I know that somewhere around 2010, external hard drives were in vogue. The problem was the jungle of cables through which you had to make room for the "brick" status of that stubborn HDD if you wanted to put your friend on a PC a game or a pirated movie in HD format. If we give a fast forward we meet, of course, with SSDs, which offer much faster read and write speeds.
External SSDs and cloud storage are kind of natural enemies. On the one hand, you have SMALLER bricks to carry with you. On the other hand, you have to honor your cloud storage subscriptions in cash, if you haven't opted for other more affordable options. But it seems that these problems will be related to the distant past.
Recently, I discovered the VAVA SSD Touch, a gadget that is supposed to be extremely reliable, practical and safe. It's also pretty good-looking, I'd say. I understand that it is the size of a pen drive, and the material is made of a completely recyclable aluminum. One of the key properties of this external SSD is the fingerprint sensor, which uses state-of-the-art technology to keep unwanted guests away from personal data.
Interface and storage
The VAVA SSD Touch uses the USB 3.1 (Gen2) interface and has a read speed of up to 540 MB / s and 480 MB / s for writing. At a manufacturer's calculation, these speeds can help, for example, transfer a 10 GB file in almost 20 seconds.
The device is optimized for various platforms, from laptops and PCs to phones, consoles, smart TVs or, why not, drones. The storage space is not inferior either, it can handle from 512 GB to 2 TB of data.
Security
The VAVA Portable SSD Touch has built-in 256-bit AES encryption technology, where the fingerprint sensor brings an extra layer of biometric security. The interesting part is that the sensor can hold up to 10 fingerprints belonging to family members, friends or co-workers.
Appearance, color and thermal control
The small device is made of 100% recyclable aluminum and has a silver color that gives it elegance and simplicity. Obviously, its dimensions are small, because, that being said, the strong essences are kept in small bottles.
In addition, the thermal control causes the aluminum, along with a layer of zinc alloy, to dissipate heat efficiently, to avoid the problem of overheating.
The VAVA SSD Touch is shock resistant, and the LED around the fingerprint sensor informs you about the use of the SSD. Red indicates an error, and blue indicates that a data transfer is taking place.
Compatibility and other tricks
As mentioned above, VAVA SSD Touch can be used with various devices: PC, Mac, iPad Pro, Android devices, consoles, cameras and drones. For this, the SSD comes bundled with USB DC and AC cables.
Another nice thing is to reduce the loading time for video games by up to 40%. It could be a great advantage for large games, designed to progressively load in-game portions through frequent loading screens.
At first glance, the VAVA SSD Touch looks like a powerful and elegant toy, which comes to the aid of any technology enthusiast who wants to store large packages of data offline, quickly and easily, with extra security. I was most attracted to the implementation of the fingerprint sensor, along with the sufficient storage capacity, I say. Definitely a gadget to consider.
