Who it’s for / pitfalls

Good for

  • People who carry large files or video footage and need fast copies
  • Anyone sharing one drive across phones, game consoles, cameras and PCs

Not for

  • People whose computer or cable lacks USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 and can't reach the rated speed
  • Users who only store documents and don't need the speed

Known pitfalls

  • Top speed needs a host and cable that both support USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 with UASP mode enabled
  • Samsung's speeds vary with the host configuration
  • Some operating systems may require reformatting before use
