Fiction; easy to use and reliable

Awesome; easy to use and reliable. I bought two of these at once, SSD drives turned out to be even more compact than I thought. must get

Ideal for encryption on mobile platform X

Ideal for encryption on mobile platform X I bought an Apricorn Aegis padlock six weeks ago. I've used it almost daily on Mac OS (Sierra) and Windows platforms without any problems. This is a reliable product. While relatively expensive in terms of storage (480GB SSD), its encryption technology, X-platform features, and superior design make it a cost-effective component of my overall security and privacy needs.

Pros
  • Certified
Cons
  • Cable is shorter than other options

Works as advertised!

High performance for an encrypted drive. I'm getting transfer speeds of around 180MB/s. The form factor is also great. Much less than I expected.

Pros
  • Confident
Cons
  • Socket required

Very easy to set up and use

Super easy to set up and use. It turned out smaller than I thought. Maybe it's even too small, smaller than a mobile phone. It is quite portable and can easily be lost or stolen. Used on Mac and PC, no formatting required. Quickly. solid state.

Pros
  • Quality construction
Cons
  • There are some nuances

Excellent hard drive for protecting business data

Excellent hard drive for protecting business data. This particular model uses a SanDisk SD7SF6S256G1122 SSD. It heats up a bit for those who like it extra warm. Pros: Large portable size. Easy to setup/configure. Robust housing. Cons: Warms up to an average of 42°C. Room temperature 24°C

Pros
  • Acceptable
Cons
  • Quality
