Perfect Backup and Music Drive

Reviewed in the United States on March 17, 2014

Verified Purchase

I bought this specifically for downloading my cd's into digital format, without taking up hard drive space on my laptop. I've also never been one to back up my computers, but the M3 makes it very easy, automatic. The size makes it very portable, and the USB 3.0 transfers files as though it were moving it from folder to folder on the laptop's internal hard drive. Samsung products are OUTSTANDING!

This Samsung drive died suddenly 7 months after I got it.

My Toshiba and Seagate drives are still purring along.
As suggested by Amazon, I will select my replacement from ReviewLab.com's reviews of external hard drive ratings.

The shipment was on time. The External Hard Drive works fine with the Samsung LED TV.
We use it to store pictures and run them on the TV. Easy to use.
Much easier than having 10 USB sticks:) Would buy again.

Computer was dying and this external hard drive saved 5 years worth of family of 7 pictures, video and part time job documents before it was to late. Plenty of room left :-)

Good hard disk

Not the fastest HD on the market but good enough for backup and transport. These disks would be way more usable and environmental friendly if the carcasss could be reused.

Unresponsive after a few weeks, poor customer service but second hard drive working ok.

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on October 18, 2016

Verified Purchase

First appearances a good looking fairly compact hard drive. When functioning properly this hard drive worked like one should. Quick and responsive at being recognised by my computer and quick at transferring information. Frustratingly my first hard drive became less and less responsive with my mac and any other computer on other OS. Although the LED would light up and it would hum it just wouldn't be recognised. I have looked after it well so this wasn't an issue from being dropped or mis treated.

The returns process was pretty dire truth be told. If you are undertaking a return I recommend calling them up and speaking to someone as they are extremely helpful and it makes the process easier. Via email (which was the first way I attempted a return) it was such an inefficient process of stating your problem on the website, a member of the returns team would email you personally with ways they want you to rectify the problem and then you would have to start the process again with a different member of staff who would ask the same questions. It was extremely infuriating, time consuming (excess of 20 emails sent) and belittling as I am very competent with computers. Once this was all done the actual returning of the product was pretty straightforward. Ignore all the packaging they want on the website as it cost fifteen dollars and wasn't available in the UK, a box and bubble wrap was fine, based on the help of a lovely lady on the phone.

Second hard drive is working pretty well, only once had an issue of the hard drive not being recognised but otherwise its doing its job. Only thing I would like is a longer lead as its pretty short. In hindsight would I buy one again? Probably not but then with such an overwhelming number of positive reviews for it maybe I was just one of the unlucky ones.

Died (head crashed) and I lost all my data

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on September 2, 2015

Verified Purchase

It died after a year with very minimal use, and I paid a very expensive price of losing all my baby's pictures from day 1. It is very misleading that such a poor quality product has so many good reviews that encourages us to purchase the item despite so many people have faced a similar issue. I called the Samsung tech support and even though the product is still covered under warranty it does not cover for any recovery of data which I'm told can be done (95% possibility) for £500 + VAT. Yes, i will pay as it is an emotional blackmail in my case!!

Cheap drive, poor lifetime

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on September 14, 2014

Verified Purchase

I got this on a recommendation from a friend as it was cheap and had done him fair service. I figured that if it lasted a year I would have at least got my money's worth. Well, you get what you pay for really. This barely lasted a little over 6 months and has failed spectacularly since then. Not too sure what is going on but the drive constantly gets irreparably corrupted (I'm formatting as either Ext4 or HFS+ since I predominantly use both Mac and Linux machines) leaving me no choice but to completely reformat. Along the way, it seems to hang, or at least give serious headaches to, whatever machine the drive is connected to when it happens.

I've had experience with Samsung support before so at this point I'm simply going to call it quits and write the whole thing off as a lesson learned.

Since I don't believe in putting all my eggs in one basket, I also purchased a WD 2TB drive (My Passport Ultra) at the same time - same sort of usage - and that's given me no issues. I would strongly suggest that product over Samsung's.

(My friend's drive, purchased several months before mine and seeing the same sort of activity, is doing fine by the way. But he has always seemed much luckier with Samsung products than myself! :D )

Highly reccomended

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on April 10, 2015

Verified Purchase

I use it with my MacBook Pro and it works in harmony with Time Machine to produce backups nice and quickly, and make them accessible through a perfect interface.

When I upgraded from a 2009 MacBook White to a MacBook Pro in 2014, I transferred my data with this thing in a swift and easy process. No problems whatsoever.

Then, when my Mac files went haywire after downloading a new operating system, I would've lost everything had it not been for this thing - it effortlessly restored my computer the backup of the previous day and my computer was back on track.

If you need an external hard drive, get this one for sure.

Works well, very tactile, nice textured feel to this compact drive.

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on November 4, 2015

Verified Purchase

Using this attached to my Samsung smart tv for pausing, rewinding and recording live tv. Working well to date without complaint. Very quiet compact drive.
Happy with my first, I have now purchased a 2nd drive. The 3 year warranty is with Seagate & strangely enough you have to register the product serial number on the Seagate website.
