Samsung has unveiled a new Portable SSD T5 built with the company's latest 64-layer V-NAND technology.
Delivering stunning speeds of up to 540 MB/s – up to 4.9 times faster than external HDD products – the new T5 is designed especially for content creators, business and IT professionals as well as mainstream consumers to give instant, easy access to data.
