CRU-DataPort SecureDock 500GB Encrypted Enclosure
Jan 11th, 2010 | By NivedhThe CRU-DataPort SecureDock is definitely a unique product. This is not your average external hard drive enclosure! Offering both USB 2.0 and eSATA connectivity, the SecureDock manages to do what it says and does so extremely quickly as our testing shows – especially if you use the eSATA interface. In terms of encryption, the device is very easy to use. There is no software to install and everything is seamless. The lock-and-key system and mini-USB style security keys work well as well. My favorite feature has to be the fact that you can use any SATA hard drive with the SecureDock; you’re not limited to just the 500 GB unit that comes with it.

All things considered, the CRU-DataPort SecureDock is a flawless product. The only question that remains is, do you really need AES 128-bit security for your external hard drive? If your answer is yes, then look no further than the CRU-DataPort SecureDock.

I’d like to thanks CRU-DataPort for making this review possible
