ADATA HV620S 2.5" USB 3.2 Gen 1 Portable Hard Drive - White
The ADATA HV620S Portable Hard Drive is a 2.5-inch external hard drive aimed at commuters, students and professionals who need reliable on-the-go storage without the bulk. At just 11.5mm thick, it slips into any bag without adding noticeable weight, while its USB 3.2 Gen1 interface keeps transfers moving at up to 5Gbps.
Why this product
11.5mm slim profile fits anywhere
At only 11.5mm thick, it slides easily into a briefcase, backpack or jacket pocket without the bulk of conventional external drives.
USB 3.2 Gen1 for fast transfers
The USB 3.2 Gen1 interface delivers up to 5Gbps bandwidth, and it remains backward compatible with USB 2.0 connections.
256-bit AES encryption support
Compatible with 256-bit AES encryption so sensitive files can be protected without needing a separate security device.
Scratch-resistant raised-lip design
A raised lip around the edge guards the mirror-finish surface from scratches when the drive is set down flat.
LED indicator tracks transfer status
A built-in LED lets you see at a glance whether data is actively being transferred, so you know when it is safe to unplug.
3-year limited warranty included
ADATA backs it with a 3-year limited warranty, providing a reasonable coverage period for everyday portable storage.

Best for
- Commuters and travellers who need large-capacity storage that fits in any bag — the 11.5mm thickness and 152g weight keep it genuinely pocketable.
- Windows-first users who want plug-and-play convenience without any setup steps on supported Windows versions.
- Security-conscious users who want hardware-level 256-bit AES encryption support without buying a separate encrypted drive.
- Budget-aware buyers looking for a high-capacity portable drive in a slim form factor with a 3-year warranty.
Trade-offs
- Speed-critical workflows such as video editing or large database transfers: at 5400 RPM this is a spinning-platter HDD, not an SSD, and sequential speeds reflect that.
- Mac users who need immediate use — reformatting is required before the drive works correctly on macOS, which adds a setup step.
- Users on older USB 2.0 systems without a Y-cable — the drive may not receive enough power from a single USB 2.0 port and requires a Y-cable for reliable operation.
- Drop or shock-prone environments — as a spinning-platter hard drive it carries the inherent vulnerability to physical shock that any HDD does, unlike a solid-state alternative.
The ultra-portable HV620S packs up to 4TB of external storage in a drive that's only 11.5mm thick. The design also shines with a mirror-like gloss, simple but elegant and fitting for dependable, go-anywhere storage that runs via fast USB 3.2. For all your content and with nearly universal device compatibility, the HV620S embodies smart design that increases capacity and performance while reducing physical space requirements.
The HV620S takes the proven performance and reliability of our existing 2.5" external hard drives and re-defines them. At only 11.5mm in profile, it's super-slim for sleek elegance and superior portability, fitting easily in any briefcase or backpack. From meeting rooms to treks in nature, the HV620S never gets in the way and always adds a touch of style to your storage.
The sleek lines and reflective, smooth surface of the HV620S highlights its thin and elegant overall appearance. It is ideal for those who wish to maintain an aura of professionalism, or show off their technical savvy.
A raised lip on the edge of the drive protects the surface from scratching when the drive is laid flat.
