ADATA SC740 2TB USB 3.2 Gen2 Portable SSD Review

Conclusion

The ADATA SC740 portable SSD is one of the few sealed portable SSDs that come with a built-in USB cable. It causes them to have improved durability and promise higher data protection. At the same time, ADATA is well-known for its cost-efficient solutions, allowing us to count on a well-performing product at a low price.

We experienced no issues with the ADATA SC740 during all our tests. The SSD had no compatibility issues, while the performance was slightly below the advertised maximum. Since it utilizes a USB 3.2 interface, it should be compatible with most popular devices available on the market, including various computers, gaming consoles, smartphones, tablets, and other devices.

Since the SC740 is a new product, it’s still hard to find it in online stores. Amazon Canada lists it for approximately $350. It’s quite a high price, but Amazon is well-known for charging premium prices for some products, especially for those that have recently been released. I recommend waiting for two or three weeks, as prices should be highly competitive for everything this SSD has to offer.
The SC740 is covered by a five-year warranty, which demonstrates ADATA’s confidence in the quality of its product.

Final words:

Although the SC740 isn’t the fastest portable SSD, it is a well-balanced product and offers respectable performance. Additionally, we can expect improved durability and a compact design with a built-in USB-C cable. I’m sure those users who search for a daily storage companion will be satisfied with the ADATA SC740.
