Thank you so much! I can't believe I couldn't figure out how to find my DCIM on my Galaxy S21 from the menu and then get back to the SSD. That back arrow in the top left is obvious, but was not to me. Thanks for the step-by-steps with troubleshooting and the clear instructions. I can now directly move files from phone to my SSD drive without hooking both up to my laptop and wasting an extra 30 minutes every time.

Thanks for this informative and clear video. I'm wondering if there is a 'right' way to disconnect/ eject the SSD from the phone afterwards so that data is not lost? Also, for how many years might the T7 SSD last before we'd need to replace it? thanks again.

May be a stupid question, can you view pictures and watch videos straight from the phone when the ssd is plugged in? Rather than moving the files to the phone.

If yes, is it smooth and fast while playing videos?

[buddysmith]

I hope you can answer a couple questions. 1) how do you charge the T7 if you don't have a computer? 2) Can you COPY photos/video instead of MOVING so I have them in both places?

I have a galaxy s20fe and a t7 shield, when I plug into the mac the t7 shield turns on but when I do the same with my phone it does not. but other hard drives seem to work but not the t7 shield. please help

I'm having a heck of a time. Just to let you know, I'm completely UNSAVVY on technology, but that doesn't stop me from trying! I have a Samsung S23 Ultra and a Samsung T7 SSD. Could you please post a video of transferring pictures from the S23 to the T7. I'm on my second week of trying to do this Thank you in advance!

Wait! Samsung T7 and T7 Shield will not let you backup when your phone are using SD card. There are no setup that let you choose where to Backup phone. I Have Samsung S20 with SD card and it only let you Backup to SD card.
Does it only work when you're using internal storage?
Thanks for always giving great 👍

Is it possible to record video directly to the sdd? That would be amazing for a youtuber, for instance. I've got Galaxy A71. Thank

[snagrbuster]

Great video!! However I have a question Please, Can the videos downloaded from YouTube, onto an android phone, be transferred to an SSD external drive (in my case, its a "WD "My Passport")! Thank you

[Bangbangboom]

nice video. Question though. Provided there's enough space in your portable ssd, Can two or three different samsung phones share and back-up their files into just one portable SSD?

[misspennny]

I just purchased the Samsung portable ssd t7 and installed the app on my S20 to use this portable ssd and i keep on getting restart my phone. Expected to not have any issues with a new device. I want to throw it out the window

How come the videos dont have a preview pic when its on the drive. That kinda sucks when trying to find the video your looking for on the drive.

[eddie]

Thanks for video ! If i have my phone backed up to samsung cloud, is their really ant point of useing this ? Is just an extra layer of protection incace something goes wrong with the cloud, or will this do a better job at restoreing my phone they way was set up before ?

[marianacastrejon]

Hello this video is amazing. I was wondering if you can help me. Ive been looking into the Samsung t5 and t7 to use for my Samsung s21 and I have a question I’m properly going to get a IPhone 15 plus very soon and was wondering if I will have any problems with connecting it to it. Like would I have to change the format, is the t5 or t7 better for this situation or is there anything I should know. thank you

[donniethesportsguy]

Do you know if you can record videos directly to the portable ssd like how iPhone 15 pro can (from a galaxy phone)

[limtseho]

Great video! I have a question: can this samsung t7 interchange files from my Mac to the t7 and than the t7 over to my samsung a73? Thank you so much

[norcalpacific]

What did you have password encryption enabled on the drive through Samsung's built-in software? Can you still unlock it on the phone?

[juliamckenzie]

How do you do the opposite? Put phone files on the drive??

[izaigacet]

Hey man ran across this video. I’m about to purchase a t7 shield for myself and mom. I recently bought my mom her first iMac and she’s transitioning from pc and to Mac. (I’m also new to the iOS world. Limited knowledge) should I keep the t7 on eXfat till all files are off of the pc and into the Mac and then switching to APFS or will switching from eXfat to APFS delete or mess up the files on the ssd?
Also we both have some Samsung phones that we want to get some videos and photos out and onto the drive.
