“High-quality, albeit fingerprint-prone materials, solid workmanship, splash protection, and the impressive and fully certified encryption are convincing. The transfer rates of the drive have been significantly improved compared to the datAshur PRO² and the omission of the key pad has made it possible for the first time to publish a compact model that can actually be carried on a keychain.”

“If you have data that needs total protection, this is a great and affordable solution. Anyone with sensitive data to protect should be using the diskAshur M2. Highly recommended.”

“The M2 is solid and safe (and your data is encrypted) and it is super easy to unlock.”

“If you value your data (and you should) then the iStorage diskAshur M2 encrypted SSD will give you real peace of mind. It’s a very well thought out and secure piece of kit.”

“As more people work from home and data moves from corporate servers to home offices, individuals and corporations are looking for ways to ensure their data is protected. Using a hardware encrypted drive like the DISKASHUR M2 Portable SSD adds a level of protection unmatched by any ordinary external storage device.”

“The diskAshur M2 strikes a good balance between rugged construction, platform-agnostic use, and encryption standards without resorting to local software or unreliable fingerprint sensors on USB drives. Its everyday use is simple enough but not entirely trivial, which, we feel, is also a good compromise between the level of protection and ease-of-use.”

“The datAshur BT does very well, considering of course that we’re talking about a very compact drive. User authentication via Bluetooth is very convenient and as for its encryption strength I was unable to bypass them, at least with the limited software tools I have at my disposal.”

“I found the datAshur to be a secure and reliable product that works across a number of platforms, and as you carry your smartphone everywhere with you, you’re always able to unlock it safely.”

” iStorage won ‘Security Innovation of the Year’ from the BCS & Computing UK IT Industry Awards, which provides a platform for the entire profession to celebrate best practices, innovation and excellence, for iStorage ‘datAshur® AES 256-bit USB flash drive encrypted with a PIN code Access to innovative security measures, ease of use and affordability”

“The iStorage diskAshur M2 is an extremely compact and portable SSD featuring encryption and security features that ensure your data is protected on the go without the need for additional software, allowing it to work with any computer. I think the drive has a great use-case for work, storing backups or even students!”
