The editors didn't like

  • The price is the obvious problem for most users
  • And we really hoped this series would see a major cost reduction. Real-world file transfer performance is lower than we expected from a product with superior synthetic performance
  • The T3 is a tad larger and slightly slower than its predecessor
  • The T1
  • While costing more. Its three-year warranty is short for a storage device at this price
  • Short cord included in the box
  • Extremely high price point
  • Expensive (£300 for 1TB)
  • Not as fast as internal SSDs
  • Cable remains unsightly
  • Only USB 3.1 Gen. 1
  • More expensive than a normal 2.5in drive
  • Not waterproof or ruggedised
  • No Type C Cable Included

  • Abstract:  Solid-state storage may be sexy, but if you're looking for huge capacity and tiny prices, then the classic hard disk remains unbeaten. Available capacities of portable drives with laptop-style disks inside now extends up to a whopping 4000GB, more commonl...

  • Abstract:  With ballooning game install sizes, storage space is at a premium this console generation. The 500GB or 1TB hard drive that comes as standard in the various PlayStation 4 models may seem like plenty at first, but it fills up quickly. Even upgrading that h...

  • If you're after a large capacity portable drive for backing up your photos, videos, music and other precious data, the Samsung T3 is a great choice. However, a traditional hard drive is still much, much cheaper if speed isn't your main priority....

  • Cheaper Than T1, At Launch, Larger Capacity range than T1, Fast!, Stylish looks, and design, Type C Connection, [
  • No Type C Cable Included
  • TL:DR]]The T3 is more of a sideside step than an upgrade. If you have a T1, then no you're not really missing anything here. Those looking to plunge into the market for a fast external drive, then yes this is the one to go for. Comparing it again agains...

  • So, what has Samsung changed for the T3? Seeing as there's no USB 3.1 support, there's no big increase in speed. The T3 is a little faster than the T1, but not much. The Type-C port on the T3 is definitely an improvement seeing as it's easier to use tha...

  • The Samsung Portable SSD T3 offers good looks and high performance in a compact size. Samsung didn't have a problem adding an awesome product tax when we wanted to see a better value for consumers. In time, the price will come down and that will make the...

  • SSDs have long beaten HDDs on performance and durability but, until now, have not been able to compete on capacity. If you wanted external storage for vast quantities of CAD / BIM data, you had no other option than to go with a traditional drive with movi...
