Apricorn 2TB Aegis Fortress L3 - FIPS Validated, SSD USB 3.0 Hardware Encrypted Portable Drive

Great products, will order again when needed

Good: Construction of the device seems really strong. Buttons are firm, doesn't seem like it would wear down. Comes with a carrying case, and extra usb cable for type C.Bad: Never got to use the drive for intended purpose. Initial setup failed, password set was not recognized. After master reset, device would not function properly. I contacted manufacture support with detailed report of the issue, and yet to hear back. BIG FAIL. Waste of time and money. Sent back, and going to try out the Kingston IronKey Vault.

This is the best investment in any computer product I have mad i years (and I have made many). Easy to use, does what it says it does, more than meets my needs. As background, I am a college professor. I have FERPA protected data and also HIPA protected data. I would not trust either to any computer hard drive or cloud storage. This allows me to take it anywhere, knowing it is perfectly safe (make sure you have a backup somewhere just in case). I jo longer to take a computer with me. I can just plug his not computers in the classrooms. I love he read only setting, knowing that if I plug it into a classroom computer, nothing will happen to it even some duffus messed up the computer. I also run PortableApps off it, giving me secure browsing with all data written to this drive, it the computer. Perfect match. With the onboard unlocking, no keg loggers can get your password. Even if you’re not in the NSA, I highly recommend this for anyone in this day of age for file security and privacy.

Still getting familiar with it (almost half full now) but overall - appears very well made (solid) and very easy to use.Very happy with it. Bruce
