Adata Unveils Tough SH14 External Hard Drive

Adata's latest SH14 USB 3.0 external hard drive is one of the most chic styled ruggedized hard drives around. Stylish yet tough is right. The SH14 will protect your darkest secretes and most important personal information safe and sound under a layer of silicone that also makes it water resistant in the IPX4 class rating, not the most common materials used in external hard drives. It's also shock-resistant and impact absorbing in order to protect your data from those nasty falls. The SH14 comes in a few different storage capacities ranging from 500GB, 750GB and 1TB models in a 2.5" 5400RPM form factor. Adata's SH14 external drives will be available soon in black and red. Prices are yet to be announced.

Tech21 Impact Folio, The Most Protective iPad 2 Slim Folio Around?

You might recall Tech21 from their impressive shock absorbing iBand bumper, now called the Impact Band, first made for the iPhone 3G/S. Since then, Tech21 has went under the radar for unknown reasons, but now they're back in full swing with brand spanking new cases for the iPad 2 that utilize the D3O technology which has made the company famous for its extreme impact protection capabilities. The company's latest iPad 2 cases include the Impact Folio and Impact Folio Leather. The two are merely the same except for different materials used like Apple has done with its Smart Cover offerings. 

Tech21's Impact Folio for the iPad 2 is a minimalistic, slim folio offering full protection with stand and typing functions and is available in 6 vibrant colors. Slimness and vibrant colors aren't the things that make this iPad 2 folio unique, it's the D3O material that is integrated into the Impact Folio that can absorb shock and impacts in case of a drop. If this is any indication to what we saw Tech21's iBand can do, I'm sold. Tech21 hasn't posted any prices or availability at this time.

Griffin's Military-Duty Survivor Case Now Protects The iPad 2

Griffin has finally released the Survivor case for the iPad 2 adding Military Grade toughness to protect your iPad 2 from mother natures most dangerous conditions a gadget like the iPad 2 should never be exposed to like rain, dirt, sand and other environmental conditions. The Survivor case for the iPad 2 is built with a shatter-resistant polycarbonate inner frame with a built-in screen protector wrapped in a rugged, shock and vibration absorbing silicone complete with built-in hinged port plugs. We reviewed Griffin's Survivor case for the iPhone 4 a while back, and it looks like this will be one heck of a protective case for the iPad 2. It also looks like Griffin listened to the very few drawbacks the first Survivor case had with the hinged port plugs now having a place to clip on so that they don't get in the way while opened. 

The Survivor case for the iPad 2 includes a multi-position workstand that clip on providing landscape viewing and a typing angle. It's available now in black and pink for $79.99.

Life Proof iPhone 4 Case

 

The LifeProof iPhone 4 case is the thinnest proof-everything case you can get right now. Like Griffin's Survivor case, the LifeProof case meets military standards and protects your iPhone 4 against water, dirt, snow and shock. Unlike Griffin's Survivor case, the LifeProof case is actually water-proof and not just water-resistant. This means that with the LifeProof case you can take a shower with your iPhone 4 and even dive underwater up to a depth of 6.6ft (2 meters). This case is very impressive especially because of how thin it is, only adding 1.5mm of "bulk" to your iPhone 4. All of these specs sound really good making the LifeProof case the ultimate iPhone 4 case, at least until we can get our hands on one to review and test out. 

The LifeProof iPhone 4 case is now avilable to pre-order for $69.95, most likely in black only. Hit the source link for more.
