Product Description
This BUSlink 2-Bay RAID 0 drive supports large
capacity and USB 3.2 Gen 2/eSATA interface. It supports RAID 0 striping
(no backup). Removable HDD trays support replacement of drives. HDD
intelligent sleep function is supported. Cooling fan maintain safe
operating temperature. Skid proof and shockproof rubber feet mat ensure
safe operation.
Bilateral/Colateral keys selection
Dual keys encrypted external hard drive safeguards and protect
classified information when they are too important to be left in the
hand of one individual. To gain access to the drive, authentication will
be based on two unique Cipherkeys. In bilateral mode, both keys must be
plugged in and remained plugged in to authenticate. In colateral mode,
both key can be plugged in and removed to authenticate the drive. It is
suitable for group settings where a manager is in control of the keys
that must be removed after authentication. The drive remained
authenticated until powered off.
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.
