Bulletproof
A-Data has eaten more than one dog in the production of secure HDDs, so it is not surprising that they released one of the first secure SSDs on the market. A-Data Durable SD700 outwardly resembles a black box sealed in several layers of protection in an airplane, which can easily lie on the seabed (IP68 protection class says about 60 minutes at a depth of one and a half metres), is not afraid of dust, bumps and shaking. In the latter case, we are talking about compliance with the military standard MIL-STD-810G. Although, we would scold the rubber stopper to protect it from moisture: the rubber bumper does not have a clear fixation on the case, so the stopper can be accidentally torn off when you take the drive out of your backpack or pocket. This is the only downside to the design. Otherwise, there is a suspicion that he can die only from old age.
Games at supersonic speed
The drive itself works on the basis of a modern type of memory, the disk capacity is 512 GB, the linear speed is 440 MB / s when reading and 430 MB / s during writing. This is neither more nor less than the average temperature in the ward. Moreover, the test results are identical to the passport indicators. It behaves especially well when working with numerous small files that ordinary flash drives suffer from. When writing very large files of several tens of gigabytes, the speed quickly sags as the SLC buffer quickly fills up. There is no need to be afraid of this, because
Issue price
As you can see, in terms of speed, this is quite a standard SSD, which stands out for its protection. Therefore, the decisive issue when choosing will be the price. And over the past six months, it has settled down at around $150. This is almost a third higher than other popular models like Samsung Portable T5 and Transcend ESD230C. Therefore, from our point of view, it makes sense to overpay if you are going to regularly carry it with you and take care of data protection. If the drive will lie near the console 99% of the time, there is no point in overpaying for its protection. Still, SSDs are not as delicate as conventional hard drives with a bunch of mechanical parts.
