Description

Military-grade protection from everyday mishaps

Incorporates a shock-resistant design, from the internal structure to the external surface, adding an extra shield to withstand drops and impacts. 

Additionally, it has passed tests according to the strict US military standards MIL-STD-810G (transit drop test), to offer you tough and durable protection from the accidents of daily life.

The Armor A30 features a slim hexagonal design that covers the surface of the PHD. This design helps in protecting it from scratches that occur naturally from regular use.

With USB 3.0 interface (also referred to as USB 3.1 Gen 1 / 3.2 Gen 1), the Armor A30 provides fast read and write speeds.

Up to 5Gbps reduces the time required to process or transfer large files, including HD graphics and videos, to get the job done faster so you can move on to the next project.

The disk was purchased on May 22, 2020. So far, I have been using it with USB 2.0 connections and it is fully compatible as stated in its specifications.

I exclusively use it on Linux systems, specifically Xubuntu & Kubuntu 18.04 & 20.04, and it is also fully compatible with automatic plug & play recognition.

The disk being used is a Seagate and it has the major flaw of automatically shutting down if left idle for 5 minutes. They have not set a longer waiting time and after exchanging emails with Silicon Power, they responded that this cannot be changed. Additionally, I did not find any software from Seagate itself that states compatibility with this specific model in order to disable this automation. This is why I am not giving the disk 5 stars. The continuous spindowns & spinups will unfortunately wear it out much sooner.

Very slow in data transfer. You need to have a lot of patience... I wouldn't recommend him in the era we live in where speed plays an important role. The use I make is simple. I only take pictures inside and it is very slow.

    Unacceptable disk. It connects whenever it wants and we're talking about a connection to a proper USB 3 port that provides power, not to an old hub etc. In the end, it broke after a few months and minimal use. Why have WD, Seagate, and Samsung never failed me? Stay away

    This review is about the colour: Black

    Terrible disk. Supposedly it's military grade but if they can't do the most basic thing well, which is to CONNECT for data transfer, then what's the point of build quality? It only connects when it feels like it, and even if it does connect, it disconnects after 5 minutes; as for file transfer, forget it, the folder you're trying to copy data to will be corrupted because the connection will be interrupted in between. Awful. Fortunately, it's no longer available on Skroutz

    He is very durable. It hasn't fallen down on me but it shows in its materials. Furthermore, its specifications mention that it has passed the drop test. It quickly transfers files. I use it at work and we gradually fill it up, safely. It doesn't disconnect. Its design is extremely elegant.

    This review is about the colour: Black

    This specific disk proves to be vfm.
    Durability: Within the first semester, it fell from a height of 1 meter three times while in operation, without noticing anything.
    Speed: Connected to a USB 3.0 port, it has a stable speed of 100Mb/s.
    Temperature: No complaints, the disk has never increased its temperature.
