Introduction
Thank you for purchasing the iStorage datAshur
®
Personal
2
, a highly secure and easy to use, hardware encrypted USB 3.0
PIN activated flash drive.
The datAshur Personal
2
uses military grade XTS-AES 256-bit hardware encryption, which encrypts all data stored on the
drive in real-time. The datAshur Personal
2
requires no software and is OS and host independent.
The datAshur Personal
2
incorporates a rechargeable battery allowing the user to enter a 7-15 digit PIN (Personal Identification
Number) onto the on-board keypad before connecting the drive to a USB port.
Should the drive be lost or stolen, the user can rest assured that all data held on the datAshur Personal
2
is safe and cannot be
accessed by any unauthorised person.
The datAshur Personal
2
can be configured with both a User and Admin PIN, making it perfect for corporate and government
deployment. As the datAshur Personal
2
is unlocked via the onboard keypad and not a host computer, it is not vulnerable to
software/hardware based key-loggers or brute force attacks.

Note
: The datAshur Personal
2
rechargeable battery is not fully charged, we recommend the battery be
charged prior to first use. Please plug in the datAshur Personal
2
to a powered USB port for 60
minutes to fully charge the battery.
Caution
:
The datAshur Personal
2
is shipped with a default User PIN of
1-1-2-2-3-3-4-4
and although it can be used straight out of the box with the default PIN, for security reasons, we
highly recommend that a new User PIN be created immediately
by following instructions under
section 4 “How to change User PIN”.
If you forget your User PIN and no Admin PIN exists, or you forget both PINs, all data will be inaccessible.
