Encrypted portable SSD for secure data transport
The Apricorn Aegis Padlock 3.0 is a 256GB external solid-state drive with hardware-based 256-bit AES-XTS encryption. It unlocks via an onboard keypad using a personal PIN, requiring no software installation. A USB 3.0 interface delivers maximum read speeds of 160 MBps and write speeds of 145 MBps. The package includes a Y-auxiliary power cable and a travel pouch.
Suited for users needing hardware encryption
This drive suits professionals handling sensitive files who want plug-and-play security across Windows, macOS and Linux. The keypad works before the operating system loads, so the drive can be used to boot secure environments. Buyers who need higher capacity than 256GB or faster transfer rates than USB 3.0 provides should consider other options. The physical keypad adds bulk compared to software-only encrypted drives.
256GB capacity with USB 3.0 performance limits
The 256GB capacity comfortably holds operating-system images, encrypted project folders and large document archives. Sequential workloads run at up to 160 MBps read and 145 MBps write, which is sufficient for direct file editing and backups. Sustained heavy workloads or large batch transfers will saturate the USB 3.0 bus, so users moving multi-gigabyte video files daily will see the interface bottleneck before the SSD does.

이 상품에 대한 질문
What host connection does the Apricorn A25-3PL256-S256 need to reach its 160 MB/s read speed?
It requires a USB 3.0 port on the host. The drive connects through its built-in USB 3.0 interface and includes a Y-auxiliary power cable for ports that cannot supply enough current on their own.
Will the drive work on a computer that only has USB 2.0 ports?
Yes. The USB 3.0 interface is backward compatible with USB 2.0, so the drive will be recognised and usable, though transfer rates will be limited to the older standard's maximum.
How can I confirm the 256-bit AES-XTS encryption is active after I set my PIN?
Once a PIN is created, the drive locks automatically when power is removed. Reconnect it and the keypad will demand the PIN before the operating system sees any volumes, proving the hardware encryption is engaged.
