Silicon Power Armor A15 2.5" SP010TBPHDA15S3K 1 TB

The safety of footage is an extremely important point in the work of photographers and videographers. A secure external HDD from the world-famous manufacturer of memory devices, the Taiwanese company Silicon Power, will help you get rid of worries about the integrity of your files.

Impact resistance

The Winchester is dressed in a protective rubberized “suit”, which protects the internal “filling” of the model from failure when exposed to impacts on the body. Silicon Power Armor A15 has been certified according to the American military standard MIL-STD-810F, which indicates its resistance to damage in the event of falls from a height of about 1.22 m. The only problem with the external HDD is its friendship with water, but the manufacturer’s model range also includes “ waterfowl" specimens (for example, Silicon Power Armor A80).

Backup

Maximum data safety in the hard drive's memory is achieved through the use of a backup function - by pressing a single button on the case, important user information is copied to a predefined folder. This feature will be extremely useful for those who plan to use the device as a backup storage for photos, documents or favorite music.

Speed characteristics

When you connect an external drive to your PC, the activity indicator framed by the aforementioned backup button lights up. It glows blue when using the USB 2.0 interface and red when connected via a USB 3.0 port. According to the manufacturer, the data exchange speed in the latter case is up to 5 Gbit/s, but in reality it fluctuates within 100 MB/s, which is applicable for both reading and writing files. However, everything else tips the scales in favor of Silicon Power Armor A15 and makes it the preferred option for purchase by everyone who is interested in reliable information security.
