Samsung’s 4TB pocket SSD just dropped to its best price (save $180)

Cloud storage is cool and all, but what are you going to do when your internet is down? Or your account gets hacked? Or your cloud service shuts down and leaves you high and dry?

Relying on cloud storage is risky, which is why you should also have a physical drive—ideally one that’s portable, with tons of space, that you can take with you on the go as needed.

Well, one of our favorite options just fell to its best price ever: the 4TB version of Samsung’s T7 portable SSD is on sale for $300, a significant drop from its usual $480 (38% off).

The Samsung T7 is designed for creators, photographers, and anyone who has lots of media. With PCIe NVMe technology, this SSD has lightning-fast read/write speeds of up to 1,050/1,000 MB/s. It’s fast enough to record 4K 60fps videos directly to the drive.

With a massive 4TB capacity, the Samsung T7 can store everything from “fat” work files to 4K videos to game data for massive AAA games. The T7 allows you to organize all your important files on one compact device that fits easily in your pocket or bag.

And yes, it’s seriously compact. At just 3.3 inches long by 2.2 inches wide and 0.3 inches thick, with a feather weight of 2.5 ounces, this thing is almost invisible and you’ll forget you even have it on you.

Samsung’s T7 SSD is built out of solid aluminum, providing shock resistance and fall protection up to six feet. Whether you accidentally drop it or it gets tossed around inside a bag, you can trust the T7 to withstand those bumps along the way.

Portable SSDs with 4TB capacity don’t come cheap, but the Samsung T7 is one of the best and it’s absolutely worth it for $300. If you want to save some cash, the other capacity options are also on sale:
