So Samsung has been updating USB storage line. Samsung today unveiled the Samsung Portable SSD T5, a portable solid state drive (SSD). Available in 250 gigabyte (GB), 500GB, 1 and 2 terabyte (TB) storage capacities, the Portable SSD T5 launches today globally in several countries and across the United States, European and Asian markets later this month. Powered by Samsung’s proprietary 3D Vertical NAND (V-NAND) technology, the Portable SSD T5 is a high-performance memory storage device

“The Portable SSD T5 allows people to store their entire digital portfolio locally in one place, take it with them anywhere and have blazing fast access to their data, all without worrying about reliability or security,” said Unsoo Kim, Senior Vice President of Branded Product Marketing, Memory Business at Samsung Electronics. “Our digital lives demand storage that surpasses the limits of existing options, which requires consumers to compromise, when it comes to mobility, capacity, security and performance. The Portable SSD T5 overcomes the drawbacks of alternative options on every major pain point, making it the next external storage device of choice.”

Tthe Portable SSD T5 saves people time with proper read/write speeds, enabling you to plug in and quickly grab your work to present to prospective clients or partners. In fact, the drive has sequential read/write speeds of up to 540 megabytes per second (MB/s) with a USB 3.1 Gen 2 super speed interface and random read/write speeds. The write speed is as responsive and fast as an internal SSD and up to 100 times faster than an external hard disk drive (HDD). Depending on the file size, the Portable SSD T5 has a data transfer speed four times faster than an external HDD. It takes only seconds to transfer a 3GB movie file and 27 seconds for a 10GB movie file compared to an external HDD which takes 26 seconds and 85 seconds, respectively.

The Samsung Portable SSD T5 is easy to set up and protect, so users can feel safe in the knowledge that their original work will not fall into the wrong hands or get lost. With just one password, the drive is safe from unwanted access thanks to AES 256-bit hardware encryption. Unlike an external HDD, the Portable SSD T5 has no moving parts, so it can withstand bumps and drops and people don’t need to worry about the wear and tear on moving parts that can result in corrupted data. It is shock resistant up to 1500G/0.5ms and features Dynamic Thermal Guard, which will activate in extreme temperature conditions to protect the drive and any stored data – so you can rest easy knowing the drive can withstand even the toughest elements.
