## Description

Review: It has worked reliably for over a year... - Just brilliant
Review: Set-up Issues - The device works fine but I did have a set-up issue. Having created a password the device was then not visible - or, rather, the Security Drive (which is where you save files to) was not visible. All my MacBook was showing me was the 'Total Secure' icon. In other words I was initially unable to save anything to the memory stick because I could not select the necessary drive. Tried re-installing several times and eventually the Security Drive became visible. Wouldn't have a clue whether this is an Apple or Integral issue but if anyone else is having the same problem perhaps my experience will be of use.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Keep you data safe
*by C***T on 21 July 2022*

I use these memory sticks to keep important data, passwords etc. safe. This stick is hardware encrypted and thus more or less impossible to hack. The stick stores all my passwords most of which I generate using random number generators. I then only need to remember one long and complex password; that to the stick. It us easy to use just make sure that the password you create you can remember because if you forget it you won't get back in!
