I reviewed the Samsung T9 for Cult of Mac and was very pleased with it. It’s about the size of a credit card but thicker, which means it fits very easily in my gear bag.
But I can’t decide if that’s my favorite feature. Because I also really like that the Samsung SSD is compatible with so many different devices. The drive includes a USB-C port so of course it works with my iPad Pro, but I can also use it with pretty much any device with a USB-A port. It even comes bundled with the necessary cables for both types of ports.
When I was writing the review, I successfully tested the Samsung T9 drive with a variety of computers. That includes the iPhone 16 and iPhone 15 now that they include a standard USB-C port. Or I can plug it into my TV and play video. Those who still have an iPhone with a Lightning port can connect through an adapter.
And it’s fast. I can move a 1 GB file from my computer to the drive and vice versa in 2 seconds.
Plus, Samsung added a rubber coating to the exterior so the drive can survive drops up to 9.8 feet (3 meters).
All of this makes the T9 an ideal place to store a collection of music, videos, images, ebooks, etc. that you’d like to access on the go and/or with a range of computers.
And think about this: if you having an aging Mac with a too-tiny HD, you can get this SSD and bulk up your storage capacity. And when you get a replacement Mac you’ll still be able to use the accessory for storage.
Just about all of this is also true for the older Samsung T7 series except that it lacks the protective outer coating. I reviewed it too.
