The SanDisk Desk Drive is a desktop SSD backup solution with flash storage technology and a capacity of 8 TB, whose aesthetics are reminiscent of home accessories. The shape of the device is slightly tapered towards the top and combines gentle curves at the bottom with precise lines at the top. The lower part of the housing is made of double-injected plastic so that there are no visible gaps between it and the coloured ring in the middle. A subtle textural contrast between the housing’s elements emphasises the hard drive’s elegant appearance.
Statement by the Jury
The SanDisk Desk Drive impresses with a design that shows great attention to detail thanks to the skilful use of subtle contrasts.
