J'ai retourné l'article. Review: After researching several options for secure, encrypted, and tamperproof USB storage I ended up going with the iStorage datAshur Pro 2 secure USB flash drive. I have owned an IronKey 16GB Drive for 8 years or so and absolutely love it, BUT the cost for a 128GB IronKey Drive was nearly 5X the cost of this drive. I've read reviews on this product and had initial concerns about the keyboard, complexity of set-up, and the outer dust cover. Take the 5 minutes to read and follow the instructions and the set-up is absolutely straight-forward (dare I suggest easy). The keyboard is small, but very tactile and has distinct feedback when each button is pushed. The outer case seems fine to me, but I won't be attaching to a keyring for everyday carry. As suggested when reading the capabilities of this device, it is a very secure USB storage device, but it does not offer an online encrypted back-up should the device be lost, stolen, or destroyed. The IronKey does offer online encrypted backup, but at a very steep price differential. In fact, you could buy several of the DatAshur devices (conceivably for backups) for the cost on one IronKey. Clearly not as convenient as an encrypted online option, but for most people I think is a great solution. As a data conscious and technology-astute user, I highly recommend the datAshur PRO2 - Secure Encrypted Flash Drive ## Features - Easy to use, PIN authenticated hardware encrypted USB Flash Drive – Perfect solution to protect your digital assets. Simply enter a 7-15 digit PIN to authenticate and use as a normal USB flash drive. When the drive is disconnected, all data is encrypted using AES-XTS 256-bit hardware encryption (no software required). - The datAshur PRO2 will work on any device with a USB port, no software is required. Compatible with: MS Windows, macOS, Linux, Chrome, Android, Thin Clients, Zero Clients, Embedded Systems, Citrix and VMware - Government certified: FIPS 140-2 Level 3 certified.

Does the data remain secure? 2. Is the data lost?** A: The battery can be recharged by inserting into a powered USB port and has no effect on the data. Data will remain intact and secure even if the battery fully discharges due to a period of non-use. We incorporated a battery for convenience as it's easier to enter the PIN before connecting the drive to the USB port. Even if the battery was to malfunction the drive can be used by inserting into a USB port and then entering the PIN. **Q: Has anyone used this and the product has lasted for long time? Many of these products die in 6mths - 1 year** A: I bought mine on October 2019 and have two and all are working well. I did lose the code on one and had to reset it, but I attribute that to bouncing around in my pocket hitting other things like keys and change. I now wrap it in a cloth and have had no problem since. **Q: How would this be any better than just using a $10 flash drive with Windows 10 bitlocker for security?** A: Dear Charles, Thank you for your question. Our datAshur PRO2 is a PIN authenticated, hardware encrypted USB flash drive which employs real-time military-grade FIPS PUB 197 validated AES-XTS 256-bit encryption algorithm. Unlike Bitlocker, the encryption key is stored in a secure microcontroller. Hardware encryption dedicates a separate processor for authentication and encryption. Additionally, another advantage of using hardware encryption is that the device can be used across multiple operating systems. Likewise, hardware-based full disk encryption is much faster than Bitlocker which is a disk encryption software. It is also important to know that every hardware-encrypted iStorage drive has a randomly generated encryption key that is unique. If you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to contact our support team who would be happy to help on +44 (0) 20 8991 6260 or at support@istorage-uk.com Kind Regards, iStorage Limited **Q: What's the difference between the Pro2 and Personal?** A: Dear Russ, Thank you for your question. One of the key differences between datAshur Pro2 and datAshur Personal2 is the certification. The datAshur Pro2 is certified to FIPS 140-2 Level 3, whereas datAshur Personal2 does not hold any certifications. With regards to the features, both datAshur Pro2 and datAshur Personal2 share the same features such as: having both admin and user PINs, read-only mode, timeout lock, brute force protection. The datAshur Pro2 also employs additional features such as One-time User Recovery PIN, Self-destruct PIN, Brute Force Limitation, bootable feature, and many more. Also, the datAshur Pro2 incorporates a Common Criteria EAL5+ (hardware certified) secure microcontroller. In terms of security, both of these drives use AES-XTS 256-bit hardware encryption which is FIPS PUB 197 certified. The datAshur Pro2 is also water and dust resistant and is IP68 certified. Finally, the datAshur Pro2 is made of metal while on the contrary the datAshur Personal2 range is made of robust plastic.

Be careful with this USB drive. It worked for me for 1 week. And it's not that it broke, he destroyed all my sensitive data. The user manual says that the disk destroys the data after entering 10 times the wrong administrative password in a row. Keyword “in a row”. This is not true. There are 3 counters built into the disk: 10 times for the administrative password, 10 times for the user password and 1 time for the recovery password. That is, if, for example, during the course of a year or two years, you accidentally entered the wrong administrative password 10 times, then the disk erases all data without warning, you won’t even know that something went wrong and that the number of attempts ends. The counter runs cumulatively and is not reset without loss data. When you see this disk for the first time, start using it, learn to manage it, it is absolutely natural that you or your user can make mistakes. But this leads to fatal consequences. Technical support cannot help, they do not have a secret recovery code, even a one-time one. Even if you are registered with them on the web-site as a disk administrator. One could envision the generation of a one-time code depending on the serial number and other administrator data. I also note that button presses and firmware work are very unstable. For example, in one session, you enter the password and the disk does not open (you count 1 unsuccessful attempt by the counter) for an unknown reason, the next time you enter the same password, the disk opens correctly, but the counter of failed attempts increases by 1 and does not reset. I don’t understand why this disk is needed at all. Decide for yourself, I’m out of luck. ## Frequently Bought Together - iStorage datAshur PRO2 128 GB | Secure Flash Drive | FIPS 140-2 Level 3 Certified | Password protected | Dust/Water-Resistant - iStorage datAshur Pro+C 128GB | Secure USB Type-C Memory Stick | FIPS 140-3 Level 3 Pending | PIN Protected | Type C-A Adapter Included. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/295857350-istorage-datashur-pro2-128gb-usb-3-2-secure-encrypted-flash](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/295857350-istorage-datashur-pro2-128gb-usb-3-2-secure-encrypted-flash) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Kingdom* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-05-18*
