Score: 74/100
SanDisk Extreme
Score: 80/100Rankings
The SanDisk Extreme Portable SSD 1TB provides fast 1050 MB/s reads in a lightweight, IP65-rated package. Its performance trails newer ultra-fast SSDs and it lacks some premium durability features. Suited for creators needing a portable, water-resistant drive at a reasonable price.
The ADATA HD710 Pro 2 TB is a rugged 2.5-inch external HDD built to military-grade standards with IP6X dust-tight and IPX8 waterproof ratings. Its mechanical drive limits sequential speeds to around 130 MB/s and adds bulk compared with SSDs. Best suited for field workers and adventurers who prioritize durability over speed.
