It's not small, so if size is a huge issue, that might be an issue. Granted, it's not enormous (that's what she said), but neither is it tiny (in comparison with other USB drives of similar capacity). It is fairly easy to use, not that complicated, but the PIN is required before you can access the files. If you plug it into your USB port without entering the PIN, nothing happens. Your computer won't even detect that the drive is there. Once the PIN is entered, it works like any other USB drive. File transfer was fast and easy; lightning fast. The price was higher than other USB drives of similar capacity, but if the security is needed, the price really balances itself out. This thing is HACK PROOF. Unless someone has a supercomputer and a team of expert data recovery specialists, they are not getting into this thing without the PIN. The self-destruct feature may not be needed, but it's nice to know you can wipe the drive to avoid your data getting compromised. In short, if you only need a USB for routine use (school, family photos, etc), this might be overkill. If you need security, this thing is your Huckleberry! Update: add to description "will survive washer and dryer". After letting it dry out for a few days, it works fine. Not that I'd recommend doing this repeatedly or on purpose, but this thing is tough! Bloody brilliant! Review: Security and Convenience at a reasonable price - 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.

Carry the datAshur PRO2 with you wherever you go. Portable, rugged, dust & water resistant (IP68 certified) Without the PIN, there’s no way IN!

AVOID! *by C***L on July 28, 2025* I should have returned it when I discovered no matter what I did, I could not get this to work. Tech support never followed up with me either. It's the most convoluted setup of any device I have ever owned. I should have sent it back but life got in the way and it went in a drawer until this weekend. I tried setting it up again to no avail. I will pull out my husbands biggest hammer and pulverize this piece of junk. Save yourself some money and aggravation. ## Frequently Bought Together - iStorage datAshur PRO2 8 GB | Secure Flash Drive | FIPS 140-2 Level 3 Certified | Password protected | Dust/Water-Resistant - Logitech MK345 Wireless Keyboard and Mouse Combo with Palm Rest, 2.4 GHz USB Receiver, Compatible with PC, Laptop, Black - iStorage datAshur PRO 64 GB | Encrypted USB Memory Stick | FIPS 140-2 Level 3 Certified | Password protected | Dust/Water Resistant --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.sa/products/207060274-datashur-pro2-8-gb-secure-flash-drive-fips-140-2](https://www.desertcart.com.sa/products/207060274-datashur-pro2-8-gb-secure-flash-drive-fips-140-2) --- *Product available on Desertcart Saudi Arabia* *Store origin: SA* *Last updated: 2026-06-19*
