Blazing-fast 4TB external SSD with USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 speeds up to 2000MB/s. Perfect for content creators with massive file libraries.

High-Speed USB Pro Analysis

Pro-grade USB storage: the Samsung T9 Portable 4TB hits 2.0 GB/s reads and 1.9 GB/s writes for a fraction of Thunderbolt pricing.

USB Speed Done Right

Think of the Samsung T9 Portable 4TB as Thunderbolt performance without the Thunderbolt price. 2.0 GB/s reads and 1.9 GB/s writes over USB 3.2 Gen 2×2 handle 4K/6K video, massive photo catalogs, and frequent large file transfers with room to spare.

Port Flexibility

Unlike Thunderbolt drives, the Samsung T9 Portable 4TB works with any USB-C or USB-A port, though Gen 2×2 speeds require a compatible host port. Connected to a standard USB 3.2 Gen 2 port, it still delivers up to 10 Gbps — enough for fast backups and everyday transfers.

Who it serves

Video editors who need fast external storage but cannot justify Thunderbolt prices
Content creators editing 4K video directly from external storage
IT professionals deploying bootable external drives for diagnostics and recovery
Creative teams sharing project files between workstations without a NAS

Few ultrabooks include true Gen 2x2 ports. Without one, this drive performs like a fast 10 Gbps USB 3.2 Gen 2 drive.
