Sci-Fi-Inspired Hard Drives

These SSD Concepts by Alex Casabò Draw Inspiration from Star Wars

— January 25, 2021 — Tech
These SSD concepts have been designed by Alex Casabò as a range of external technology products that call to mind science fiction franchises in a bid to help inspire intrigue and wonder amongst users. The solid-state drives (SSDs) have a cyberpunk aesthetic that is inspired by the designer's love for sci-fi sagas like Star Wars and look like something a main character might be carrying with them on an important mission. This is further enhanced thanks to the three models within the collection that hold a whopping 16TB, 32TB or 64TB of data with color finishes of orange, tree and blue, respectively.

The SSD concepts maintain a see-through exterior design to make their internal components visible and enhance their sci-fi-inspired aesthetic.
