Samsung T9 Portable SSD (2 TB)

The T9 2TB is the pro-tier, higher-capacity version of Samsung's 2,000 MB/s USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 portable SSD. It is built for multi-day shoot offloads where the extra room matters. For budget kits the 1TB covers most needs, so step up to this only if your capture volume genuinely warrants the larger capacity.
