ADATA SD700 256GB Yellow Gen1 External Solid State Drive (SSD)

The ADATA SD700 256GB Yellow is a rugged external solid-state drive engineered for users who need dependable portable storage in demanding environments. Unlike conventional external drives, the SD700 is rated to the IEC IP68 standard, meaning it is fully dust-tight and can survive submersion in up to 1.5 metres of water for 60 minutes. It also meets MIL-STD-810G 516.6 shock requirements, giving you an additional layer of confidence against accidental drops and impacts. Powered by 3D TLC NAND Flash and connected via a USB 3.2 Gen 1 interface, the SD700 delivers sequential read speeds of up to 440 MB/s and sequential write speeds of up to 430 MB/s. That translates to noticeably faster file transfers compared to traditional mechanical external drives, making it a practical choice for photographers, videographers, and anyone moving large files on the go. At 75 g and just 83.5 × 83.5 × 13.9 mm, the SD700 is light enough to slip into a jacket pocket without a second thought. It operates silently and runs cool thanks to the absence of moving parts, which also contributes to its low power draw of DC 5 V at 900 mA — no external power adapter required. Cross-platform compatibility is broad: the drive works with Windows XP through Windows 10, Mac OS X 10.6 or later, Linux Kernel 2.6 or later, and Android 5.0 or later. The package includes a USB 3.2 Gen 1 cable and a Quick Start Guide, so you can begin transferring data straight out of the box. ADATA backs the SD700 with a 3-year warranty.
