The digital world is constantly demanding more performance from our hardware, but external storage has a crippling weakness: heat. High-speed Portable Solid State Drives (PSSDs) often reach temperatures that force them to throttle, cutting transfer speeds in half just when you need them most. Sharge Tech recognized this critical bottleneck and created the Disk Pro, the world's first portable SSD with an integrated active cooling system that is also a comprehensive multi-port hub. Now live on Kickstarter, the Disk Pro is built for content creators, gamers, and mobile professionals who need stable, high-speed data transfer and expanded connectivity in one compact, cyberpunk-styled device.
Project Overview
Name and Creator: Disk Pro by Sharge Tech.
What It Is: The Disk Pro is a fusion device that serves as a high-capacity, actively cooled Portable Solid State Drive (PSSD) and a 5-port multi-hub. It is designed to maintain maximum 10Gbps transfer speeds by aggressively managing heat, while simultaneously expanding the connectivity of devices like laptops, tablets, and handheld consoles.
Key Features
Active Cooling System (Ice-storm Cooler): The primary feature, the Disk Pro utilizes an integrated fan with two modes: Turbo Mode (10,000 RPM) for maximum performance during sustained transfers and Auto Mode (up to 7,000 RPM), which intelligently activates based on the internal SSD temperature. This system keeps the drive operating around 50∘C, preventing thermal throttling.
High-Performance Storage: Features up to 4TB of built-in storage with a swift 10 Gbps transfer rate, ensuring large files and high-resolution video (like 8K footage) can be moved quickly and stably.
Integrated 5-Port Hub: Functions as a mobile docking station, providing critical ports including HDMI 2.1 (supporting 4K/144Hz or 8K/30Hz video output), a USB-C port for charging and data, and two USB-A ports for peripherals.
Magnetic Attachment: The device incorporates a magnet system that allows it to securely snap onto the back of compatible devices, such as smartphones, using a magnetic ring (MagSafe/Qi2-style compatible).
Versatile Power Management: The USB-C port supports up to 100W power input and up to 80W passthrough power output, allowing it to charge a connected laptop or handheld console while in use.
Rewards
Early Bird Disk Pro 1TB (Starts at $189): A limited-quantity offer for the 1TB model at a substantial discount.
The Pro 2TB Package (Starts at $289): The standard reward for the 2TB capacity.
The Ultimate 4TB Kit (Starts at $469): The highest storage capacity option, perfect for professional video editors and massive game libraries.
The Idea
Concept: The core idea behind the Disk Pro is to eliminate the compromise between portability, performance, and connectivity. Sharge Tech engineered the device to deliver the speed of a high-end PSSD while providing the thermal stability usually reserved for desktop drives, all within a credit-card sized form factor that also serves as an essential peripheral hub.
Inspiration: Inspired by the real-world thermal throttling issues faced by users who work with massive files or run games directly from external drives, the creators aimed to produce an all-in-one solution that integrates an active cooling fan—a feature unprecedented in this class of device—to ensure sustained peak performance.
