Product details

The Samsung Portable SSD T5 is a really good external memory. The drive has a powerful USB 3.1 interface with type C connector and uses the reliable and robust Samsung V-NAND flash memory technology.
This allows transfer rates of up to 540 MB/s to be achieved, so that you don't have to wait long even when transferring very large amounts of data such as high-resolution photos or 4K UHD videos. In addition, the Portable SSD T5 impresses with its chic design, compact dimensions and low weight, so that you can always have important data with you in the future. The integrated, optional data encryption with password according to the AES standard with 256-bit offers a high level of protection using the latest security technologies. A reinforcing inner frame also offers physical protection, for example against falls from up to 2 m height.
