ADATA Technology has introduced the SR800 Magnetic Power Bank SSD, a dual-function device that combines an external solid-state drive with a portable power bank. Marketed as an all-in-one solution for content creators who rely heavily on smartphones for filming and editing, the product aims to simplify on-the-go workflows by integrating both power and storage into a single compact unit.
The SR800 features a modular magnetic design that allows the SSD and power bank to attach securely via a grooved backplate. This configuration is intended to address a common challenge among mobile creators: the limitation of having only one port on most smartphones, which often forces users to choose between charging their device and offloading footage.
Key Specifications and Features
- Storage: Offers up to 2TB of capacity with read/write speeds up to 2,000MB/s using the USB 3.2 Gen 2×2 interface.
- Power Bank: Includes a 5,000mAh battery supporting 20W wired fast charging via USB-C and 15W magnetic wireless charging.
- Design: Incorporates a hidden kickstand for hands-free viewing and supports direct recording of high-resolution video, including 4K and ProRes formats, while simultaneously charging the smartphone wirelessly.
The device eliminates the need for separate dongles, hubs, or external mounts, which are often required when using conventional expansion accessories. According to the company, this integration allows videographers and photographers to maintain recording quality without interruption, effectively turning a smartphone into a more capable mobile workstation.
Designed for Content Workflows
By allowing continuous recording to the external SSD while wirelessly charging the phone, the SR800 seeks to overcome storage and battery constraints that commonly affect creators during long shoots. The product also includes multiple circuit protection mechanisms, which ADATA states have undergone rigorous testing to ensure safety during use.
The SR800 is expected to begin availability in global markets in the coming weeks. Pricing has not yet been disclosed.
