  Get an extra 20GB for the same price with the Samsung T3 500GB USB SSD?

    Cue negs from Samsung fanbois, but I'd rather SanDisk over Samsung any day.

      Making a statement like that without giving any reasons is putting yourself in the position of a SanDisk fanboi.

        Prior Samsung ownership has made me wary of ever buying the brand again.

        TV: A TV guide incorporated into the tv that takes like 30-40 seconds to refresh… every single time you press the tv guide. Not a settings issue, a stupid design issue.

        Monitor: Purchased a Samsung monitor off OzBargain due to its discount, even though the TV pisses me off to this very day. Exactly 3 months after warranty expiry the DVI port (or whatever its called that allows connection to the PC), died. Repair cost was half its initial value.

        Phone: Went from years of happy iPhone use, to Samsung… because I wanted to see how the other half lived. What a massive waste of money. A plastic backed piece of junk. I'd dropped the iPhone a few times over the years, still going strong. One knock on the Samsung at half the height of the iPhone drop (the Samsung slipped off a table), and the screen was wrecked. Not shattered, not even chipped. But the cheap Chinese internal componentry made sure that durability was as low as possible.

        Went back to the old iPhone and that lasted another 12 months until the contract was up on the Samsung.

        Samsung is CRAP!!
        Cheap nasty components for planned obsolescence. It's not quality product. It's built to a price and to a spec sheet. Real life performance and durability isn't factored in. At all.

        This isn't defamation. This is real life 100% true personal experience with a SHAIT brand.

        There is no way on earth I'd rely on Samsung to store my data safely.

        How's that for a reason?

        @UFO: So what warranted the 'fanboi' reference?
        From the angry tone of your post, you're clearly basing your opinion of the entire company's product lineup based on your sample size of three, even though there are clearly millions of people who have none of the problems you had.

        I've seen way more than three dead SanDisk micro SD cards myself, but I don't go around saying SanDisk is crap and anyone who says otherwise is a SanDisk "fanboi".

        Sometimes companies produce duds - even Apple - and as long as the majority of their product line is good, I would normally take a more balanced view.
