PIODATA iXflash 1TB USB Flash Drive Black 3.2 Gen 1 Lightning USB-C AES-256

Portable storage for iPhone and USB-C devices

The PIODATA iXflash is a 1TB flash drive built for users who move large photo and video libraries between iPhone, iPad, and computers without relying on cloud services. Its dual Lightning and USB-C connectors give direct access to iOS and desktop file systems in a single compact unit. The drive suits creators, developers, and power users who need local, high-capacity backup on the go. Apple MFi certification ensures full compatibility with supported iOS devices.

Hardware encryption and dual-connector utility

AES-256 hardware encryption and a read-only mode protect confidential files from unauthorised access and malware without software overhead. The matte black housing fits most iPhone cases so the drive stays attached during shoots or travel. USB 3.2 Gen 1 bandwidth handles 4K video streaming and high-resolution audio playback directly from the drive. Users can capture photos and video straight to the iXflash, preserving Live Photos and metadata while freeing internal storage.

Check Lightning port and USB-C host support

Verify that your iPhone or iPad model uses a Lightning connector, because newer devices with USB-C ports cannot use the Lightning end. Confirm that your computer or tablet offers a USB-C port capable of data transfer, not charging only. The drive requires the iXflash app for iOS backup and file management, so ensure you can install it on your device. No external power adapter is needed.
