Samsung states that the BAR Plus survives 72 hours in seawater at a depth of 1 metre, shocks of up to 1500 G, magnetic fields of up to 15,000 gauss and the radiation of airport X-ray machines. The operating temperature is 0–60 °C. Samsung Magician software lets you verify the drive is genuine, monitor its health and benchmark its speed.
Travellers and field workers whose drive ends up in the rain, a beach bag or airport security; people who play films on a TV or music in the car, as Samsung lists PCs, Macs, smart TVs and cars with a USB Type-A port as compatible; and anyone who needs large capacity in a tough metal body.

According to Samsung, yes: BAR Plus is compatible with PCs, Macs, smart TVs and cars that have a USB Type-A port. In an older USB 2.0 port it runs slower.
Samsung tested the drive for 72 hours in seawater at a depth of 1 metre. The connector should be dry before you plug it into a computer.
That is normal for flash drives. This model writes at up to 110 MB/s and reads at up to 400 MB/s; actual speed depends on the computer and the files.
