Super Talent Technology has just announced a new Toshiba co-branded UltraDrive DX solid state drive that offer two levels of security to prevent unauthorized data theft or loss.
As a first level of security the UltraDrive DX supports password protection with an encrypted password for blocking unauthorized access to the data stored on the SSD. As a second level of protection, the DX incorporates new hardware data randomization technology, which is enabled automatically with every write to the drive to prevent unauthorized copying of blocks of data. Both encrypted password protection and data randomization are standard features that do not affect performance.
The DX is a 2.5-inch drive that uses a SATA connection, and is specified to support sequential read speeds of up to 230 MB/sec and sequential write speeds of up to 180 MB/sec.
The UltraDrive DX is available in 64GB, 128GB, 256GB, and 512GB capacities for $219, $419, $719, and $1649 respectively.
