Computers that will feature Fujitsu’s 2.5-inch 320GB HDD with 256-bit Advanced Encryption Standard will have the maximum hardware protection available on the market.
The 256-bit Advanced Encryption Standard is the fastest hard drive data encryption technology providing the most secure erasing in less than a second.

This standard describes the direct encryption into the HDD’s processor chip which leads to more robust security and faster system performance compared with software-based encryption.
AES performs the encryption automatically when storing the data on the hard disk drive, decrypting it during reading.

As this process is not based on the computer’s memory, like in software-based encryption, the hard disk drive is more resistant to attacks without overheading the processor but optimizing the system performance.

Today Fujitsu introduced its advanced hard disk drive under the name MHZ2-CJ, a series consisting of 80GB, 120GB, 160GB, 250GB and 320GB storage capacities at a rotational speed of 7200 with S-ATA 3.0 Gb/s interface and 16MB buffer size.
The idle power consumption is of 1.80W and the average standby power consumption is of 0.13W.
Fujitsu MHZ2-CJ has a writing speed of 12.5 ms and 10.5 ms for reading, while the maximum data transfer rate is of 300MB/s.

Other features include 2.5 bels average acoustic level and 325G shock resistance, for the 9.5 x 70 x 100 mm hard drive at 115 grams.

Fujitsu Europe Limited will release its advanced product at the end of next month.
