United States : INTEL SSD PRO 2500 Series launched [TendersInfo (India)]


(TendersInfo (India) Via Acquire Media NewsEdge) Intel has failed to offer many products which leverage its acquisition of McAfee (now called Intel Security).

However, that changes with the recent launch of the Intel SSD Pro 2500 Series.

This series of SSDs will operate with McAfee ePolicy Orchestrator to enable the automatic implementation of hardware-based 256-bit encryption on these drives in a similar way to what Endpoint Encryption has previously done.

As it sits on the hardware Intel claims no affect to the speed results from the on the fly encryption.




Users of Intel Setup and Configuration Software with vPro will even be able to monitor the health of deployed drive.


Intel corporate vice president and general manager of the Non-Volatile Memory Solutions Group, Rob Crooke, said : "The need to protect assets, keep an eye on the bottom line and ensure employees have the best tools is a challenge for IT departments. The Intel SSD Pro 2500 Series is a well-rounded solution to help balance those often competing needs. Adding the Pro 2500 Series to the Intel SSD Professional Family delivers a powerful storage solution to help businesses of all sizes meet their critical IT needs." Senior vice president and general manager, Endpoint Security, McAfee*, part of Intel Security, Candace Worley, added : "The Intel SSD Pro 2500 Series is the second-generation OPAL-based client storage solution that helps IT departments protect their users' data and also provides valuable features to reduce operational costs. The Pro 2500 Series is a perfect companion to our data protection solutions, managed by McAfee ePolicy Orchestrator*, all working in concert to provide IT departments with data security, management and control, wherever their endpoints may be."
