The volume of confidential data on our computers grows so quickly, so the demand for secure storage like LaCie’s d2 SAFE is inevitable. The d2 SAFE is ideal for guarding top secret files or intellectual property, and is particularly useful for small teams working on confidential projects. Not only is the d2 SAFE extremely well designed and manufactured, but it’s relatively inexpensive and is one of the few encrypted hard drives suitable for both Macs and PCs. It also performs well against other encrypted portable hard drives. The d2 SAFE’s one downside is that it doesn’t automatically de-authenticate the drive after a period of time - such as when a user has gone home for the day but failed to lock the drive. We’d like to see some sort of timeout option added here. Otherwise, the drive is sound for home or small-business use.
