Review on ๐Ÿ’พ iStorage diskAshur2 SSD 8TB Red - Password Protected Secure Portable Solid State Drive - Dust and Water Resistant, Portable, Military Grade Hardware Encryption - USB 3.1 IS-DA2-256-SSD-8000-R by Brian Wersching

Revainrating 1 out of 5

The Auto Lock feature makes this disc unusable. Very disappointed.

I took my iStorage diskAssure2 out of the box, created my own admin password and thought I was done until I noticed that the auto-lock feature disabled the drive after just 50 seconds. I followed the instructions and tried increasing the time limit. I also tried disabling the auto lock feature entirely. Nothing worked. Then I read another review here about the same issue and a company representative said that there is a setting in Windows 10 related to USB port timeouts. A company representative provided a link to the fix on the iStorage website, but the link is no longer valid. I tried contacting iStorage support with no response. It was very disappointing and I got past the return window. I would avoid this company at all costs.

Pros
  • diskAshur2 works on any device with a USB port, no software required. Compatible with: MS Windows, macOS, Linux, Chrome, Android, Thin Clients, Zero Clients, Embedded Systems, Citrix and VMware.
Cons
  • Cord is shorter than other picks
