Looks like the lowest price ever (as far as I could find).
Previous lowest i could find was around $500.
The T3 is compatible across multiple operating systems, so you can conveniently connect it to PCs, Android devices and more. With the “Samsung Portable SSD” Android application, USB 3.1 Type-C connection port and the USB Type-C to Type A cable, users can conveniently manage and access content.
Enjoy.
Nice semi-deceptive product info Samsung. The new model is full type c. I got this and use for my Xbox X and am happy anyway.
full type c
What do you mean?
Type c to type c like the new model.
Double the bandwidth as below.
Oh OK I get you.
Xbox one x only supports USB 3.0?
Ssd is better regardless
Seems a bit expensive for an extra 90MB/s max speed, or 20% higher max speed.
It has 10Gbps USB Gen 2 support as opposed to 5Gbps, but it's not making the most of the double bandwidth. 5Gbps is already capable of up to 625MB/s, so the extra 5Gbps is redundant.
With the recent SSD price plummets people should weigh this against buying a USB 3 UASP enclosure and a 2.5" SSD. Or even M.2 SSD including NVMe as of recently.
I have no experience with NVMe enclosures but SATA 3 are about 15 dollarydoos.
I’ve struggled to find an enclosure for an NVMe SSD that actually works.
You won't find a NVMe enclosure because the PCIe interface won't work over USB without some kind of controller in between. I've yet to find any product that has implemented this.
What a fascinating username the seller chose for himself/herself.
It's worth mentioning that you're only going to get these transfer speeds when transferring between it and another drive that's also capable of the same speeds.
If you're copying between this and a mechanical HDD, you're just bottlenecking it and wasting your money. Since I don't store much data on SSD that needs backing up (media files), for me this is not all that useful.
From looks i thought it was just a tiny 2TB USB key.
