Samsung Portable SSD T1 Overview

As i told in before post.This product is not so stylish, seeing more pretty but yet has a very good working capacity and More technology is used which created a very much demand in the present 2015 techno science.Its price is very low !!!!!!!!!!!! but ROCKS

 The T1 measures 2.1 x 2.8 x 0.36 inches — smaller than a standard business card .It's so light that it feels like there’s nothing inside its plastic casing, let alone 1 terabyte (TB) of storage.

Samsung says you can slide it into a wallet. It fits in my normal-sized leather bi-fold, but it just won't close. So not really. It'll fit in a clutch, small purse or pocket fine, though.

In addition to being safe from digital snooping, the T1 is also safe — physically. Unlike hard drives, which have platter disks and moving mechanical parts, the T1 has none. Its SSD nature means it can be thrown around like a hot potato and the stored data will be safe at all times.

Fast transfers:

Waiting for big files to transfer is as exciting as watching paint dry. Depending on your drive and cable interface (USB 2.0, USB 3.0, Thunderbolt, etc.), your transfer speeds will vary.

The T1 boasts read and write speeds of 450 megabytes per second (MB/s) when connected through USB 3.0, which itself supports transfer speeds of 5Gb/s. In practical terms, Samsung says you can transfer a 3GB movie in eight seconds. I didn’t have a 3GB movie file, so I grabbed a bunch of mixed file types totaling 3GB and put the T1 to the speed test.

Sure enough, a 3.1GB folder transferred from my 2012 MacBook Air to the T1 in about 7.74 seconds (average of three tests). Copying the same 3.1GB folder from the T1 to the Air took about 14.23 second (average of three tests).

How does that compare to a typical USB 3.0 portable hard drive? My 1TB Western Digital My Passport Slim, a popular drive which sells for about $70, was left eating the T1’s dust. It took about 35.8 seconds to transfer 3GB from the laptop — five times slower than on the T1. Transfers from the hard drive to the laptop took about 31.71 seconds, or about twice as slow.

A 15.1GB 4K-resolution video transferred from my Air to the T1 in 37 seconds. It took nearly 3 minutes with the regular hard drive.

Samsung’s T1 speed claim isn’t just hype, or a best-case-scenario theoretical number. It's really frickin' fast — perfect for people who work with really big files who need to transfer them often. Roving video editors will really like this thing.

Mainly for professionals

Hard drives are cheaper than they've ever been before. You can easily get a portable 1TB hard drive for well under $100. Solid-state drives, while coming down in price over the last couple of years, still command a premium.

The T1 commands a premium and then some: $179 (250GB), $299 (500GB) and $599 (1TB). But damn it if the T1 isn’t badass for such a tiny little guy.

At those tiers, the T1 is a luxury product for anyone who isn't a photographer, videographer or creative professional who can really make use of its high-speed performance while on the go. For them, time is money. Regular people will be just fine with normal "cheap" portable hard drives. They still work great; they're just not as small, and not as fast.
