<p>Portable SSDs are finally starting to come down in price as competition is continuing to ramp up between manufacturers. In the spring we saw Western Digital unveil (https://9to5toys.com/2017/04/06/western-digital-my-passport-ssd-external-ssd/) a new line of USB-C drives designed for Apple’s latest MacBooks. Fast forward to today, and Samsung is refreshing its popular external storage solutions with its new T5 offerings.</p>
<p>USB-C is at the forefront of these new Samsung drives but those still rocking USB-A will be able to take advantage, too. Hidden amongst today’s announcement is that the T5 lineup (http://amzn.to/2fItqEm) will be able to hit speeds up to 540MB/s, which is right on level with Samsung’s internal desktop SSDs. More details below.</p>
