PIN access helps protect your files

Set a unique 7–15 digit PIN on the integrated keypad. The drive uses hardware-based 256-bit AES-XTS encryption, so encryption takes place on the device rather than relying on host software. It also has a lock-out function and a secure microprocessor designed to resist tampering and bypass attacks.

Because setup and operation are software-free, the drive works across supported Windows, Mac, Linux and Android systems. This makes it useful when you move files between compatible computers or devices.

Fast transfers in a portable drive

USB 3.2 Gen 1 provides a data transfer rate of 5 GT/s. The drive reaches read speeds of up to 362MB/s and write speeds of up to 358MB/s, helping you move files without relying on a slower hard drive. Its 256GB capacity suits work documents, project files and other everyday data.

The black housing combines rubber and silicone. It is dust resistant and water resistant, adding protection when you carry it between locations.

Check compatibility and capacity

  • Confirm your computer or device has a USB Type-A port.
  • Check that your operating system is Windows, Mac, Linux or Android.
  • Confirm that 256GB provides enough space for the files you plan to carry.
  • Check that a keypad-entry PIN suits your access and security needs.
