I'm trying to buy samsung s7 ssd but I'm not sure whether it works with ipad pro 10.5 although I can verify from internet that it works with the latest iPads.
Do anybody know whether it works with the 10.5 inch ipad?
Thank you very much.
iPad Pro, iPadOS 14
Yes.
Any SSDs will work with iPads running, at least iPadOS 13 or later.
I would save some money and go for the cheaper Samsung T5 SSDs, instead, since your Apple Lightning connector/port equipped 2017, 10.5 inch screen iPad Pro will never achieve data transfer speeds anywhere near the specified USB-C/USB-3.0/3.1 data transfer speeds when using an iPad with Apple's proprietary Lightning/connector port.
You can purchase either any USB/USB-C flash drive stick or any USB-C SSD ( Solid State flash memory Drive ).
SSDs, unlike older, old school data storage hard drives are less power hungry and have no moving/spinning, electro-mechanical parts that need lots of power to operate.
Popular SSDs are from SanDisk/Western Digital, Samsung, Seagate.
Then, you need to purchase the actual, genuine Apple Lightning to USB-3 camera adapter, from Apple, and plug that adapter into external power using your iPad charge cable and Apple power/charging block!

You NEED TO PURCHASE THIS EXACT genuine Apple adapter above!!!
This is THE ONLY adapter that works!
Cheaper ( cheap in price and quality ) third party “knockoff” adapters WILL NOT WORK!!!!
With Lightning connector equipped iPads, you need this adapter as it has a Lightning connector power connection to power both the iPad and to connect a commonplace USB flash memory drive or portable SSD drive.
Without the additional power to the iPad, USB flash drives and portable SSD drives will NOT work with older iPads with the Lightning connector.
The Lightning connector alone cannot convey the,necessary power requirements needed for normal USB style flash memory drives.
YOU NEED TO CONNECT AN EXTERNAL POWER SOUCE TO THIS ADAPTER for that adapter to work with ANY externally connected drive!!! Even to get any standard USB flash memory drives to work on older Lightning connector equipped iPads.
There are lots of YouTube videos that discuss and demonstrate this.
Here are just two references, as an example.

In addition the external drive needs to be formatted into one of these file/data formats.
You MUST use a Mac computer to do the re-formatting of any external drive to use with iPad/iPhone/iOS/iPadOS.
Apple Mac computer native format.
