Taiwan Unveils Self-Destructing Storage Device to Guard Classified Files

Taiwanese electronics firm TeamGroup has unveiled a solid-state drive (SSD) built with a self-destruct feature to protect classified or sensitive data from falling into the wrong hands.

The device, called the P250Q-M80, offers fast performance with read speeds of up to 7,000 megabytes per second and write speeds up to 5,500 megabytes per second.
