Data security is very important today both for the general consumer and for the business user. A bunch of lost personal information is begging identity theft and lost corporate data can result in you being fired or the company being sued.

Apricorn has announced a new portable external HDD that is called the Aegis Bio. The drive is encrypted and has biometric security with an integrated fingerprint reader. The biometric sensor keeps people from accessing the drive and the encryption prevents the data theft.

The encryption used for the data is 128-bit AES hardware encryption. The drive is now available in a 640GB capacity and sells for $159. It includes a carry pouch, software, and needed cables.
