iStorage datAshur PRO² 256GB USB 3.2 flash drive

Secure USB drive for regulated data

The iStorage datAshur PRO² 256GB uses a built-in keypad for 7–15 digit PIN entry and encrypts every file with AES-XTS 256-bit hardware encryption the moment it is written. No software is required, so the drive works on any host with a USB port including Windows, macOS, Linux, Chrome OS, Android, thin clients and virtualised environments. FIPS 140-2 Level 3 certification and IP68 dust and water resistance make it suitable for GDPR, CCPA and HIPAA workflows.

Replaces unencrypted or software-encrypted sticks

Organisations that currently rely on unprotected flash drives or software-based encryption can switch to this hardware-encrypted model to eliminate the risk of user error and meet mandatory compliance standards. The jump is worth it when data must remain inaccessible without a PIN, even if the drive is lost, stolen or connected to an untrusted system. It is not for buyers who need a second factor beyond the onboard keypad or who require remote management features.

256 GB capacity with 168 MB/s reads

The drive comfortably handles large document sets, encrypted backups and media libraries while delivering up to 168 MB/s read and 116 MB/s write speeds over USB 3.2 Gen 1. Performance scales down on older USB ports but remains functional. It is not for workflows that demand sustained throughput above these figures or for users who need capacities beyond 256 GB.
