While the current market is focused on SSDs, HDDs are still popular for data backup and storing a large amount of data. An additional advantage of HDDs is their price per gigabyte, which is significantly lower than that of the SSD. Considering specific features of HDDs, Silicon Power continues releasing portable devices that let us carry more data and are friendly for our wallets. One of those portable HDD’s is the Armor A65B, which we present in today’s review.
Let’s begin the review, as usual, with specifications and features.
Military-Grade Shockproof Protection
Featuring advanced triple-layer protection, the Armor A65B is an expert in shock resistance. Compliant with military-grade drop test standards, two layers of rubber and a middle frame create a unibody design that makes the casing incredibly tough and durable with anti-slip and anti-scratch properties too. Meanwhile, an internal suspension system creates a vibration-dampening effect to reinforce stability.
Resist Water And Dust With IP67 Protection
Constructed with an arc-shaped and integrated frame, the Armor A65B is IP67-rated for extra outdoor protection. This means it resists dust penetration and can withstand water immersion of up to 1m depth for up to 30 minutes. With water and dust being the most common threats to a drive, the Armor A65B is sure to keep your data safe wherever adventures take you.
Nothing To Lose With This Unique Design
The Armor A65B’s innovative cable storage design, with the cable tucked in and fixed on the back side of the drive, effectively reduces the size and makes it easier to carry. It also ensures that you never misplace that loose, pesky cable again. Additionally, the drive stands out with its modern streamlined hull design, inspired by the flowing lines and curves of a luxury yacht.
Super-Speed USB 3.2 Gen 1: Edit, Transfer, Move On
With super-speed USB 3.2 Gen 1 interface, the Armor A65B delivers swift read and write speeds. This cuts the time needed to edit or transfer large files, including HD graphics and videos, to get the job done faster so you can move on to the next project.
The A65B USB HDD is not available in most stores yet, but you can buy another Silicon Power rugged USB HDD at a similar price. The Silicon Power A66 2TB USB 3.1 HDD costs around $68 in the Amazon store – https://amzn.to/3vfpSNC
