Key specifications at a glance

Hardware encryption for sensitive files

Encryption runs on the drive’s built-in cryptographic module, rather than relying on software on your computer. Password protection controls access, while 256-bit AES-XTS encryption safeguards stored files.

The module is FIPS 140-2 certified, and the drive also has FIPS 197 certification. Its tamper-resistant design helps protect the internal security chip against physical interference.

4TB capacity in a portable format

With 4TB of space, the drive can hold a substantial working archive or a large collection of business files. The 2.5-inch external format makes it suitable for moving data between supported computers.

Read speeds reach 120MB/s, while write speeds reach 100MB/s. These figures help set expectations when transferring large files or backing up data.

Connect to Windows and Mac computers

The drive supports Windows and Mac operating systems. It connects through USB 3.2 Gen 1 using a Micro-USB B socket.
