Hardware-Encrypted USB Drive
The Apricorn Aegis Secure Key 3NX is an 8GB USB 3.0 flash drive with 256-bit AES XTS hardware encryption. It features an onboard keypad for PIN entry and requires no software or drivers to operate. The drive is FIPS 140-2 Level 3 validated and IP67 certified for dust and water resistance.
Suited For Offline Security Needs
This drive suits users who need portable, cross-platform storage with hardware-based authentication that works independently of the host operating system. It is not for buyers who want higher capacities beyond 8GB or those who require a drive without a physical keypad for automated or headless deployment scenarios.
Driver-Free Setup With Keypad Workflow
Installation is immediate: plug the drive into a USB 3.0 port and enter the Admin PIN via the onboard keypad to unlock. The drive then appears as a standard mass storage device on any OS. The main friction point is forgetting the Admin or User PINs, which renders the data inaccessible without a complete reset that erases all content.

Vragen over dit artikel
What type of USB port does my computer need for the ASK3-NX-8GB?
The drive uses a USB 3.0 connector and works with USB 3.1 Gen 1 ports. It is backward compatible with USB 2.0 ports, though transfer speeds will be limited to the older standard.
Will the hardware keypad on the Aegis Secure Key 3NX work if I plug it into an older USB 2.0 hub?
Yes, the onboard keypad draws power from the USB bus and functions independently of the host operating system, so it operates normally on USB 2.0 hubs or ports.
How can I verify the 256-bit AES XTS encryption is active after I set a PIN?
The drive remains locked until a valid PIN is entered on the keypad; a successful unlock lights the green indicator, confirming the hardware encryption engine is engaged and the volume is accessible.
