Secure portable storage for sensitive data
The Apricorn Aegis Fortress AFL3S500 is a 512 GB external SSD built for users who must keep confidential files protected while travelling. Its hardware-based 256-bit AES XTS encryption and onboard keypad authentication operate without any software installation. The drive is validated to FIPS 140-2 level 3, meeting NIST's highest tier for portable devices. It suits professionals handling regulated or proprietary information across multiple platforms.
Hardware encryption with keypad access
The single specification that determines suitability is the 100 percent hardware-based 256-bit AES XTS encryption combined with PIN entry on the physical keypad. All encryption occurs on the fly and keys remain encrypted at rest, so no host software or operating system support is required. This makes the drive compatible with Windows, Linux, Mac, Android, Chrome and embedded systems that only provide a powered USB port and a file system.
Sustained throughput over USB 3.0
Under continuous workloads the drive delivers ultra-fast transfer speeds through its USB 3.1 Gen 1 (3.0) interface without thermal throttling or software overhead. The rugged enclosure protects the encryption chipset and flash memory during extended use in harsh environments. Performance remains consistent because encryption and authentication are handled entirely by the onboard processor rather than the host CPU.

Küsimused selle toote kohta
How fast will the USB 3.0 interface actually move data on this drive?
The drive uses a USB 3.1 Gen 1 controller that runs at the USB 3.0 signalling rate of 5 Gbit/s, so real-world throughput is limited to the USB 3.0 ceiling rather than the newer 10 Gbit/s tier.
What encryption standard protects the 512 GB of storage?
All data is secured with 256-bit AES XTS encryption performed by a dedicated hardware chipset; no software is required and the keys never leave the drive.
Will the 6.12 cm wide enclosure fit in a standard laptop bag pocket?
At 6.12 cm wide, 2.6 cm high and weighing 4.4 g, the ruggedised case is small enough for a shirt pocket or a slim laptop sleeve compartment.
