ADATA brings rugged and portable external hard drive: HD720

ADATA launched the HD720 ruggedized USB 3.0 external hard drive. The HD720 has been crafted for travelers and users that demand the most durable portable storage. Highly robust, it meets strict dust, water, and shock resistance requirements and ships in several capacities up to 2TB.

The HD720 complies with strict IEC/EN 60529 IP68 specifications and requirements. It offers complete dust tight protection for stable and easy operation in particulate-infused environments. Because of its sporty design, HD720 does not require special care in terms of dust-proofing. HD720 is a water resistance device and is deigned for up to 120 minutes of submersion in water at a depth of up to 2 m. ADATA has also designed the HD720 to surpass the already-tough MIL-STD-810G 516.6 drop test. The HD720 is coated in custom-weaved flexible silicone arranged in three layers for serious shock resistance

The drive features a smart G Shock sensor that halts drive read/write operation should a shock beyond a preset threshold occur. This prevents data corruption and loss, with drive operation resuming once the shock has subsided. Users are alerted to this with red and blue indicator lights. HD720 external drives are offered in capacities of up to 2TB. The HD720 uses smart cable management, the wire tucking safely into a wraparound groove for pack-and-go convenience.
