“It is nigh on impossible to break into the drive without destroying it. iStorage have created a tamper proof design that covers the drive in order to discourage any disk brutality…..the diskAshur² 1TB hard drive, the read and write speeds are actually really good and above specs as well….there are some cheaper brands/devices on the market, but your data security shouldn’t be risked for the sake of a couple of bucks. I’m a firm believer in spending once and doing the job right over buying cheap and buying twice (potentially).”
