Secure portable storage

The iStorage datAshur PRO² is a 512GB USB flash drive built around a hardware encryption engine. It authenticates with a 7‑15 digit PIN entered on the device itself, so no software or driver installation is required on the host system.

For regulated-data workflows

Suits professionals who must meet FIPS 140‑2 Level 3, GDPR, HIPAA or CCPA requirements and need a drive that locks automatically when unplugged. Not for buyers who want a simple plug‑and‑play stick without a PIN step, or who need capacities beyond the 512GB this unit provides.

Capacity and throughput

512GB holds large project files, encrypted backups or media libraries with ample headroom for daily transfers. Sequential reads reach 168MB/s and writes 116MB/s over USB 3.2 Gen 1, so moving multi‑gigabyte datasets completes in seconds rather than minutes.

Questions about this item

Do I need a USB Type A port to use the datAshur PRO² 512GB drive?

Yes, the drive has a USB Type A connector and works with any device that provides a USB Type A port, including Windows, macOS, Linux, Chrome OS, Android, thin clients, zero clients, embedded systems, Citrix and VMware.

Will the USB 3.2 Gen 1 drive work at full speed on my older USB 2.0 ports?

The drive is backwards compatible with USB 2.0 ports, but transfer speeds will be limited to the older port's capability rather than the drive's rated 168 MB/s read and 116 MB/s write speeds.

How can I confirm the AES-XTS 256-bit hardware encryption is active after I set my PIN?

Once a 7-15 digit PIN is set, all data written to the drive is encrypted in real time; without entering the correct PIN the drive remains locked and no data is accessible.
