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

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...
