HP Secure Hard Disk FIPS 140-2

This HP B5L29A internal hard drive provides hardware-based AES encryption validated to the FIPS 140-2 standard for compatible LaserJet Enterprise and Managed printers. It protects data at rest inside the printer with a straightforward drop-in installation design. Automatic key provisioning and management tools simplify deployment across the printing network. The drive helps secure sensitive documents processed by the device.

Compatible printers and excluded users

This drive fits specific HP Color LaserJet Enterprise M553 and Managed M553 models including the dn, n, x, dnm and xm variants. It is not for users who need a Kensington lock adapter, as that accessory is not included with the internal version. Buyers requiring an EIO form-factor drive to preserve an expansion slot should look at the separate EIO model. It is also unsuitable for any non-HP printer or unsupported HP series.

FIPS 140-2 validated AES encryption

The defining specification is FIPS 140-2 validation of the cryptographic module protecting data at rest. Hardware-based AES encryption secures stored print jobs and confidential information without relying on software encryption. This certification meets U.S. and Canadian federal requirements for protecting sensitive data. The drive dimensions are 1.4 inches high, 5.4 inches wide and 3.0 inches long.
