Virtually indestructible
The HD830’s tough aluminum exterior is capable of surviving nasty drops and blunt force, and can also handle 3,000kg of downward pressure, roughly equivalent to the combined weight of fifty average-sized people. The HD830 also meets the U.S. Military’s MIL-STD-810G 516.6 standard and can survive falls from up to 1.22 meters. A three-layer construction provides protection inside and outside, including an outer silicone casing that comes in red or blue, shock-absorbing buffer, and cushioned mounting that holds the drive in place.

Shock sensor protection
Lesser external drives continue to operate when dropped, potentially resulting in errors and bad sectors. The HD830 features shock sensors that stop drive activity when an impact is detected, such as when accidentally dropped. Users will know the sensors are activated when the LED indicator blinks in red. When the threat has passed the LED indicator will light up in blue and resume normal operation.

Stylishly armored, plenty of storage capacity
The HD830’s aluminum exterior is crafted with a boldly grooved surface texture with a sandblasted finish and two sturdy side columns that give the HD830 the look of a true warrior. In an era of 4K Ultra HD videos and other high-resolution content, users can never have too much storage capacity. The HD830 has them covered with 2, 4 and 5TB of storage capacity.

As with all company’s external HDDs, the HD830 is backed by a three-year warranty.

Availability of the HD830 may vary by region.
