu thanks for sharing all the details. Do you know if you’re experiencing the issues with the drives you encrypt?
I’m on Mac so I format my SSDs as APFS. So far I haven’t had an issue.
@@pauldittus No. On Windows-PC no any problem with it.
I have a serious doubt
I am going to run a linux os on a external drive
which to prefer Samsung or SanDisk
people say SanDisk get hot (very hot) even at idel position please help me out which one to get!
Hey friend! Great question. I’ve seen reviews saying the Samsung gets hot. I will say that I haven’t noticed any drastic heating issues with either drive as of yet. Sandisk also sells the Extreme PRO Portable SSD which is said to have a “forged aluminum chassis”. But it does come at a greater cost.
The Samsung T7 on the other hand has “DYNAMIC THERMAL GUARD (DTG) TECHNOLOGY protects the T7(T7 Touch) from overheating by automatically slowing down data transfer if necessary.”
I personally like the look of the T7 more, but feel like the Sandisk has more of a rugged advantage if you need that. Hope that helps friend. Welcome to the channel fam 🙌
@@pauldittus heyy I got the SanDisk one but the user experience was terrific I can't download file directly on SSD it does download but the dialogue box gets hang and says not responding

@@manishjain606 so sorry to hear about the experience. Did you try reformatting the SSD? (If you try this just be sure to backup your files). Are you referring to the Sandisk software when you say user experience or the SSD itself?
I just bought Samsung Portable SSD T5 for my iPad Pro. It gets disconnected, 😟 nothing wrong with cables. It works fine with Laptop. What could it be or any fix? Please Help!
Hey friend! So sorry to hear. Do you know how the drive is formatted? Do you have a lot of content on the drive already? If not, maybe back up your content and try 1. check the disk for errors via a computer
2. reformatting the drive (make sure you backup whatever is on your drive first)
Keep us posted friend. Hope it all works out. I know it can be frustrating when drives don’t work properly. I believe Samsung might have software for their drives if I’m not mistaken. Maybe you can also try reaching out to Samsung as well.
I'm using a mobile phone, can I edit the clip on Samsung T7? by placing the editing program on My mobile phone or on Samsung T7

Hello! Is that the sandisk extreme portable ssd v2 youre using at the speedtest?
Hey Tratata! Welcome to the channel fam 🙌 yes, it's the SanDisk Extreme Portable SSD v2. Have an amazing weekend 🙌
@@pauldittus are you able to add the detail to the title or description?
@@falcon81701 hey there friend 🙌 thanks for stopping by the channel fam. Are you referring to the title and description of the video? Yes, I can edit those. What did you have in mind 🙂?
@@pauldittus Yes. I was suggesting if you can add "V2"to the description of the Sandisk SSD. There was a V1 model previously which was USB 3.1 gen1/ 3.2 gen1 5gb/s. I only figured out that you were testing the newer v2 10gb/s model from the previous poster's comment.
@@falcon81701 good suggestion 👍. My affiliate links in the description, go to the drives I used in the video. But you are 100% correct about the confusion of v1 vs v2 since they have the same name.
I need to know which one will work with iphone, and windows , I assume I will need an adapter for iphone but will either one work better( easier) just want to back up photos to one device

Welcome to the channel fam 🎉
can I use it for storage not just transferring files
Absolutely my friend. When you go to purchase you can select the hard drive size that works best for you. Welcome to the channel fam 🎉
NOTE: Testing these SSDs plugged in to USB -A is not a great Idea. They are capable of way more than a USB-A port. If you really want to evaluate them, you should use USB-C 3.2 Gen 2(x2) or thunderbolt.
Hey Friend! Good point. My 2015 MacBook Pro was what I had at the time. I’m planning to upgrade in new year so maybe I can give it a real test then. Hope all is well! Cheers 🙌
@@pauldittus what about the thunderbolt port? I have a pro with a thunderbolt. Late 13’
@@kevinbacon2955 Haven't tried it. Not sure if I have a USB C to Thunderbolt at the moment. Which drive are you leaning towards?
Welcome to the channel fam 🎉
Hi Paul, Great video!! I've been in two minds whether to buy the samsung or SanDisk one. I need it to run some programming (phyton, R, jupyter). Which one do you suggest? Thanks for your help.
Hey Tatiana!! Welcome to the channel fam 🙌 great question. I believe any either one should work. If you travel and need something more rugged, I would suggest the Sandisk. If you like the stylish look of the Samsung, I’d recommend the T7. Hope that helps 👍 let us know what you decide to go with
I’ve owned the t7 for over a year now no problems. The light is nice, use it with my iPad sometimes it takes awhile for the t7 to show up in the files app, the light lets you now it’s been recognized so you’re not in limbo.
That’s awesome Mike!! Thanks for sharing your experience. I’ve really enjoyed using my T7. Great SSD. Have a great week!
Hello may i know which one is better if you want to transfer photo and videos
Hey friend! Welcome to the channel fam 🎉 Personally I own and use the Samsung T7 regularly. It works great for my video and photo needs. I've also used the Sandisk at work it the past (also doing photo and video). They both work great. I would say if you want a more rugged option the Sandisk is great. If you prefer the look of the Samsung (which I do), I would check out the Samsung T7. Both are great options. Have a great week my friend 👍
@@pauldittus thank you my brother, new sub for you i hope you're doing well in life 👍
@@MrTaco-sw9wq absolutely! My pleasure my friend 😊 thank you so much for the kind words too 😁
Would one of the ssd be good for storing my phone videos and photos?
Hey Amy! These are super fast drives. They would work well to store your photos and videos. If you need to edit the videos from the drive, these is a great drive for doing so.
Either one should do the trick 👍
Welcome to the channel fam Amy 🥳
Is there any disk encryption comes with the sandisk?
Great question. I’m guessing you might need to use software to encrypt. Did you find one that worked for your needs?
I really like that light on the T7. It lets you know that somebody's home. And God said, "Let there be Light".
I absolutely love the vibe of this video, no shouting, no nonsense, just vibes bruh. Nice Subbed
Thank you so much!! Your comment means a lot to me. Appreciate it. Welcome to the channel fam 🎉 so glad to have you 😊
What if you were putting the sandisk in your pant back pocket and unknowingly sitting on it ?
How do you think it would hold up ?
I dont have one but i really want to know
Good question my friend. I can't make any promises since I haven't had it happen, but I do believe it's decently durable and would imagine it should be fine most of the time. Probably would depend on what you sit on and how fast (e.g. if you fall on a hard surface at an angle).
Welcome to the channel my friend 🎉
Do you know if the Sandisk works on iPad Pro?
I had no issues using it with my iPad Pro. Although I will say I was surprised that the transfer speeds were slower on the iPad than on the computer. My 15" MBP 2015 doesn't even have USB C and it was faster transferring files. Both drives were slower on the iPad Pro.
@@pauldittus cz the mbp and other recent laptop have usb protocol 3.1 above which accomodated the speed of ssd, which ipad probably doesnt has it
Thanks for the reply. I was using a MBP 2015 15" which doesn't have a USB C port. So it was definitely curious interesting that the iPad Pro with USB C performed not as well.
How long will one of these last if used daily?
I’ve been using mine regularly, and it’s been working great so far. Granted I haven’t had it that long yet. This could be an interesting read: www.backblaze.com/blog/how-reliable-are-ssds/
Is Sandisk extreme good for a long term backing up, for example photos, videos, mdp, pdf etc? Most important thing for me is to have all the files safe everytime I get to use the device. 🥺
Great question my friend. First I will say I've been hesitant to recommend Sandisk SSDs recently due to people having issues with them. I personally haven't had any issues with the Sandisk that I used in the past, but something to keep in mind.
For backup I would suggest considering a backup system instead of just one drive. Yes, this drive can do a fantastic job of holding a copy of data and be able to have quick read and write speeds. Most professionals recommend a 3-2-1 backup system. This is where you have 3 backups: 2 local and 1 offsite. I personally haven't gotten to this level, but I have decided to use Backblaze as a part of my backup system.
I know the pain of lost files. Having a good backup system is great for preventing lost files.
Please let me know if you have any other questions.

Does samsung t7 get hot during tanasfering large files when compared to sandisk
I personally haven’t noticed any major heat issues with either drive. I know if you look at reviews there are people that have experienced heat issues I believe with both drives.
Hey Paul, the two ssd that you tested were the new generation (upto 1050MB/s) or the old generation (upto 550MB/s)?
Yes, these are the 1050mbs models. The Samsung T7 and the Sandisk Extreme Portable SSD gen 2. Welcome to the channel fam 🙌
@@pauldittus Speed Test makes no sense, you're getting about the same as older Samsung T5 and Older version of SanDisk get with 550mb/s drives, what's the point of testing Samsung T7 or v2 SanDisk Extreme Pro on a machine that don't support the full potential of these drives? in fact Samsung T5 with full potential most likely would over perform Samsung T7 that is getting bottleneck by your laptop USB, so it's hard to have a conclusion with half baked results.
@@Unknown-mx7vd I agree. It was the computer I had available at the time. I’m hoping to upgrade later this year. But you are correct that it would have been better using a computer that supports the top speeds. Thank you friend 👍
