Samsung T9 Overview

Learn from B&H Experts

From Manufacturer

Designed for content creators, the compact Samsung 2TB T9 Portable SSD now delivers a sequential read speed of up to 2,000 MB/s, which is nearly double its predecessor, the T7. The sequential write speed is up to 1950 MB/s, while photographers will be happy to know that the sustained write speed is up to 1000 MB/s (after Turbowrite). The T9 now features a USB-C 3.2 Gen 2x2 port, delivering up to 20 Gb/s of max throughput. When it comes to the design, the T9 has curved diagonal lines and reverse carbon patterns, which gives its rubber surface a more fabric-like feel and a soft touch. Add low idle power consumption and reliable durability, and the T9 is ready to join in the field.

Note: To achieve maximum advertised speeds, please make sure your computer or host device is certified to support the 20 Gb/s USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 connection. Apple devices, including those with Thunderbolt/USB4, do not support 20 Gb/s USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 and will be limited to 10 Gb/s USB 3.2 Gen 2.

Performance
In addition to the T9's impressive transfer speed of up to 2,000 MB/s, T9's Turbowrite buffer size was increased to suit the usability of content creators. For sustained performance, the T9 has a write speed up to 1,000 MB/s (after Turbowrite) without any sudden performance drops, which is essential for high-end camera users.
Wide Compatibility, Including Galaxy and iPhone
The T9 is compatible with the Apple iPhone 15/Pro/Pro Max, with support for ProRes 1080p/30 fps, 4K/30 fps, and 4K/60 fps. The T9 is also compatible with Samsung Galaxy smartphones.
Thermals
The T9 does not have any performance drops due to thermal throttling.
Power
The T9 has five times lower power consumption in its idle state compared to competitors. Idle power consumption is important, since PSSD completes host commands quickly and drops back to idle status for the remaining time.
Durability and Reliability
Samsung verifies and guarantees durability through various evaluations that simulate behavioral patterns using PSSD in real life, such as the tumbler test, drop test, and load test.
Design
The T9 features curved diagonal lines and reverse carbon patterns on the surface, giving the rubber a fabric-like feel and a soft touch.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Samsung Portable SSD T9 4TB has honestly become a big part of my daily setup. Right away I noticed how easy the compatibility is — I can plug it into pretty much anything I use, and it just works without me having to mess around with settings or formats. That alone saved me alot of time. The durability surprised me too. I’m not the most gentle with my gear, and this thing has been tossed in my backpack, dropped once or twice, and bumped around in the car. Still works perfect, no cracks or weird behavior. What I really like is the responsiveness. Opening huge folders or editing files straight off the drive feels instant. No lag, no freezing, no “loading…” moments that slow me down. It reacts fast every single time.Thermals were a problem with my last SSD, but the T9 stays cool even when I’m moving big projects. It gets a little warm, but never hot enough to worry about or cause slowdown. The thermals are way better than I expected. And the throughput is crazy good. I’m seeing close to the advertised speeds, and big transfers finish way quicker than I’m used to. It doesn’t choke halfway through or drop off in performance.Overall, the T9 4TB has become a reliable part of my routine. It’s fast, tough, and easy to use, and it honestly just makes my work smoother every day.

Do LabelMaker labels stick to the surface, for sending drives to clients, organizing drives on set, etc?
Asked by: Nick
The rubberized texture on the Samsung 2TB T9 Portable SSD may be difficult to stick labels directly on. You could apply gaff tape to the SDD, then apply the label to the gaff tape.

Asked by: fahd
The Samsung 2TB T9 Portable SSD is fast enough, but due to a in camera restrictions, you can not record RAW or anything over 4K 60P when using third party SSDs. The DJI PROSSD 1TB is the only SSD which does not have recording restrictions placed on it.

Does it work at 20Gbps if Apple Thunderbolt 4 (USB‐C) Pro Cable is used with MacBook Pro M3?
Asked by: Muhammad
The fastest transfer speed standard on the Samsung 2TB T9 Portable SSD is USB-C 3.2 X 2, which tops out at 20Gbps.However, this is 10x the rated read speed of this model. The actual speed will still top out at the read/write limits of the drive, not the USBC 3.2 transfer medium.
