On a compatible 20Gb\/s host, sequential reads and writes reach up to 2,000MB\/s under Samsung test conditions. The compact textured enclosure, supplied connection cables and optional password protection make it useful for moving working files between suitable devices. Match the drive to the host's actual USB capabilities to make the most of its performance.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch2\u003eHighlights\u003c\/h2\u003e \u003ch3\u003eHigh-Bandwidth File Transfers\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUSB 3.2 Gen 2x2 at 20Gb\/s with UASP support.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eSequential reads and writes up to 2,000MB\/s; capacity and host conditions apply.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDesigned for Mobile Work\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompact textured enclosure with a non-slip finish.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eUSB-powered operation with USB-C to C and USB-C to A cables supplied.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e \u003ch3\u003eProtection and Drive Management\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOptional password protection with AES 256-bit hardware encryption.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eSamsung Dynamic Thermal Guard and a five-year limited warranty.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e \u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e \u003ch3\u003eMore Bandwidth for Large Working Files\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe T9 uses NVMe storage technology behind a USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 interface to move substantial project folders, high-resolution photographs and video files. Sequential reads and writes reach up to 2,000MB\/s under Samsung test conditions, with write ratings varying by capacity. It can serve as a portable working library between locations, while actual transfer times depend on the files, host, cable and workload. Maximum speed figures are test results rather than a constant rate for every transfer.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eMatch the Connection to the Performance\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003eTo use the full interface bandwidth, the host and connection cable must support USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 at 20Gb\/s, with UASP enabled. A USB-C connector by itself does not establish those capabilities. A faster-labelled Thunderbolt or USB4 port also needs explicit support for the drive's USB connection mode; it does not automatically provide Gen 2x2 operation. On other supported USB connections, the T9 works within the available connection speed.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eEasy to Carry Between Workspaces\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe compact 88 × 60 × 14mm body fits alongside a laptop, camera accessories or other mobile equipment. A dotted, non-slip finish provides a textured grip, and the nominal device weight is approximately 122g, subject to capacity and measurement variation. USB-powered operation removes the need for a separate mains adapter. The included USB-C to C and USB-C to A cables give you connection options for compatible hosts, with the host port determining the supported transfer rate.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eStorage Across Compatible Devices\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003eSamsung lists compatibility with Windows, macOS, Android phones and tablets, selected consoles, televisions and cameras. Check the intended device's storage support, USB power and file-system requirements, particularly when moving the drive between different platforms. Some hosts require reformatting, which erases existing files. Camera recording formats and console playback rules depend on the specific host and application, so the T9's transfer-speed specification alone does not establish support for every recording or gaming workflow.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eOptional Password Protection for Mobile Files\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003eAES 256-bit hardware encryption supports optional password protection through compatible Samsung software. This is useful when the drive carries working documents or other files that should require a password before access. Confirm that each intended host supports the required unlocking software before enabling protection; support on a computer does not establish the same behaviour on a camera or console. Keep the password secure and maintain a separate copy of important data.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eManage the Drive with Current Samsung Software\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003eSamsung Magician provides supported tools for drive information, health checks, security and firmware maintenance. Available functions depend on the device, operating system, software version and connection. Current Magician 9 requirements are Windows 10 or later, macOS Catalina 10.15 or later, or Android 7.0 or later. Those application requirements are separate from basic storage compatibility. Firmware updates require an internet connection, and important files should be backed up before maintenance.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eThermal Control During Demanding Transfers\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003eSamsung Dynamic Thermal Guard helps manage heat and reduce potential performance loss from overheating. Give the drive suitable airflow during long transfers and use it within the stated operating range. Samsung's operating-temperature specification is measured at the hottest point of the case. The drive is designed in compliance with IEC 62368-1, and Samsung reports controlled thermal-safety testing; those laboratory conditions should not be treated as a promise of one surface temperature in every environment.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDurability with Defined Warranty Conditions\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003eSamsung tests drop resistance up to 3M under controlled free-fall conditions. The result provides useful design information, while real impacts depend on the surface, angle and environment. Physical damage from dropping the drive is excluded from the warranty. The T9 carries a five-year limited warranty under Samsung's terms, with a separate typical-use condition for its LED component. Careful handling and an independent backup remain important when the drive travels with your work.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch2\u003eSummary\u003c\/h2\u003e \u003cp\u003eSamsung T9 suits users who regularly carry large creative files and have a compatible host that can make use of its 20Gb\/s USB interface. Its compact design, supplied cables, thermal management and optional password protection support flexible mobile workflows. Check connection speed, host formatting and software support before setup, then keep a separate backup of the files that matter.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Samsung","offers":[{"title":"1TB","offer_id":41508389388347,"sku":"MU-PG1T0B\/WW","price":389.0,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true},{"title":"2TB","offer_id":41508389421115,"sku":"MU-PG2T0B\/WW","price":789.0,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true},{"title":"4TB","offer_id":41508389814331,"sku":"MU-PG4T0B\/WW","price":1599.0,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0557\/4541\/3179\/files\/samsung-t9-usb-32-gen-2x2-portable-ssd-6237373.png?v=1791530168","url":"https:\/\/aceperipherals.com\/fil\/products\/samsung-t9","provider":"ACE Peripherals","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
