Samsung T7 Shield 1TB Test: An external hard drive that is not afraid of shocks or water

Technical characteristics are similar to those of the rest of the T7 series. Thus there is a USB-C connector standard USB 3.2 Gen2 at 10 Gbit / s; It is enough to allow up to 1050MB/s in sequential reading and 1000MB/s in writing. Warranty 3 years, without specification on write endurance.

The Samsung T7 Shield comes with two 45cm USB-C cables, one leading to a USB-C connector and one to a USB-A connector. During use, we discovered an unusual design flaw in a case of this type: USB-C cables cannot be fully inserted and result in incomplete suspension and USB disconnection simply by handling the case. In the question, the USB-C connector is tucked too far behind the plastic front. A particularly disappointing point from Samsung.
