Less credit card

Samsung positions the T5 as the perfect external drive. Smaller than a regular credit card, it weighs only 51 grams and is 10.5 mm thick and is impact resistant. At the same time, the speed is 5 times faster than a conventional external HDD.

Speed up to 530MB/s

The drive can be connected to a computer via either USB-C or USB A. When connected via the USB-C port, it provides a read speed of more than 530 MB / s and a write of 483 MB / s, which is generally in line with the manufacturer's data. These are pretty good numbers, but in all honesty, almost all external SSDs now work in this range, so it’s rather difficult to praise or scold them for their speed.

Sturdy aluminium body

The body of the T5 is made of aluminium with two plastic inserts on the edges. The workmanship is very high, the device looks monolithic. The metal housing provides protection against accidental bumps and falls from two metres. There is hardware AES 256-bit encryption to protect the data on the disk from prying eyes. Plus, the T5 comes with a simple utility to set a password when opening the drive.

Spare storage for smartphone

Of the additional functions, we note the ability to connect the drive to Android smartphones that support the OTG function. Thanks to this, the built-in 250 GB can be used to back up photos or, for example, to watch movies and listen to music on the road without taking up device memory.
