PIN access keeps security on the drive

Enter your own 7–15-digit PIN on the integrated keypad to unlock the drive. Because authentication and encryption are handled by the device, you can use it without installing security software.

The drive uses 256-bit AES-XTS hardware encryption. It also has a dedicated secure microprocessor with physical protection mechanisms designed to defend against tampering and bypass attacks. A lock-out function helps counter automated attempts to access the drive.
