Samsung T7 Shield USB-C SSD

MPG previously tested the Samsung T7 2TB SSD and the Samsung T5 2TB SSD. In production use for some time now, they have all been 'bulletproof'.

Whereas the 2TB Samsung T7 SSD tested back in 2021 was a performance disappointment, Samsung apparently has gone first class on performance with the 4TB model.

A terrific price and value for 4TB of storage!
