You can unlock this secure SSD with the touch of your smartphone

ZDNET reviews the Lexar TouchLock Portable SSD, a super-thin, lightweight drive that uses NFC via a smartphone for quick unlocking, features 128-bit AES hardware encryption and a MagSafe ring for iPhone attachment, and delivers reliable performance (up to 450Mbps write/420Mbps read) sufficient for 4K ProRes 60 fps; after app-based setup (iOS/Android), it functions like a standard SSD, includes a USB-C cable, USB-A adapter, and magnetic ring, runs cool thanks to a low-power controller, and is priced at $94 (500GB) and $143 (1TB), earning praise for ease of use, portability, and thermal management.
