One of the standout features of the Aegis Secure Key 3NX is its robust 256-bit AES XTS encryption, which ensures that my data remains safe from prying eyes. It's a comforting thought knowing that even if I were to misplace this device, my information is still well-protected. Plus, the fact that it's FIPS 140-2 level 3 validated adds an extra layer of confidence in its security.
The onboard keypad is a game-changer for me. It allows me to set a PIN to access the device, making it virtually impossible for anyone to access my files without the correct code. This feature simplifies security without compromising on effectiveness. I no longer have to worry about complex password management or software vulnerabilities.
In terms of usability, it couldn't be easier. Just plug it in, enter your PIN, and you're good to go. It works seamlessly with my computer's USB 3.1 port, and there's no need for additional drivers or software. It's simple, straightforward, and gets the job done.
Overall, the Apricorn Aegis Secure Key 3NX is a fantastic investment for anyone looking to secure their data without diving into the complexities of encryption software. It offers top-notch security, ease of use, and the added benefit of improved temperature management. It's a practical and reliable solution for keeping your important files safe, and I highly recommend it to anyone in need of a secure USB flash drive.
The new version (USB 3.0), the NX, keys seem to be much more responsive than the old version; however, I do have a gripe about the new version. I dislike the LEDs for a few reasons. The old version used a Blue LED at the base of the stick which when it was plugged into a powered USB port would blink, brightly, to show it was charging, it was easy to see. The new one uses the Red LED which is very small making it difficult to see unless you are holding it in your hand. Obviously, this isn't a show stopper but it is a small inconvenience as one simply cannot look across the room to see if the unit is finished charging. Also, one normally associates a flashing Red light to mean a failure or error of some sort so I think they had it correct the first time with a Blue LED located on the device where it was clearly visible at all times.
But, the bottom line will be reliability and only time will tell if this new and faster version is as dependable as the old.

La configurazione nonostante i miei timori è risultata abbastanza facile. La pendrive è totalmente in metallo e ha una copertura in materiale plastico. Il mio giudizio non può essere che positivo.
