Slim Specs Table

Beyond IP68: Waterproof to 2 Metres

The HD710 Pro exceeds standard IP68 certification, tested for 60 minutes in 2 metres of water. This military-grade protection means your data stays safe whether you’re caught in a downpour or accidentally drop it in shallow water. The triple-layer construction provides total dust-tight protection, making it ideal for outdoor use where environmental hazards are common.

Military-Grade Shock Protection

Built to US Army MIL-STD-810G 516.6 standards, the HD710 Pro survives drops from 1.5 metres without data loss. The three-layer design combines tough silicone, a shock-absorbing buffer, and a rigid plastic shell to protect against impacts, vibrations, and drops. This level of protection is essential for field workers, photographers, and anyone who needs reliable storage in demanding conditions.

Smart Protection Technology

Unlike standard drives that continue operating during shocks, the HD710 Pro features intelligent shock sensors that immediately halt drive activity when impact is detected. This prevents data corruption and bad sectors. Once vibrations cease, normal operation resumes automatically, and clear LED indicators keep you informed of drive status throughout.

Universal Compatibility

The HD710 Pro works seamlessly across Windows, macOS, and Linux operating systems without requiring additional software. It supports a wide range of Windows versions from XP through Windows 10, plus macOS from Snow Leopard to Sierra. The plug-and-play functionality means you can connect it to virtually any computer and start transferring files immediately.
