## Description

Encrypted Secure USB 3.0 memory key

Review: Terrible really… suddenly after a few months of very light use, half the keyboard isn’t working and no way to access the data. It took us more than 10 emails to support to get a proper reply. Out of Australia, we need to ship it for assessment first and with our data on it before we get a reply. Despite the manufacturer fault, we’re still required to pay shipment to and from the US, ridiculous really. Looks elsewhere.
Review: Thus far this seems like a high quality product thats easy to use for most people. Im unsure on how long the memory will last but thus far it has worked just fine.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review
*by B***E on 4 December 2023*

Perfect, as all products of this manufacturer. Too expensive compared to alternatives. Sad that this device has only one user pin code. It would be great to have the possibility to limit the use on some specific hosts for simple users, but it is not proposed by any manufacturer.
