Our take
The Samsung T5 EVO is a solid option for those needing a significant amount of portable storage, offering a generous 4TB capacity. Its USB-C interface with USB 3.2 Gen 1 ensures broad compatibility with modern laptops and PCs. While the read speed of 460MB/s is respectable for an external SSD, it's not the absolute fastest on the market, especially compared to some newer generations. However, for most users transferring large files or backing up data, it will perform very well. The 2.5-inch form factor makes it reasonably compact for its capacity.
