Essential specifications

PIN access keeps security straightforward

Enter your PIN on the integrated keypad to unlock the drive. The PIN can be 7–15 digits, and the design operates without drive-management software. This makes access simple while keeping the encryption hardware-based.

The drive also has a lock-out function and a tamper-resistant design. Its security certification is FIPS 140-2 Level 3, making it a considered choice for sensitive business files.

22TB for substantial file collections

With 22TB of capacity, this desktop HDD can hold large collections of documents, media and backups. Read speeds reach 225 MB/s, while write speeds reach 223 MB/s, so everyday transfers have a clear performance reference.

It connects over USB 3.2 Gen 1 and supports plug-and-play operation. The drive uses external power rather than drawing power from the USB connection.

Broad operating system support

The drive supports Windows, macOS, Linux, server operating systems and Android. Because it works without dedicated software, it can fit into varied USB-based setups across these platforms.
