Encrypted portable SSD for secure data
The Apricorn Aegis Padlock ASSD-3PL256-480F is a 480 GB external solid-state drive with hardware-based 256-bit AES encryption. It is designed for professionals who must protect sensitive files while working across PC and Mac platforms. The drive requires no software installation and unlocks via an onboard keypad.
USB 3.0 interface caps real-world throughput
The drive connects through a USB 3.0 host interface with a Y-auxiliary power cable included. Sequential reads reach 205 MB/s and writes reach 185 MB/s, so large transfers are limited by the bus rather than the internal flash. An 8 MB buffer helps smooth burst workloads within that ceiling.
Ruggedised chassis survives physical abuse
The enclosure is rated vibration resistant, shock resistant and crush resistant for field use. A travel pouch is supplied for additional protection during transport. Buyers who need internal 2.5-inch or M.2 form factors, or who require higher speeds than USB 3.0 allows, should look elsewhere.

Spørgsmål om denne vare
Which capacity of the Aegis Padlock SSD should I pick if I need 480 GB of encrypted storage?
The ASSD-3PL256-480F model provides exactly 480 GB of hardware-encrypted capacity, so it matches that requirement directly.
What do the 205 MB/s read and 185 MB/s write speeds mean when the drive is connected to my computer?
Those are the maximum sequential transfer rates the drive can sustain over USB 3.0; real-world speeds will vary with file sizes, system load and the host controller.
How does the USB 3.0 interface limit performance in practice?
USB 3.0 caps the theoretical bandwidth at 5 Gb/s, so the drive’s 205 MB/s read and 185 MB/s write ceilings are set by that interface rather than the internal SSD.
