General Information:

Inside This Tiny Key is a World Of Advanced Data Protection.

Software-free operation, cross-platform compatibility, USB 3.1 speed, increased capacities of up to 2TB, plus a host of highlevel security features that you'd never expect to find in a flashkey.

Military Grade 256-bit AES XTS Hardware Encryption:

All data on the Aegis Secure Key is encrypted on-the-fly with built-in 256-bit AES XTS.

Software-Free Design:

The Aegis Secure Key is ready to use right out of the box-no software, no drivers, no updates involved. It can even be utilized where no keyboard is present (e.g., cockpits, medical equipment, AV gear.) Completely cross-platform compatible, the Aegis Secure Key excels just about anywhere- PCs, MACs, Linux, or any OS with a powered USB port and a storage file system.

Configurable:

Create custom profiles and mass configure multiple Secure Keys at once with Apricorn's new Configurator / Powered Hub bundle.

Embedded Keypad:

All PIN entries and controls are performed on the keypad of the Aegis Secure Key. Since there is no host involvement in the key's authentication or operation, the risk of software hacking and key-logging is completely circumvented.

Super Tough, Inside and Out:

IP-68 certified as tough enough to go anywhere, the Aegis Secure Key's resilient design makes it perfect for travel. Its rugged, extruded aluminum casing is resistant to dust and water, and the keypad is wear-resistant. Inside, another layer of protection is added with the injection of a tough epoxy compound to prevent physical access to the key's encryption circuitry.

Independent User and Admin PINs:

The Aegis Secure Key can be configured with independent User and Admin PINs, making it an ideal device for corporate and government deployment. Should the User forget his or her PIN, the drive can still be unlocked with the Admin PIN and a new User PIN can be created.

One-Time Recovery PINs:

In the event that a User PIN is forgotten, up to 4 one-time use recovery PINs can be programmed to permit access to the drive's data.

Auto-Lock:

Locks automatically whenever it's unplugged from its powered USB port, and is further programmable to lock after a predetermined period of inactivity.

Drive Reset:

Allows the drive to be cleared and redeployed. Capable of generating an infinite number of randomly generated encryption keys, The Aegis Secure Key 3 can be reset as many times as desired.

Brute-Force Protection:

After a predetermined number (programmable; up to 20) of incorrect PIN entry attempts, the Aegis Secure Key will conclude that it is under Brute Force Attack and will respond by performing a crypto-erase - deleting the encryption key which will render all of the key's data useless.

Lock-Override Mode Feature:

Designated for specific cases in which the key needs to remain unlocked, e.g., during reboot, passing the key through a virtual machine, or other similar situations that would normally prompt the key to automatically lock. When enabled, Lock-Override Mode allows the key to remain unlocked through USB port re-enumeration and will not re-lock until USB power is interrupted.

    Everything You Want to Know About Hard Drives.

    Understanding hard drive basics will help you make better storage decisions.

    What's a Hard Drive Do?
    A hard drive is the hardware component that stores all of your digital content. Your documents, pictures, music, videos, programs, application preferences, and operating system represent digital content stored on a hard drive. Hard drives can be external or internal.

    Everything stored on a hard drive is measured in terms of its file size. Documents (text) are generally very small whereas pictures are large, music is even larger, and videos are by far the biggest. A hard drive determines the size of digital files in terms of megabytes (MB), gigabytes (GB), and terabytes (TB).

    There are 3 major versions of hard drive technologies. All of them have pros and cons and reasons for owning each versions;

    Standard Hard Drives

      This is an older technology but has continued to evolve in speed and reliability. Basically the technology is like a record player except the platters are metal instead of vinyl and the needle is magnetic allowing you to read, write and erase. The faster the hard drive spins, or RPM, the faster the read and write happens.
      Pros -- Cheapest per GB, very reliable and easily replaceable.
      Cons -- Much slower than newer technologies.

    Solid State or SSD Drives

      Solid State is basically a form of memory that can be written to and the data will stay saved even with the power off!
      Pros -- Very Fast read/write, no moving parts so it is quiet and in theory should last longer, less heat and energy.
      Cons -- Price per GB is more expensive than Standard HDD.

    M.2 Drives

      An M.2 SSD is a solid-state drive (SSD) that conforms to a computer industry specification written for internally mounted storage expansion cards of a small form factor. Shaped like a stick of gum. Most M.2 SSDs are 80 x 22mm (L x W), but they can be shorter or longer. You can tell what size an M.2 SSD is by reading the four or five-digit number in its name: the first two numbers are its width, while the others are its length (example: M.2 Type-2280).
      Pros -- Small for factor and SPEED,!!! M.2 card can use either the existing SATA 3.0 specifications and be restricted to the 600MB/s or it could instead elect to use PCI-Express that provides a bandwidth of 1GB/s under the current PCI-Express 3.0 standards.
      Cons -- Compatibility, since this is an internal storage device your motherboard must be newer and include the proper slot(s) to accommodate this storage technology.

    Hybrid Hard Drives

      A Hybrid Hard Drive may be the best of both worlds. In a Hybrid Drive you have both SSD and Platter or Standard Hard Drives included in one device. Typically you have a smaller SSD Drive coupled with a larger HDD. You have the low price per GB of an HDD and the speed of an SSD. This type of drive is a great choice for SMB workstations all the way to gaming machines.
      Pros -- Best overall value for the dollar as well as speed ratio.
      Cons -- Can add a level of complexity to some users as you basically have 2 drives in one and will have to be aware of what drive you will save data vs programs to.

    If you have an older Computer or notebook consider the SSD option as it will make your system feel new again with this faster storage technology.

    Internal vs. External or Portable Hard Drives

    External desktop hard drives are built using a drive and require an AC adapter plugged into a power outlet. These drives are a good choice for supplementing a desktop computer or plugging into a laptop's home base, and typically can extend your need to upgrade your hard drive or more importantly it can be used as a backup drive. As the saying goes "It's not if, but when something fails!" Please Backup...
