ADATA SD810 2000G USB-C 2TB External Solid State Drive - Black / IP68 Water Resistance / Up to 2000 MB/s Read/Write Speeds / USB 3.2 Gen 2 for iPhone 15/Pro/Max, Android / SD810-2000G-CBK + FREE DELIVERY !

The ADATA SD810 2TB is an external solid state drive reaching speeds of up to 2000 MB/s via USB 3.2 Gen 2, which is what turns a large transfer or a full backup into a short job. Its sleek black casing is IP68 rated for water and dust resistance, covering spills and rain, and 2TB holds a content creator's video and image libraries in one place.

The SD810 supports USB 3.2 Gen 2 x2 high-speed data transfer and achieves read and write speeds of 2000MB/s. It is IP68 rated for water, dust and impact resistance, is compatible with next-generation gaming consoles, and works with multiple operating systems, which is the complete set of claims ADATA makes for the drive.

USB 3.2 Gen 2 x2 delivers read and write rates up to 2000MB/s, nearly 20 times faster than conventional external HDDs at roughly 100MB/s. That gap is what lets video producers and photography experts edit and pull large files straight off the SD810. Reaching those speeds needs a host that supports USB 3.2 Gen 2 with UASP drivers installed.

A high-quality aluminium alloy casing pulls heat out of the drive so transfer speeds stay consistent under heavy use rather than tailing off partway through a long copy. The same casing keeps the SD810 light enough to carry anywhere, which is the balance most rugged enclosures give up to get their protection.

The SD810 meets the stringent IP68 standards for water and dust resistance, is nearly immune to dust ingress, and withstands immersion in water deeper than 1 metre for up to 60 minutes. ADATA rates it as leading the rugged external SSD market on both protection and speed. Those claims apply only when the USB port cover is securely closed.

The SD810 complies with the MIL-STD-810G 516.6 impact resistance standard, which covers drops from a height of up to 1.22 metres. That is the margin for an accidental fall from a desk or out of a bag during an outdoor transfer. ADATA notes the drive should function as expected afterwards, though intentional drops are not recommended.

The SD810 connects to the latest gaming consoles and adds room for the games that no longer fit inside internal console storage. It is physically smaller than a bank card, so it sits beside a console without claiming shelf space of its own. Formatting may be necessary before a console will accept the drive.

A single Type-C connection covers Android, macOS, Windows and other operating systems, so backups and transfers begin by plugging in. On a mobile device, check that its hardware and software support external SSD use for OTG transfers, and that the device supplies adequate power, since an underpowered connection is where transfer errors and data loss come from.
