Key details for secure file storage

Unlock it before connecting

Enter your PIN on the integrated 11-key keypad before plugging the drive into a USB port. A rechargeable battery powers PIN entry, so you can unlock the drive first. The drive automatically locks when unplugged or when power to the USB port is switched off.

Files transferred to the drive are encrypted in real time by its built-in hardware encryption engine. This helps protect your information if the drive is lost or stolen. It also includes brute-force attack defence, a lock-out function and a read-only mode.

Use it across supported devices

The USB Type-A connection works with compatible PCs and laptops, as well as devices with a USB or OTG port. Supported systems include Windows, macOS, Linux, ChromeOS and Android. It is also compatible with thin clients, zero clients, embedded systems, Citrix and VMware.

Plug and Play operation means no software or drivers are needed. The drive is also bootable, and a write-protection switch helps prevent changes to stored files.

Check your setup before ordering

• Confirm your device has a USB Type-A port or a compatible USB/OTG connection.
• Check that your operating system is Windows, macOS, Linux, ChromeOS or Android.
• Confirm that 16 GB provides enough space for the files you plan to carry.
