The Samsung T7 Shield is the same ultra-fast SSD as the T7, just with a rugged exterior.
Samsung T7 Shield review: Portable, protected storage MSRP $160.00 Score Details DT Recommended Product “” Pros Cons Samsung is expanding its T7 family with the T7 Shield — an external SSD built on the bones of the best external SSD you can buy, but with a focus on durability. That comes in the form of a soft rubber shell, dust and water resistance, and a little extra protection against drops.
In exchange for a little more size, the drive offers three meters of drop resistance, as well as IP65 water and dust resistance. The T7 Shield is far from the first rugged external SSD. However, it shoots ahead of options like the SanDisk Extreme V2 with better drop, water, and dust resistances. Pricing Despite offering more physical protection than the T7 Touch, the T7 Shield isn’t more expensive. Samsung is offering the drive for $160 for 1TB or $280 for 2TB. Both the T7 Shield and Touch are $10 to $40 more expensive than the base T7 depending on the capacity.
Performance The T7 Shield uses the same SSD inside the T7 and T7 Touch — a proper NVMe SSD that’s capable of sequential read speeds of 1,050 MB/s. That’s not what you’ll get in most cases, as I’ll dig into below, but in the world of external hard drives, the T7 Shield offers the fastest storage you can access over a USB connection.
