Biometric Access &

Hardware Encryption

d2 Design by Neil Poulton

The Highest Level of Security

The d2 SAFE is triple-protected by biometric access,
AES hardware encryption, and a chain lock port** for
securing to your desktop. The LaCie SAFE hard drive family
provides ultra-secure and convenient data access control
via fingerprint recognition. The d2 SAFE with 128-bit AES
hardware encryption offers the highest security level of
data protection – files are automatically encoded on the
hard drive without performance compromise. The U.S.
Government (NSA) announced in 2003 that AES is secure
enough to protect classified information up to the TOP
SECRET level.

As Easy As Unlock, Access, Lock

Simply touch the sensor on top of the d2 SAFE to lock it
when you go away from your desk for a break or meeting
and swipe it again to unlock it when you return. Perfect
for any professional who needs to protect private files,
it’s amazingly easy to use yet provides maximum security.
Since it allows up to 5 different user profiles, the d2
SAFE is the ideal secure hard drive for teams working on
confidential group projects.

High Performance Hard Drive

Compatible with both Windows® and Mac® operating
systems, the d2 SAFE is a truly universal Triple Interface
(FireWire 800, FireWire 400 and USB 2.0) storage
solution. This is particularly helpful when a group of users
with different interfaces and operating systems are working
together. In addition, when connected via FireWire 800,
it provides fast speeds of up to 64MB/s sustained transfer
rate and up to 800Mbits/s (100MB/s) interface transfer
rate – making it one of the highest performing totally
secure hard drives available.

Data-Vault For Professionals

Data theft and industrial spying are becoming a real
threat and a growing concern in the digital age. Whether
you are an executive, a graphic designer or musician, you
want complete control over who sees your projects and
when. But if you save them to an ordinary hard drive, what
intellectual property protection do you have? Ideal for
highly confidential professional applications such as video
projects, industrial design and music production, the d2
SAFE guards your original creations from getting into the
wrong hands.
