  • As more content is transacted digitally, it is becoming increasingly important to regularly and securely back-up data. With the vast majority of Australians trusting physical storage devices, and 90% seeing reliability as the most important factor when choosing how to back-up their data, Samsung aimed to deliver a device that could be secure, fast and durable, while still offering a slim, portable and stylish form factor.

  • Delivering transfer speeds of up to 540 MB/s – up to 4.9 times faster than many external HDD products – the T5 has a footprint smaller than an average business card and it is incredibly lightweight, comfortably fitting in the palm of your hand. With no moving parts and a shock-resistant internal frame, the T5 is designed to be able to withstand most accidental drops of up to two metres, while the Samsung Portable SSD Software for PCs and Macs makes it easy to configure security settings and receive the latest firmware and software updates.

  • The Samsung Portable SSD T5 caters to business professionals, photographers, videographers, creatives and heavy content users, enabling them to enjoy instant, easy access to data while on the go. The T5 is also a great addition to the home. By allowing for the easy storage of personal memories and rich, 4k content, Australians can rest assured their valuable data is safe and secure.

  • The Portable SSD T5 also features a mobile app for Android smartphones and tablets for even further convenience, as well as two connection cables – USB-C to C and USB-C to A – for enhanced compatibility across numerous devices. Samsung undertakes extensive research in Australia to understand the needs of Australians. Where trends are referenced, Samsung has pulled data from its Australians@HOME 2.0 research report and/or the Euromonitor International Megatrends 2018 report.
