Silicon Power Armor A85B 2TB USB 3.2 Gen1 Portable HDD Review

Storage/HDD by stefan @ 2023-04-10

The Armor A85B 2TB USB 3.2 Gen1 Portable HDD from Silicon Power does employ a WD Blue 2.5’’ drive, which makes good use of the 128MB of caching preinstalled on its board; in certain workloads, it can offer very good transfer speeds, but only when writing very small quantities of data to the HDD, otherwise it will behave the same as a regular 2.5’’ 5400RPM.

Product Features:

 

One Tough Nut to Crack

Featuring the highest level of protection, the Armor A85B is an impenetrable fortress. A sturdy internal suspension system, seamless rubber covering, and robust aluminum casing result in a triple-layer construction that's 500kg pressure-resistant and 3m military-grade shockproof. It's tough enough to keep your data safe and sound from drops, bumps, or pressure – because accidents happen.

Sealed Tight with IP68 Protection

With its ultra-tough and seamless casing, the Armor A85B is also IP68-rated for extra outdoor protection. This means it resists dust penetration and can withstand water immersion of up to 1m depth, so it's airtight sealed to keep out two of the most common threats to a drive. This makes it the perfect place to store or access your data when you're out in the wild.

Nothing To Lose with This Design

Are you one to constantly misplace cables when you need them the most? The Armor A85B's design has your back with a handy built-in cable-carry band because, wherever you need to access your data, the cable should be right there with you.

Super-Speed USB 3.2 Gen 1: Edit, Transfer, Move On

With super-speed USB 3.2 Gen 1 interface, the Armor A85B 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.
