CipherShield 2-Bay RAID 1 supports RAID 1 mirrored for redundancy (RAID 0 striping also available). CipherShield Series prevents unauthorized access to your digital data. CipherShield design features a chip embedded in the access key which matches the AES encryption module on the controller board. The drive will automatically lock down its content once the key is unplugged, or power is shut off. And without the access key, data will not be seen or accessed in the event of theft or loss of the external drive. Data stored on the hard drive are safeguarded by hardware-based National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) certified industrial strength AES (Advanced Encryption standard) cryptographic engine. The advantage of hardware encryption over software encryption is that you need not be concerned about Trojans/viruses or software upgrades, which results in a decrease of total cost of ownership. Since CipherShield encrypts data independent of the operating system; removing the drive and connecting it directly to the SATA BUS will not defeat the encryption. Unit is bundled with two keys and registration is required for key duplication. System Requirement: Microsoft Windows 10, 8, 7, Vista, Server 2016, 2012, 2008, 2003 (XP and 2000 Server not supported), Mac OS X 10.4 or later with Intel Processor, Linux with GPT support. Package Content: CipherShield USB 3.0/eSATA 256-bit AES RAID 1 External Hard Drive, 2 Cipherkeys, USB 3.0 A to B and eSATA cables, Power adapter, and User manual. See more

Faster, easier to use, and provide a better security than software encryption. FDE (Full Disk Encryption) encrypt whole drive with real time encryption speed. RAID 1 mirroring for data redundancy (backup). Encryption key is on the removable hardware key; can be removed and stored away to prevent unauthorized access. NIST FIPS 140-2 compliant 256-bit AES hardware encryption.
