Buffalo 4TB DriveStation Axis Velocity USB 3.1 Gen 1 External Desktop Hard Drive

The Buffalo HD-LX4.0TU3 is a 4TB desktop hard drive that delivers storage that is both quick and dependable for home offices, creative studios, and small businesses. Its USB 3.1 Gen 1 connection lets you plug in and start transferring files right away. Inside the enclosure, a 7200 RPM SATA mechanism keeps data moving at a pace that comfortably handles large media libraries, project archives, and scheduled backups.

Hardware-based AES 256-bit encryption safeguards your documents without adding setup complexity or reducing performance. This level of protection is valuable for professionals who store client material, businesses that archive financial records, and families who want to keep personal photos out of unwanted hands.

A fanless design keeps the drive quiet, making it suitable for shared workspaces or living rooms where background noise can be distracting. Buffalo shaped the housing to channel heat away from the disk, maintaining safe operating temperatures even during long backup sessions or continuous media playback.

Getting started is straightforward: connect the USB cable, format the drive for your operating system if needed, and begin saving files. Use it as primary storage for a desktop workstation, as an external archive that rotates with a Buffalo TeraStation NAS for offsite protection, or as a media library that plugs directly into a smart TV. Whatever the task, the HD-LX4.0TU3 offers reliable capacity without fuss.
