Samsung SSD T1 review: Speed thrills but it comes at a price

Last month Samsung launched its SSD T1 hard disk in India. It is a unique product. It is an external hard disk, but doesn't look like one. Instead it looks like a very small business card holder, something that you can easily slip into your shirt pocket. And yet, it can pack in ridiculous amount of data.Actually, the SSD T1 is a rethinking of the conventional external hard disks. Unlike the conventional disks that use moving parts, the SSD T1 uses the flash-based storage. This is the same technology that goes inside solid state drives (SSDs) that have become popular with desktop users and laptop makers like Apple.
