iStorage diskAshur² – PIN-secured portable storage

| Encryption | 256-bit AES-XTS hardware encryption |
| Access | Keypad with 7–15-digit PIN |

Control access with a keypad PIN
Set a unique 7–15-digit PIN and enter it on the integrated keypad to unlock the drive. The design is software-free, so there is no security application to install before use.
A dedicated hardware security processor helps defend against tampering and bypass attempts. If an automated attack is detected, the drive can enter a frozen state. This helps make repeated access attempts ineffective.
Connect across supported systems
The USB Type-A connection works with Windows, macOS, Linux, Android and server operating systems. Plug and Play support makes setup straightforward on a compatible USB device.
Read speeds reach 171 MB/s, while write speeds reach 148 MB/s. These figures help you gauge transfer performance when moving files. The drive is an HDD, so it is suited to portable storage rather than a high-speed solid-state workflow.
Protection for everyday transport
The silicone and rubber housing is dust-resistant and water-resistant. A cable lock slot offers an option for securing the drive at a workstation. LED indicators show drive activity.
Check before you order
- Confirm your computer or device has a USB Type-A port.
- Check that your operating system is Windows, macOS, Linux, Android or a server OS.
- Confirm 500GB provides enough space for your files.
- Check that keypad PIN entry suits your access routine.
