SP/ Silicon Power releases the Armor A62 as its latest addition to its rugged portable hard drive series. The A62 comes in two models (S and L) and five capacities (from 1TB to 5TB), catering from modest needs up to the most storage hungry video editors. Despite its fashionable exterior, the A62 offers solid protection for safe data storage. The drive's housing has a ribbed surface structure that makes it resistant to scratches and smudges.

It has proven its shock-resistance in a military-standard free fall test (MIL-STD 810G, 1.22m) and is IPX4 water-resistant to prevent damage caused by spillages. Like its fellow Armor models, the silicon edges double as bump protection for the A62 and a handy carry/storage function for the included cable: Micro-B to Type-A for the A62S (1TB, 2TB) and Type-A to Type-A for the A62L (2TB-5TB).



All in all, function, great looks and safe data storage unite effortlessly in the new Armor A62.

Ha! SP and their deceiving product naming....
I can make an educated guess that it's based on the latest ASM1351 bridge, which is not a bad thing, but regardless of the internals I wouldn't test any freefalls on this thing.
