Mobile storage for iOS and desktop

The PIODATA iXflash combines a Lightning connector with a USB 3.1 interface in a single 512GB drive. It is built for iPhone and iPad owners who need extra space for media and backups without relying on cloud services. The drive also works with Windows and Mac computers through its USB port. Apple MFi certification ensures full compatibility with supported iOS devices.

Passive operation with dual connectivity

The drive has no moving parts and draws power directly from the host device, so it runs silently and adds negligible load to an iPhone, iPad or laptop. Both the Lightning and USB 3.1 connections are rated for USB 3.0 data rates, keeping file transfers steady during normal use. No external power supply or cooling is required.

Replaces cloud-only workflows and smaller sticks

It upgrades from lower-capacity Lightning drives that fill quickly with 4K video or large photo libraries. The jump is worth it when you regularly record long sessions or carry a media library offline and want one drive that plugs into both mobile devices and desktop ports. Users who only need occasional document transfers may not need this capacity.

Questions about this item

How do I start the one-touch backup the first time I plug the iXflash into my iPhone?

Connect the Lightning end to your iPhone, allow the iXflash app to open, then tap the single backup button in the app to copy photos and videos directly to the 512 GB drive.

Will the Lightning connector or the USB 3.1 plug wear out after repeated insertions?

Both connectors are rated for standard insertion cycles; keeping the caps on when the drive is not in use protects the contacts from dust and bending.

At what point does the 512 GB capacity become the bottleneck during continuous 4K video recording?

Recording stops once the 512 GB drive is full; the USB 3.1 interface sustains the write speed needed for 4K, so space runs out before the connection does.
