Review: As described: new, defined storage amount, good health, works; - Although i bought this as a gift, i first plugged into XBox One. Then figured i should run CrystalDiskInfo to confirm specs. It had: 0 power on hours, a power on count of 2 (before connecting to Xbox, then PC for tests) & the described USB 3.0 capabilities & (5400) RPM spin speed. Health status was good. Unit was quiet and aesthetically pleasing. Friend needed for XBox One, and so far, has been working flawlessly. Previously, I've purchased one SiliconPower (MLC SSD) drive for my PC's OS drive. Had that drive for ~1 year and it works beautifully. I like the vast purchase options & "bang for your buck" as well as good quality/performance. Certainly recommend SiliconPower drives as of this review.
Review: The #1 brand to buy hard drivers - In the last 12 years, I have bought more than 5 hard drives from different brands non-one of them have satisfied me and give peace of mind to issuer the hard drive will not broken after multiple of use. However, one of my electrical engineering friends have recommended to me if you need to buy any hard drive from excellent brand buy one of Silicon Power products and see. In 2015, I was searching in desertcart for hard drive to replace one of my hard drives then I remembered my friend recommendation so I looked at all Silicon Power products and decided to buy Armor A30. For 3 years of using it was amazing product from the design, performance, quality, efficiently and the peace of mind. Now, when I searching for hard drive first thing come into my mind this brand and I recommend it to my family and my friend even to you whom searching for this product. Buy it and give a shot then you will decided as me that this brand is the number one for spot to search and buy hard drives and even more.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Silicon Power makes their own hard drives and cases, not filled with anything else.
*by D***. on April 17, 2025*

Silicon Power is a Taiwan-based manufacturer making their own hard drives and cases since 2003. There is no Seagate or WD or any other thing inside as some people have claimed. I own 6 different SP drives, an A30 from 2014, an A80 from 2015, an A85 from 2016 and 3 A60 drives from 2025. I use them for mostly archival storage, accessing the files to watch movies or view pictures every couple months or so. NONE have failed yet...I bought the 3 new hard drives this year because HDDs should only last 3-5 years or so. Mine have worked great for a decade and are still going. Also...I would recommend only buying HDDs from a dedicated big box store UNLESS you specifically buy MIL SPEC drop rated drives in protective cases. Delivery drivers have no idea what is inside the box and throw, kick, toss and otherwise smash your delicate drive. Big box stores get pallets and then put them out on the floor, almost never kicked. Shipped HDDs go through heat, cold and misuse before they get to you. I have security cameras and I promise each hard drive that was delivered was either tossed or dropped from at least waist or knee height at my door. I also bought at the same time, two LaCie rugged minis, neither of those drives survived the "delivery" process and had to be returned. All hard drives will fail...ALL... at some point, it's just the way the read/write medium coupled with mechanical stuff works. So what do we do? Well SSDs are fast and inherently more durable BUT they must stay plugged into a PC for 2+ hours every 6 months or so as they need to kind of "rewrite" data to to maintain the data they have. Also NAND memory types have different endurance levels. SLC has the highest endurance, while QLC has the lowest. About 99.9% don't even know what that is, which is fine. Just know that a quality SSD will last 5-10 years IF able to not be rewritten a bunch and access to a PC of some type. I feel for Archival "type" storage your best bet is a RUGGED HDD saved in a couple of locations along with cloud storage of some type ( the "Cloud" is just someone else's hard drives some where else) there are also DVD and Tape storage that really can last 50+ years just kinda pricey sometimes. In any case IF you are storing your data in one place DON'T, just don't. It will fail and paying for data recovery that may not work is just a frustrating waste of time and money. Almost every one star review is someone mad because their drive failed...(it 100% will fail) and they cant retrieve data reliably. Why would a big old drive company ever even offer data recovery or backup unless they know THEIR DRIVES WILL FAIL!! For most folks on a budget, buy multiple rugged HDDs. A side note Archive drives or SMR drives are for sure better but cost a bunch of cash and guess what? They will fail also. Second side note while not expressly proven, many times a smaller (1 or 2 TB) drive might last a bit better than a larger (4,5,6 etc TB) because to store more data they may use closer data storage and in many cases multiple disks adding to the mechanical complexity of the drive. Hope this helps!
