Pros
  • Availability
Cons
  • Cable shorter than other options

Wow! An External Hard Drive Awesome Security

If you are looking for a highly secure place to store your computer data, then iStorage is your answer. I bought their model #: diskAshur DT2 and it's an amazing 2TB secure hard drive. I bought it at a very cheap price. It has 3 levels of security and a feature that allows one admin password and can be configured separately for many other user passwords, giving the admin full control. It's a 256-bit device and amazingly fast. diskAshur DT2 is well designed and built like a brick. The setup and…

Pros
  • Easy Installation
Cons
  • There are other interesting options.

So make sure you back up important data to a different location on a solid state drive so you don't lose it if/if someone decides to destroy your data without even connecting it to a computer or trying to all fancy, nonsensical resin to circumvent glaze. What a…

Pros
  • Seems to be all for now
Cons
  • Possibility of update

So far so good: Computers and accessories

Many manufacturers try to get users to download their applications just to use their hardware. It was expensive. But it is a good hardware solution. Time will tell if it holds up. But I've had it for a few months and so far so good

Pros
  • Great price
Cons
  • Weight
