In addition to the waterproof claims, ADATA claims the HD710 has been rigorously drop tested to military standards.
As its unlikely most users of us won’t be meeting any of those specifications at home, we decided to hurl it around a room for a few minutes. The worst case real world scenario is likely to be a ‘drop' from a couple of feet onto a hard surfaced floor.
See if it survives below: [yframe url='http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XiOE45MC1Lc']
Their claims are well founded, the drive survived our stress test !
Nice review Ian! You’re a natural 😉
The better man won, thats a great review. I entered as well, but congrats !
+1 for a good review..
There is a TOSHIBA MK505GSX internal HDD inside
Bad review too much about the rubber but not going there but not enough about the product. Not buying; bad site bad specs…. not helping.
I’ve bought this HD710 1TB yelow-black about three weeks ago – not too bad!!! Performance almost the same as Ian get, moreover recently I connect this HDD to TS-PDC3 adapter – I have to buy it because my mobo is quite old to have USB3.0&SATA3 ports, – so I easily obtain about 100-110MBps on CrystalMark/CrystalDiskMark… later I’ll test it on real loads: backups, copying, etc.
