Modern computers might have a lot of storage but we'll always need more. That's why external SSDs like the Samsung T7 Shield are so important, and we're big fans of this model in particular. Today only, you can pick one up for a song, and you even get to choose a color.

The Samsung T7 Shield would normally sell for around $100 but B&H Photo is currently offering it for just $60 thanks to a 40% coupon that is automatically applied during the checkout process. You'll have to act fast though as the blue color is already sold out and the black version is on backorder.

CNET reviewer Joshua Goldman was pretty impressed with the T7 Shield thanks to its ultracompact design and impressive durability. It's a portable solid-state drive that's roughly the size of a credit card, and boasts an IP65 weather-resistance rating, so it's protected against both water and dust. And thanks to its elastomer exterior it can survive drops of up to 3 meters. It boasts speedy performance too, with data transfer speeds of up to 1,050 MB per second. It uses a USB-C connection and is compatible with Mac, Windows and Android devices.

Whether you're looking to move data from one computer to another or just need to expand the storage you already have, this is a great way to do it -- and because it's rugged you don't need to baby it, too.
