If you need extra storage space that you can take with you anywhere you go and will survive all your adventures (or clumsiness), the Samsung T7 Shield is the one to consider. Now that the 2TB version is listed down to just $150, you can snag one of these babies for 47% off—an amazing discount and the best price we’ve all year.

This is a solid SSD, literally. Samsung made sure it comes with a sleek and beautiful casing that protects your data. With an IP65 rating for water and dust resistance, as well as drop resistance from up to 9.8 feet, the T7 Shield is safe to take and use anywhere.

Not to mention its performance! It can move files to and from your computer at super-fast speeds, able to reach read speeds of up to 1,050 MB/s and write speeds of up to 1,000 MB/s. Got a lot of videos to move around? No problem. Want to play video games straight off the drive? Also not a problem. It’s tiny, performant, and durable. The trifecta.
