About Samsung

Samsung's storage range includes portable solid state drives and USB flash drives. The T7 and T9 are compact external SSD families designed for fast file transfers over USB. The T7 Shield adds IP65 water and dust resistance, drop resistance up to 3 metres, and AES 256-bit hardware encryption. Samsung's BAR Plus uses a USB Type-A connector and is backward compatible with USB 2.0. Published specifications vary by model, capacity and interface, so check the individual product page before buying.

Choose a portable SSD when you need more capacity and faster storage for projects, backups or regular file transfers. The T7, T7 Shield and T9 models use USB connections, but your computer, camera or other host device must support the required connector and interface for the expected performance. Choose a BAR Plus when a small USB Type-A flash drive suits your device and workflow. Check capacity, connector type and included cables, and confirm any required adapter separately.
