    Question Inconsistent Speeds on Samsung T7 Shield: Is My SSD Failing?

    Hello there! I purchased a Samsung T7 Shield 2TB back in 2022 and have been using it extensively as my main SSD for editing footage and other tasks. Recently, I returned from a work trip during which I didn’t use the SSD for about 6–7 months. Upon plugging it in again, I noticed the following...

    Thank you! I agree with you. Perhaps waiting a few more months would be ideal, whether for the new Intel CPU or possibly a better price on the i9-14900K.

    Question File Corruption on Portable Samsung T7 Shield SSD ?

    Good morning! I used the free file sync to check byte-by-byte the files and they are the same through my back-ups. Since I changed the cable everything is ok. I will test it further and I will let you know :)

    Question File Corruption on Portable Samsung T7 Shield SSD ?

    usually, I safely remove the disk but sometimes I just eject it after shutting down the PC. So would you recommend me to let it be checked? or disable it?

    Question File Corruption on Portable Samsung T7 Shield SSD ?

    Thank you! I will check it out; it seems easier than FreeFileSync. I hope it's also easier to use! Overall, do you think I should send the SSD back to Samsung for a check? Or would it be better to test alternative fixes like trying a different cable? Additionally, when I checked through Disk...

    Question File Corruption on Portable Samsung T7 Shield SSD ?

    Thanks for the tip! The cable provided by Samsung is around 40cm long (excluding the ends). However, I connected the drive using my Inteso cable, which is shorter.

    Question File Corruption on Portable Samsung T7 Shield SSD ?

    First, I think I should do a backup and then check the cables, power, and settings. If nothing works out, I will send it to Samsung for a replacement. If I get a new HDD, is it okay to copy-paste all the files, or would it be better to use backup software? Any recommendations will be appreciated.

    Question File Corruption on Portable Samsung T7 Shield SSD ?

    1.The format is in exFAT so I can write and read files in MacOs 2. I checked and "enable write caching on the device" is enabled! Maybe that's why when the ssd is removed the files are not transfered? 3. I have 2 main back-ups but today i will get a brand new disk to transfer all files from my...

    Question File Corruption on Portable Samsung T7 Shield SSD ?

    Sadly, I don't have one, but I will purchase one to try it. However, I wonder why the problem appeared after 6 months. Also, for years, I've been using regular external HDDs to save huge file projects, etc. So, from what I understand, the problem may be with the MO-USB-C port?
