Rock-Solid Secure USB Drive From a Trusted Brand
This is a great secure USB flash drive for keeping valuable files safe on the go. I like that it has a USB-C connector, which makes it really convenient to use with modern laptops, tablets, and my Android phone — no adapters needed.I use it interchangeably between my PC and phone, and it’s completely OS-independent, so I don’t have to worry about installing extra software. The physical keypad is easy to use and gives me extra confidence that my data is well protected, with strong XTS-AES 256-bit hardware encryption and FIPS 140-3 Level 3 certification.Although it feels a bit pricey for an 8GB drive, I trust Kingston and their IronKey line — they’ve always made durable, high-quality storage solutions. For me, the peace of mind is worth it. My data is valuable, and I trust this solution to keep it secure, especially with features like brute force protection and BadUSB safeguards.If you need a rugged, highly secure USB drive you can take anywhere without worrying about operating system compatibility or extra software, this is a smart investment. Highly recommended for anyone serious about protecting sensitive files while on the go!

Any complaints come from tech illiterate
I’ve purchased two of these Kingston IronKey keypad 200 drives, one with USB-A in 64 GB and one with USB-C in 128 GB and they really are phenomenal to use, plenty intuitive, and very secure in my experience. I also bought the Apricorn on 8 GB to test it out and it’s essentially a clone of this Kingston drive however, I can say I prefer the Kingston IronKey to the Apricorn due to build quality, although they are very close in comparison, and the more updated protection the Kingston model has over the particular Apricorn I purchased. That may not still be the case so compare specs.I read several reviews on this IronKey and, unfortunately, nearly all of the complaints I read were from users who are having a hard time comprehending and using the technology and need a bit of hand holding through the setup and use process. It’s pretty obvious that many of them are memorizing the steps in the instructions to lock/unlock/read/write with this drive instead of understanding how it functions and the meaning behind the feedback it provides through its blinking or steady combinations of blue, red, and green lights. I’m not sure most of those users understand the difference in the drive being locked and charging, unlocked in read/write, unlocked in read only, unlocked in admin, or locked and in setup mode.Personally, I find this drive very easy to use and understand the mode it’s in. The instructions were simple and straightforward. I only wish the Kingston IronKey was made in the U.S. or basically anywhere other than China.

Good So Far
No problems so far. But I do fear that one day this thing is gonna lock me out. So I need to have a backup drive for it. Only time will tell in regard to that and also regarding durability. It also seems you don’t get enough time to set up a long password so I had to make my password shorter than I wanted to. But smooth sailing so far.

Great To Have Secure Files
This was the answer to a long time security issue with my sensitive files. They are pricey but I expect them to last a long time. Once it’s set up, it’s a cinch. No prob.

Tough and easy to use solution for storing passwords and crtical docs off of your daily PC.

En général Kingston crée d’excellents produits. Ces clés usb sont difficiles d’utilisation, trop de manipulations sur les touches pour arriver à un résultat facile. Je ne les utilise plus..

Este pendrive cuenta con la certificación en el más alto nivel de seguridad de los datos que se puede obtener ahora mismo.En cuanto a nivel de usuario, es fácil de configurar para su uso inicial si tienes el manual de usuario al lado, por lo que recomiendo encarecidamente no borrarlo ni perderlo de vista nunca. El manual viene en inglés dentro del pen drive, pero se puede obtener de la web del fabricante en más idiomas, incluido el español.Los materiales parecen buenos y se siente de calidad al tacto. En mi caso, adquirí el modelo de conector USB A por considerarlo más robusto que el de USB C, conectándolo a los equipos mediante un adaptador de usb a / usb c, sin ningún problema encontrado.Las teclas para introducir la contraseña son muy muy pequeñas, por lo que si tienes los dedos grandes puedes tener dificultades para introducir la contraseña en cada desbloqueo. Mi mano y mis dedos son pequeños y voy muy justo. Para estos casos quizá sea mejor ir a por otro modelo dentro de IronKey.Como última recomendación, conviene mantener una copia de seguridad de los datos del interior, ya que si alguien introduce incorrectamente 10 veces (o las que se configuren) la contraseña, se eliminarán todos los datos del dispositivo y se restablecerá para empezar de cero.
