We are investigating reports that certain Samsung and Crucial (Micron) solid state drives (SSDs) featuring hardware encryption may be defective, with encryption that can easily be bypassed allowing the supposedly secure data on the drive to be accessed without a password. The models that may have defective self-encryption include the Samsung 840 EVO and 850 EVO internal SSDs, the Samsung T3 and T5 USB external drives, and the Crucial MX100, MX200 and MX300 internal SSDs.
If you or anyone you know purchased one of these SSDs or has a computer containing one of these drives, please contact Finkelstein Thompson LLP to discuss your legal rights. You can reach us by email at contact@finkelsteinthompson.com or by telephone toll-free at 1-877-337-1050.
