In fact, it blows the T5 model out of the water. Speedwise, short data transfers are amazingly fast on the T7. Other comparable devices cost about the same but don't offer the data security that the T7 does. For the price, you get a high-speed drive plus data protection. In any event, the non-touch version of the T7 is excellent if you only plan to use the drive on computers that you own.

Samsung offers the same drive with a fingerprint reader that is hardware-based and does unlock the drive without the need for the software (other than initial device setup). If Samsung could figure out a way to build the password protection into the hardware of the device, bypassing the software unlocking, it would be perfect. These two downsides are the only negative to an otherwise almost perfect USB drive. Likewise, if you forget your password, there is no way to recover it, and the data on the drive is lost. Without the software, the drive will not unlock.

This software requirement severely limits where you can use the drive, and requires you to have administrative rights on every computer to install the software. In other words, the hardware encryption is dependent on software to enter the password to decrypt the drive. The only downside to the password protection (and the reason for my 4-star review instead of five) is that it requires Samsung's software to be installed on the computer you are using to access this drive. The drive offers 256bit AES hardware encryption. I work in the government healthcare field, so this drive is a must.
It is roughly the size of a credit card and fits almost anywhere! It features password security that encrypts the drive and keeps the contents safe, so it is perfect if you have sensitive or confidential data, or work in an environment where data must be protected. It is swift (10Gbps), assuming you have a compatible USB 3.2 port. Super-Compact Super Drive! The T7 is a USB 3.2 (Gen2) drive that is super light and super small. Please find the compatible devices list on ** T7 is compatible with USB 3.0 and USB 2.0. Some operating systems may require T7 reformatting. * Compatibility with host devices may vary.
