Description

SSD speed in a pocket-sized shell

With no moving parts inside, the SD620 copies large video files and photo libraries far faster than a classic hard drive: reads of up to 520 MB/s and writes of up to 460 MB/s. It weighs just 54.9 g, and its shock-absorbing silicone sheath has passed MIL-STD-810G 516.6 drop testing. No drivers are needed, and the drive supports hot-swapping, so you can plug it in and out while the computer is running.

Who this external SSD is for

Video makers and photographers moving large files who do not want to wait for copies; gamers keeping a game library next to their console; and phone or tablet owners who want to back up files straight from an Android device. It works with computers, tablets, phones and game consoles.

Questions & answers

Does the SD620 work with an Android phone?

The manufacturer lists Android 8.0 to 13.0 as supported. The phone or tablet itself must support external SSDs (OTG); otherwise direct backup from the device will not work.

Will I get 520 MB/s on any USB port?

Full speed needs a USB 3.2 Gen 2 (10 Gbit/s) port. The drive also works on slower USB ports, but copy speed is then limited by what the port can deliver.

Can I use the SD620 with a game console?

The manufacturer says the SD620 supports many of the latest game consoles and suits storing a game library. Specific console models are not named in the manufacturer data.
