Apricorn Aegis Padlock 2 TB USB 3.0 256-Bit AES XTS Hardware Encrypted Portable External Hard Drive (A25-3PL256-2000)

C'est un appareil plus cher que les autres disques dur du marché, mais au moins c'est fiable. J'en ai déjà un depuis plusieurs années et c'est un appareil extrêment résistant. C'est pour cela que j'en ai acheté un deuxième. Je le conseille vivement si vous ne souhaitez prendre aucun risque de perdre vos données.

No issue at all until now. Very good and happy.

This is a solid product from a great company. I’ve dealt directly with them before, and they stand behind their products. I own several of their devices, and they’ve all been reliable. This drive is a good size and easy to configure. I do recommend reading through all the setup steps first, then going back and following them as you go, since some steps are timed. The drive has a convenient spot to store the USB 3.0 cable and comes with a nice carry case. It also includes an extra cable that isn’t clearly labeled—this is for providing additional power if you’re using an older computer or a low-power USB hub. I haven’t needed to use it, even across multiple computers. Transfer speeds have been good, and overall performance has been very solid. If you need portable hardware-encrypted storage, this is definitely a great option. The company also offers other secure solutions if you need more features. Highly recommended.

I work with many confidential clients (lawyers, doctors, etc.) and when working on their computers I need a secure way to temporarily store their files. Being HIPAA compliant, I need to be certain that my clients' files are not accessible by anyone else. This fits the bill perfectly. It works fine, and had enough room to deal with several clients at one time. I did have one initial problem... the drive kept locking every 30 seconds (Windows 11) until I put it into lock override mode. I sent support an email and they responded within 24 hours with a registry fix, which solved the problem immediately. Five stars for customer support!

I had used several Apricorn Aegis a drives at work and decided to try one for personal use. Case is tough and doesn't feel like it will be damaged easily. Transfer speeds are good given it is a HDD inside. The cable could be longer but it is nice to be able to snap it into place around the device and not carry a separate cable if you don't want to. The one thing I usually have to do on most modern computers I have used it on is to adjust the power saving settings on the USB port it is plugged into. More often than not the power port would enter low power mode during a multi-hour transfer which would trip the auto-lock on the drive. While a nice security feature, and how it should be as it thinks you removed the drive, it could be frustrating to come back several hours later thinking the transfer should be done but it only got 5-10% through before it quit. After adjusting the power saving settings though the issue has not returned. These drives are great and I have recommended them to anyone else who needs a nice hardware encrypted drive that does not rely on software executables on the computer to unlock your drive.
