Arrived formatted exFat, GPT from Crucial. A few preinstalled offers included links to, Acronis backup software, Mylio Photo Organizer and the Crucial support webpage. The first thing I did was use software to repartition the drive then format to NTFS. I will mention after running synthetic benchmarks formatted NTFS then reformatted back to exFat produced little difference in benchmarks speed-wise. I used Crystal DiskMark9 to check speed. I have a Thunderbolt PCIE card installed and anticipated a jump in Read/Write speeds when using the Thunderbolt option. To my surprise, there was little difference in speed from the USB-C than when tested while connected to the Thunderbolt adapter. When connected with USB-C Read/Write bench speeds of 1041/1005 MB/s were reached. Testing speed connected to the PCIE Thunderbolt adapted showed R/W 1043/1023 MB/s. The synthetic speed tests were well below the advertised 2100 MB/s. I wasnt disappointed with the speeds, but I did expect my tests to be closer to the advertised speeds. And Im not sure why my unit didnt test closer to the 2100 MB/s. The advertised speeds could have been reached using a different software, not sure why my results showed lower R/W speeds. I happened to have a portable 1GB hard drive from around the 2004 era. The speeds hardly compare to the Crucial X10, but its amusing to see the difference in the size of the units (see picture). This Crucial X10 is nothing short of extraordinarily fast for a portable USB drive. I will definitely be using this drive next time I copy my music and music video files. Large enough to copy my main PCs entire storage drive. The cutting-edge speeds will be a real time-saver.

Plug-n-play, no separate power brick required. Very fast with USB-C port. Amazingly compact for a drive of 4 TB size. Well made and good looking case design. Packaging is very sturdy.


Extreme, extreme speed, and future products will just keep getting better and cheaper. Fast format, loads all types and size files with ease and speed. Efficient, saves tons of time compared to using even a very fast thumb drive, SSDs as portable storage devices are the future, in the present. Storage capacity is what a dream of mine a few years ago would be, yet maintaining a very attainable price point. Was able to transfer all my games from one computer to another within minutes, glad the new motherboards have the necessary ports to use the drive's speed to the fullest. Smaller than a portable hand sanitizer, so light that you'll think you've lost it many times a day just to realize it's been in your front pocket all day long.

I got this drive for my iphone and my pc backup. Very, very fast and easy to do.

This product does work as advertised but I needed to buy a Thunderbolt 4 cable and plug it into the only USB-C Gen 4 2x2 port on my PC. On the front USB-C port is a Gen 3 port, I "only" get 1000MB/s read instead.

This is my second Samsung T7. The drive is highly portable, highly reliable and I love the speed of the unit. Having 4TB available silently, anywhere is convenient. It will be interesting a year from now to see if I feel the same way. I have purchased a shock proof case for it since it doesn't come with one.

what can I say? its a good portable affordable 4tb ssd. it just works

USB C enough said. This is the fastest External Drive I own.


I was able to immediately unpack and insert into xbox series x. The 2 tb or 1.8tb to be exact was immediately recognized.

If I could give 10 stars I would. This is so fast for backing my phone. 18GB in no time flat. I am getting another for my wife's phone. No lag time. It just boots and goes zoom

Small, fast, reliable product
