Core details for your setup

PIN access keeps protection on the drive

Set a unique 7–15-digit PIN using the integrated keypad. The drive uses hardware encryption, so protection does not depend on encryption software installed on your computer. It also has a lock-out function and a dedicated secure microprocessor designed to resist tampering and bypass attempts.

A practical fit for mixed systems

The drive supports Windows, macOS, Linux, Android and server operating systems. It is plug and play, so you can connect it to a compatible USB port without installing drive software. The USB 3.2 Gen 1 interface supports transfer rates of up to 5,000 Mbit/s, while listed read and write speeds are up to 286 MB/s and 278 MB/s.
