The T7 series has seen many iterations, and the brand recently introduced the T7 Shield.
The Samsung T7 Shield is a compact and rugged portable SSD that is built for extreme conditions. It carries an IP65 rating for dust and water resistance. It is enclosed in an elastomer rubber casing, which ensures a drop resistance of up to three metres. The drive measures 59 x 88 x 13 mm, which makes it portable enough to fit in your pocket and weighs 98g. The device is available in Black, Blue, and Beige colours and in 1TB, 2TB and 4TB capacities. We received the 4TB variant. The T7 Shield has a USB-C (USB 3.2) interface, and you get Type-C to Type-C and Type-C to Type-A cables in the box.
The T7 Shield offers claimed sequential speeds of 1050MB per second (read) and 1000MB per second (write). The rubber exterior uses a Dynamic Thermal Guard to control heat and hence provide consistent performance. In our limited tests, the drive achieved a peak performance of 968MB per second and 814MB per second on an Asus Zephyrus G14 via USB 3.2 Gen 2 port.
