Kingston Ironkey D500S 512GB Encrypted Flash Drive | Dual Hidden Partition | FIPS 140-3 Level 3 | XTS-AES 256-bit | BadUSB and Brute Force Protection | Multi-Pin Option | IKD500S/512GB

For the price you really can't go wrong, seting up was simple, storing of personal information and using on the daily, vary satisfied.

Don't forget your password though. If you do there is simple zero way to recover anything. That said, if you do forget it, you can wipe the drive and start over without much issue.

Don't work with sensitive stuff, or care about privacy, or work on million dollar contracts? Then this may not be the right product for you. But if you do and you travel or go on vacation, you need one of these. Always assume your laptop is vulnerable in a rental car or hotel and never leave data on a hard drive.I've used these for years now. It's password-based, which is what I wanted. Authenticators can be a nuisance and biometrics can be replayed. When I'm on a plane, it's easy enough to put a napkin over my hands as I type. They are FIPS validated (very secure) and work fine.I took away a star because it's not a USB-C, making it difficult to use natively with a Mac.

Just what I was looking for. Worked as advertised. Very good quality.

If you work with highly classified data, sensitive corporate proprietary data or are just a fanatic consumer about security, it pretty much stops here. Physically, it's a tank, if you had this on your key ring it could double as a weapon. The software is very easy to use (it's runtime on the device [you don't install anything]) and regarding setup/configuration, can be as simple or complicated as you choose. It is expensive, but it's only "not worth it" if you don't use it. For additional context, I have a feeling this device could be used as a movie prop on a Mission Impossible movie.

Great product fair price I would buy from this seller again

Works well but I think the older sign in was better.

A coworker uses this same drive and was telling me about he absolutely trust the encryption security on his Kingston Ironkey D500S 256GB Encrypted Flash Drive. I am standing by to receive this in a few days. Will add to this review then.UPDATE: I just got this delivered and set it up. It is very durable, heavyweight and tough drive. Set up is easy with the IRONKEY software.
