It offers USB 3.0 connectivity for fast 600 MB/s data transfers, separate Admin and User PIN modes, programmable brute-force defense, and a software-free design compatible with any USB-enabled operating system. Ideal for professionals demanding uncompromising data security and ease of use. ## Description Apricorn's Padlock DT is a hardware encrypted USB 3.0 Desktop drive line that comes in a variety of storage capacities. Simple and easy to use, Padlock DT offers unparalleled security. Additionally, Padlock DT's software free design means it can be deployed without the need for Admin rights and will work with any USB enable operating system. Apricorn DT offers 256-bit AES XTS hardware encryption and authenticates the PIN number via the integrated keypad. Padlock DT ships with a USB 3.0 cable, AC adapter, Quick Start Manual and comes pre-formatted in NTFS. Padlock DT is Aegis Configurator ready and can be configured with independent Admin and User PIN’s and Recovery PINs. Padlock DT also employs a useful drive reset feature that clears all PINs and data, and creates a new randomly generated encryption key, enabling the drive to be redeployed as needed. The Padlock DT also has an unattended auto-lock, two read only modes, programable brute force counter, lock override for remote booting and a lock slot so the drive to be secured to a permanent fixture. In addition to encrypting all of the PINs, data and the encryption key itself, the encryption chip and circuitry of the Aegis Padlock DT are completely protected by a super tough epoxy compound, which is virtually impossible to remove without causing permanent damage to the electronics. Review: Apricorn Delivers Ultimate Securtity & USB3 - Update July 2014: I have been using three of the 3TB drives for almost 2 years now on a daily basis. I'm very happy with their performance. In response to a couple other reviewers I've been using USB3 on these since I got them on multiple computers without trouble. I would estimate that I get approximately 80 Mb per second transfer speeds (well beyond USB2 speeds.) In regards to it not being compatible with Windows XP - it's also not compatible with DOS 3.1 (sarcasm intended). The only problems I have experienced are problems that we have with all hard drives -- a few sectors going bad - manageable via chkdsk. I intend to buy more of these in the future. Original Post Nov 2012: I have owned several Apricorn secured drives. They have always been easy to use and provide the highest level of security. This newest version has even more features. The most important thing to know is that the encryption security is done by the Apricorn electronics. Take the drive out and try to access the data - no chance. Additionally, because of the way they implement unlocking, the unit is protected from a brute force hack. Documentation is easy to understand (as easy as it can be). I could not be happier. I bought two so I could periodically backup the primary (all hard drives fail eventually) and am going to buy a third (for off-site backup). Review: Best back up drive ever - Wow was a great drive, love the security of requiring a password, great instructions on how to work and format with a mac and its a great backup solution and so easy to use and pretty compact. Wish it got power from usb but thats ok too. ## Features - Separate Admin and User Modes - Aegis Configurator Compatible - Admin and User Forced Enrollment - Data Reovery PIN's - Programable Brute-Force Defense ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B006U6LYMG | | Additional Features | Hardware Encryption, Encrypted Security Chip, Super Tough Epoxy Compound | | Best Sellers Rank | #295 in External Hard Drives | | Brand | Apricorn | | Built-In Media | lock | | Cache Memory Installed Size | 8 | | Color | 2 TB | | Compatible Devices | Desktop | | Connectivity Technology | USB | | Customer Package Type | Standard Packaging | | Customer Reviews | 4.0 out of 5 stars 98 Reviews | | Data Transfer Rate | 160 Gigabits Per Second | | Digital Storage Capacity | 2 TB | | Enclosure Material | other | | Form Factor | 3.5-inch | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00801940464910, 00808112937081 | | Hard Disk Description | External | | Hard Disk Form Factor | 3.5 Inches | | Hard Disk Interface | USB 3.0 | | Hard Disk Rotational Speed | 7200 RPM | | Hard-Drive Size | 2 TB | | Hardware Connectivity | USB | | Installation Type | External Hard Drive | | Item Weight | 2.5 Pounds | | Manufacturer | Apricorn | | Media Speed | 600 MB/s | | Model Name | ADT-3PL256-2000 1967405 | | Model Number | ADT-3PL256-2000 | | Number of Items | 1 | | Special Feature | Hardware Encryption , Encrypted Security Chip, Super Tough Epoxy Compound | | Specific Uses For Product | Personal | | UPC | 804904096110 808112937081 718117588228 797706864837 000832691315 708326913157 809394582891 804067213867 801940464910 | | Unit Count | 1.0 Count | | Warranty Description | 1 | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Apricorn - **Color:** 2 TB - **Compatible Devices:** Desktop - **Connectivity Technology:** USB - **Digital Storage Capacity:** 2 TB - **Hard Disk Description:** External - **Hard Disk Form Factor:** 3.5 Inches - **Hard Disk Interface:** USB 3.0 - **Installation Type:** External Hard Drive - **Special Feature:** Hardware Encryption, Encrypted Security Chip, Super Tough Epoxy Compound ## Images ![Apricorn 2TB Aegis Padlock DT 256-Bit Encrypted USB 3.0 Hard Drive (ADT-3PL256-2000) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51FtLq5r2pL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Pattern, Size** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Apricorn Delivers Ultimate Securtity & USB3 *by G***T on November 20, 2012* Update July 2014: I have been using three of the 3TB drives for almost 2 years now on a daily basis.
