    If you only plan to use your storage devices on your own, presumably trusted, computers then software encryption is much cheaper and IMO more convenient because it can be used with almost any SSD, flash drive, or whatever. It might be useful to produce a video that walks people through creating software encrypted storage, maybe using Veracrypt secured with a Yubikey. I would watch that.

    VeraCrypt is free, file or drive encryption, fake drive with 2nd password... Free and for Windows, Mac, Linux, FreeBSD, Android (EDS Lite), iOS (Disk Decipher and Crypto Disks)

    I would love the keypad 200 with a metal door covering the buttons instead of a cover and retractable usbc. A real ssd controller like my buffalo 500gb is a must. Looking forward to winning that contest Snubs!

    Your videos are great with good information. With a little more skill (bravery) in this type of thing, I plan on storing my digital trust, important account numbers and passwords on a keypad equipped thumb drive similar to the first one shown.

    Hi Shannon and thanks for this informativ video. What if the hard drive breaks? Can it be replaced (yes the data on it is then gone, but if it is a backup it doesn't matter)?

    Hi Shannon. I'm a little confused. After watching the video you said you would love to know what questions the viewer has yet you haven't addressed any of the questions. You stated you are partnering with Kingston. Don't you think you should answer some of the questions? Please go back and read the questions and answer them if you wouldn't mind. I have some of the same concerns as other viewers have already taken the time to ask. Additionally, I'm wondering what happens if the drives were untouched for several years and the rechargeable battery for EACH of these devices was depleted. What then??? TY

  • @schweinhund7966

    I have all 3 devices you are showcasing due to my extensive travel-work in Africa, Asia and Europe. I personally like the External hard drive the most but Kingston could have SIGNIFICANTLY increased security by including small letters and special characters too. I have the 4TB version. I find an Apple Pen or other similar device best for tapping in the passcode as i have “fat digits.” Second, I use the passphrase for the USB drive as it allows a much longer encryption and is the most secure IRONKEY device for brute force. I have the 512GB USB-C version. My least favorite is the external keypad USB drive but it is also good. It is the least secure of their 3 devices in my opinion. I have the 512GB USB C version.

    Interesting! For the ones with a 3 yr battery, would that affect the practicality of using it as mainly a storage drive? If I don't need to use it all the time, would I have to use it once a week or something to keep the battery fresh? And if the battery dies after 3 yrs, I suppose that means you must buy a new battery or a new drive. That raises questions about replacing the battery and how to know when to do that, or making sure you back up your back up and buy a new drive and start all over again, which kinda would defeat the purpose? Thanks!! 👏🏼

    Is the Ironkey a rebranded datashurpro?

  • @sicherlichnicht5759

    what about Samsung T7 Touch SSD ? is it safe ?!

  • @rotflol6666
    @rotflol6666 Рік тому +1

    no tamper protection on the ironkeys? You should have a look at the datashur options, I have been a user for over 5 years and still happy, you need a keypad or touchpad physically on the drive otherwise have a look at the Samsung T5 or T7 which also support encryption with a software unlock

    • @saragirl9

    Apricorn security is another manufacturer of drives like this. I know they are used by a lot of agency's that have high threat level requirements.

    • @Jordan-hz1wr
      @Jordan-hz1wr 9 місяців тому

      Iirc both Apricorn and Kingston license the technology from iStorage.

    Hey I just thought about something on the first device. what if someone just wants to maliciously erase your drive then they could just try 10 times and they successfully delete your files?

  • @michaelwinter5292
    @michaelwinter5292 Рік тому +1

    Shannon why use this over open source file encryption like veracrypt etc? I realise this has hardware encryption and the security features to prevent electronics access etc but then you have the trust issues of not being open source? Would someone in your position be that much worse off with a software encryption tool (i.e. not carrying state level secrets) than going to this extent? Not trying to be critical just curious (from someone with limited resources to verify these things) as I remember there was always a bit of scepticism around Ironkey (being american govt backed) in the original days and haven't heard much about them since they sold the business (though I know several business level people who use to swear by the old Ironkey).

    Any device that destroys data only for incorrect attempts is not really idea. You definitely do not want your only copy to be on such a device.

    • @kafiluz4317

      You don't want a USB Stick to be the only device for your important data.

    With there being a non-zero chance of this SSD being wiped, how often do you find yourself backing up the drive?

  • @mattv5281
    @mattv5281 Рік тому

    You should do a video comparing similar devices from different brands. There's also Apricorn and some others that other comments mentioned

  • @sicherlichnicht5759
    @sicherlichnicht5759 Рік тому +2

    what happens after the drive was reformatted after to many password tries? will it be usable for the thief or would it still be password protected with the original password ?

  • @word42069
    @word42069 Рік тому

    Hey Shannon, do you think the SSD would make a good external backup drive.. reliable enough and conducive to longer term storage? Perhaps not an entire system backup but a decent amount of files?

  • @alberttheroa4164
    @alberttheroa4164 Рік тому

    is it a quick wipe or a 3 pass standard? Seems just a wipe or fat format would still leave data recoverable. any restrictions on using this as a portable os?
