Seagate Black Armor 160GB Portable Hard Drive

Seagate Secure hardware-based full-disc encryption technology

Product Information

The BlackArmor portable hard drive is the always encrypted, government-grade, secure portable storage solution designed for carrying your sensitive business and personal data with you. Featuring hardware-based full-disc encryption technology, it not only prohibits access to your data without the password, but eliminates tedious manual security procedures that are required in other technologies. When its USB cable is removed from the computer, the drive automatically locks. Not even a professional data recovery service can access or restore your data without the correct password. Plus, should you choose, permanent deletion of the encryption key allows for secure repurposing of the drive.
