Key Features
BUS Powered
Indicates whether the device receives its power supply through a bus connection such as USB, eSATA, or another standard interface. A value of "Yes" means the product can be powered directly from the bus port, while "No" indicates it requires an external power source.
USB
Card reader integrated
Indicates whether the device includes a built‑in card reader that can read removable memory cards such as SD, microSD, MMC or similar formats.
No
Certification
A list of official certifications or compliance marks that the product has received from regulatory bodies, safety organizations, or industry standards groups. Each entry represents a distinct certification such as CE, FCC, RoHS, UL, or WEEE, and may include additional details like version numbers or specific test reports.
FCC / CE
Colour
The colour or combination of colours that a product is available in, expressed as common names such as "Black", "Silver" or comma‑separated lists like "Black, White". It indicates the visual appearance of the item for consumers.
Black
eSATA
Indicates whether the device includes one or more eSATA (external SATA) ports for connecting external storage devices. The value is a simple yes/no: "Yes" means at least one eSATA port is present, while "No" indicates none.
No
Ethernet LAN
Indicates whether the product includes an Ethernet LAN interface for wired network connectivity, allowing data transmission over RJ‑45 or compatible cables.
No
Fingerprint reader
Indicates whether the device includes a built‑in fingerprint reader for biometric authentication. A value of "Yes" means the device has a functional fingerprint reader; "No" indicates it does not.
Yes
FireWire 400
Indicates whether the product has any FireWire (IEEE 1394) ports available for connecting compatible devices, specifically at the 400 Mbps speed.
No
FireWire 800
Indicates whether the product has any FireWire (IEEE 1394) ports available for connecting compatible devices.
No
HDD Capacity
The total amount of digital storage that an internal hard drive can hold, expressed as a numeric value with an appropriate unit such as GB, MB, or TB. This attribute helps users understand how much data the device’s built‑in hard drive can store and compare storage options across products.
1000 GB
HDD speed
The number of revolutions per minute (RPM) at which a hard‑disk drive’s spindle turns, indicating the drive’s data access performance and endurance characteristics.
5400 RPM
Maximum data transfer rate
The highest theoretical speed at which a device can send or receive data, expressed in bits per second (bps) or its multiples such as kbps, mbps, gbps, etc. This value represents the upper bound of throughput under optimal conditions and is useful for comparing performance across devices and interfaces.
5000 Mbit/s
Operating shock 300 G
Security algorithms
A list of cryptographic and authentication methods that a device can use for secure communication or data protection. Each entry represents a distinct algorithm or protocol, such as encryption ciphers (e.g., AES, WEP), authentication mechanisms (e.g., RADIUS, WPA‑PSK), or network security protocols (e.g., HTTPS, SSL/TLS). The values are typically separated by commas and may include both technical identifiers and consumer‑friendly labels.
256-bit AES
Storage drive buffer size
The amount of temporary memory that a hard drive can hold before transferring data to the host system. Expressed as a digital capacity (e.g., kilobytes, megabytes). This attribute helps users understand how quickly a drive can process read/write operations and is useful when comparing performance across drives.
8 MB
Thunderbolt technology
Indicates whether the product includes a Thunderbolt interface, which allows high‑speed data transfer and power delivery in a single cable.
No
Type
The general category or style of the product, such as laptop, printer cartridge, or cooling fan. It helps buyers quickly identify the nature of the item and compare similar products.
HDD
USB connector
The physical interface of the main USB port on a device, such as USB‑A, USB‑B, USB‑C, Micro‑USB or Mini‑USB. It indicates the shape and electrical characteristics that determine compatibility with cables, adapters and peripherals.
USB Type-A
USB required Yes
