Overview of external 2.5 "HDD A-Data Nobility NH92 500GB

Most recently, I had the task and desire: to buy a mobile external HDD. Immediately, I note that I already have a WD My Book Essential Edition 500GB, but it is large, with a power supply unit - that is, not at all transportable. So I had an idea: why not use WD for backups, and for storing photos (I take pictures in RAW and a lot of o_O), films and other things, take a small, fast, beautiful screw. Seagate FreeAgent Go, Transcend and Prestigio were among the bidders. I chose them for a long time, felt them, read reviews, but unfortunately I did not choose anything suitable for me.

And yesterday I saw a new line of HDDs from a-data in the store. Honestly, I had heard little about them before :) Googled, but there was little information: a few reviews + news about the release of the same line of new hard drives. In general, I decided to take it (do not ask the reasons, I just liked the design). I want to present you a brief overview with a small test of this product Taiwanese =)
Included are the HDD itself, the Y usb cable and the case.

1 package.
Plain plastic packaging.


2. Case
On the sites they write that the leather case. I admit honestly - to the touch it does not cause a feeling in my skin. So the material is unknown.






3. Winchester itself






The size of the device is small. For comparison, photographed it next to the iPhone.


4. Speed ​​test


5. Price
The optimal price of this thing is $ 115-120. That is, at the cost of the screw is at the level of Transcend. For comparison: Seagate FreeAgent Go of the same volume costs about $ 130.

In general, the HDD impressions are very positive: a thin, beautiful aluminum device with good speed.
Of the shortcomings, I noted only one thing: near the name of the company, the aluminum cover is not very tight to the plastic: (This is a bit annoying. That is, the Taiwanese assembly is a little tinker :)

PS Review of iron writing for the first time. The reason is the lack of reviews of USB HDD data per se, which strained me a bit when I purchased it. I hope this information will be useful to you when choosing your data warehouse;)
