Black Samsung T7 SSD with red initials AP
Description
Hey, I lost my black Samsung T7 Shield external SSD, a 512GB digital media backup drive, yesterday around 3pm near the MSU Library parking lot outside the campus bookstore in Mankato, Minnesota. It's a portable drive with a gray bumper and a red sticker on the back that has the initials 'AP'. There's a tiny dent on the top-right corner and a faint scratch along the edge from a busy editing session, but the drive is otherwise in decent shape. It holds important client work and a few personal photo projects, so it really matters to me and has sentimental value; if you found it, please drop me a note—I'll come pick it up ASAP and I can describe the exact contents to verify ownership.

How to safely get your item back
A short checklist to protect you and the item during the handoff.
Verify the finder before meeting
- Ask them to describe a detail not shown in your listing, such as an engraving, scratch, or contents.
- Request a clear photo of the item from an angle you did not post.
- Do not pay any release, shipping, or storage fee.
- Do not share your full address until you have verified them.
Meet in a safe, public place
- Police stations, café entrances, transport hubs, and shop foyers all work.
- Meet during daylight hours where there is CCTV and foot traffic.
- Avoid private homes, car parks at night, or isolated locations.
Bring someone with you
- Tell a friend or family member where you are meeting and when.
- Share your live location with them during the handoff.
- For high-value items, consider contacting your local police station for advice first.
Keep communication on lostandfound.io
- Use the in-app message thread so there is a record if something goes wrong.
- Do not move to WhatsApp, SMS, or email until you have exchanged a verifying detail.
- Never share bank details, government ID numbers, or copies of your ID.
