ORICO, an industry-leading brand in data storage solutions, is proud to announce the launch of Dual-Bay Dock for both an M.2 SSD and a SATA HDD, featuring up to 30 TB hybrid storage and two-way data duplication. The dock greatly streamlines the workflow of professionals, enterprises, DIY PC assemble teams and more who need to move and manage extensive data.

Unlike another drive dock, this ORICO dock brings complete compatibility and multi-functionality. It supports an 8 TB M.2 SSD and a 22 TB HDD (total of 30 TB). For professionals, it effectively addresses the hardware upgrade from hard drives to solid-state drives while enabling the fast transfer of hot data to cold data, and provides users with great convenience in cross-protocol data backup.

ORICO, a leading innovator in data storage solutions, is proud to introduce a huge storage and expansion upgrade solution for Apple Mac users, called StudioLink. It's a powerful Apple desk setup for video creators, designers, filmmakers, professionals. 52 TB of combined SSD and HDD storage, a versatile array of high-performance inputs and outputs are designed to revolutionize creative workflow. Mac users, whether they are engaged in office work, graphic design, video audio editing and rendering, learning programming, music production, or video game development, often face challenges when it comes to storage capacity and
connectivity. For example, for a designer working with 4K materials at 30 FPS and 50 Mbps, one hour of footage can generate 22 GB of data.

It is calculated that every additional 256 GB upgrade costs over USD 200. The high storage cost and limited capacity options can deter many users from initial purchase decisions for larger capacities, and hinder productivity. ORICO StudioLink is a dream teammate for Mac devices to tackle the core challenges. It's a new generation of Apple storage expansion solutions that balances capacity, style, I/O ports, connectivity, and component size. Unleash the Mac's productivity.

Apricorn, the leading manufacturer of software-free, 256-bit AES XTS hardware-encrypted USB data storage devices, today announced the release of a 24 TB version of its Aegis Padlock DT and Padlock DT FIPS Desktop Drives. Continuing its position as an industry leader, Apricorn is the first to bring a 24 TB encrypted drive to market, delivering high performance and mass capacity to industries such as healthcare, financial services, education, and government, while ensuring the security of users' data. This is the third time Apricorn has brought to market the industry's largest capacity hardware encrypted USB drive, having previously done so in 20 TB and 22 TB sizes.

"Microsoft this month disclosed that the nation state attack it identified in January was still not fully contained. Since Microsoft is so deeply entrenched in just about every facet of our workflow, encrypting and storing data offline adds a layer of protection and resilience in the face of potential future attacks that could stem from breaches of this nature," said Kurt Markley, U.S. Managing Director at Apricorn. "The Aegis Padlock DT line is an ideal way for large organizations to protect vast amounts of data at rest in a highly secure and economic way."
