Recently was able to try out the Samsung T9 Portable SSD. First and foremost the design is rugged yet elegant, and very tiny. Super portable and easy to take with you. Secondly, the speed is pretty impressive, however the drive does not support Thunderbolt (3/4), but rather USB 3.2 gen 2x2. In my testing on an M1 Pro MacBook Pro (Mac does not support 3.2 gen 2x2) I was able to achieve transfer speeds of 850MB/s to 1400MB/s. Certainly shy of the 2000MB/s, but as expected without the proper support on Mac. If you are a Mac user and in the market for an ultra-portable, SSD - I would probably look for the T7 as that speed is achievable on Mac, and the pricing is certainly better. However if you just like the design, or have devices capable of USB 3.2 g 2x2 then I also have no issue recommending this device either.
