iStorage diskAshur² SSD – PIN-secured portable storage
For anyone carrying sensitive files between compatible devices, the iStorage diskAshur² SSD adds PIN-secured access and hardware encryption. Its keypad lets you unlock the drive without installing software, helping keep access under your control.
The essentials for secure storage
| Metric | Specification |
|---|---|
| Capacity | 256 GB |
| Interface | USB Type-A, USB 3.2 Gen 1 |
| Encryption | 256-bit AES-XTS hardware encryption |
| Read speed | Up to 362 MB/s |

Set your PIN, then connect
The integrated keypad lets you set a unique 7–15-digit PIN. Once unlocked, the drive works without software installation, so it suits computers and devices where you cannot install extra applications.
Because encryption is handled by the drive’s hardware, files remain protected at rest. A dedicated secure microprocessor uses physical protection mechanisms against tampering and bypass attempts. The drive can also enter a frozen lock-out state in response to an automated attack.
Move files across compatible devices
USB 3.2 Gen 1 provides a data transfer rate of 5 GT/s. Read speeds reach 362 MB/s, while write speeds reach 358 MB/s, making the drive practical for transferring and accessing everyday files.
It supports Windows, macOS and Linux, as well as Android mobile devices. The software-free design also makes it suitable for use across different compatible platforms. Its blue rubber and silicone housing is dust resistant and water resistant.
Check your setup before ordering
- Confirm your device has a USB Type-A port.
- Check that your operating system is Windows, macOS, Linux or Android.
- Confirm that 256 GB is suitable for the files you plan to carry.
- Check that the 84 × 124 × 19 mm size and 180 g weight suit your travel setup.
