Solid State is a practice in crafting desire and a contradiction to the utilitarian industry standards for portable hard drives. The profile is entirely symmetrical in all axis' with only a USB interface carved out.


Absent from all logos and markings, Solid State uses its materiality and finish to communicate luxury and desirability. Machined from a solid block of aluminum and coated in a high gloss PVD finish, the replaceable 2230 solid state drive inside remains enclosed in a shell of solid material indefinitely.
