Anyone having issues with 4TB Samsung SDD's?

[Daniel D. Teoli Jr.]

Along with HDD, I've been using Samsung SDD for years. And the rock solid, last ditch, backup effort is an optical disc library composed of M-Disc and archival Blu-ray.  The dozen or so SDD's I have used are Samsung .5TB, 1TB and 2TB. Never a problem with any of them. Thought I'd try some 4TB Samsung SDD's. The 4TB Samsung portable T7 broke in the middle of the first transfer of 600GB. Computer won't recognize now, won't light up...nothing. There seems to be lots of issues with Samsung SDD.

I also tried 2 internal 4TB Samsung 870 EVO with enclosures for external use. Problems there as well, but still can't say 100% as I'm trying new enclosures. But no doubt with the 4TB portable T7 that is dead. 

Samsung used to be top shelf, no worries. What the hell happened to them?

A correction SDD should be SSD in previous post. I always get them mixed up with HDD.
