Samsung has announced the launch of a new 4TB capacity T7 Shield portable Solid State Drive (SSD).

Described as the company's most durable drive to date, the T7 Shield is designed for outdoor content creators or travelers who want to secure and protect their data from exposure to the elements or life's mishaps.

The T7 Shield 4TB can combat the storage limitations of many devices. With 4TB of capacity, consumers can take more pictures on their phones, gamers can keep more titles in their game libraries, and creators can save hours of recorded video at resolutions up to 12K.

"As innovation in photo, video and graphics resolution technology evolves to be more life-like than ever, there is a need for higher capacity storage options to store and edit creations," said Jose Hernandez, Senior Director of Product Marketing at Samsung Electronics America. "Now at 4TB of capacity, the T7 Shield has enough room to store anything creators require while retaining its sleek and durable form factor and quick performance."




Highlights
The T7 Shield delivers a read speed of 1,050 megabytes per second (MB/s) and a write speed of 1,000 MB/s, which are approximately twice as fast as its predecessor, the T5. Faster speeds save valuable time for consumers, digital creators, and professionals by minimizing the time spent on loading screens or waiting for files to open or compress. The T7 Shield can handle the toughest creator tasks like video recording, editing, and rendering without suffering performance degradation or overheating thanks to its Dynamic Thermal Guard. Designed to work across multiple devices, Samsung's T7 Shield is compatible with PCs, Macs, Android smartphones, and game consoles.

The T7 Shield improves workflow efficiency and stores data in an easily accessible slim form factor. It is shock-resistant from drops of up to 10 feet and IP65-certified as dustproof and water resistant. Reliably secure, the T7 Shield supports AES 256-bit encryption. Despite the new rugged design, the T7 Shield is compact, easily fitting in a pocket, backpack, or camera bag and weighs a mere 3.5 ounces.

Whether on a photoshoot or family vacation, with Samsung's Magician Software, users can quickly and easily access real-time information, set preferences, and manage their Samsung SSD's performance, power usage, capacity, health, security capabilities, and more. Its newest feature, coming in February, is Data Migration, which is designed to help users upgrading the SSD in their laptop by transferring the operating system and data from an old SSD to a new one.




Pricing and Availability
The T7 Shield 4TB is available to purchase now for a suggested retail price of $429.99. It comes with a USB Type-C-to-C cable and a USB Type-C-to-A cable and includes a three-year limited warranty. Currently, you can get $20 off the SSD at the link below...
