Designed to ensure no one besides you can access information stored within, this SSD employs several security features preventing unauthorized access on digital and physical levels.

Q: 2. Can this drive be formatted as 2 2T volumes, and if so how does that affect data transfer rate?

A: If using on a Mac, the answer is 1) Yes, you can format into multiple partitions and 2) Its possible that partitioning could lower performance when both partitions are being used simultaneously, meaning both volumes are either reading and or writing at the same time. This performance hit may not be much more than reading/writing to two different directories/folders on a single partition. It could also depend on how a particular file system stores data on the various OS's available to you.
