The datAshur Personal2 provides peace of mind over the security of sensitive data at an affordable price. Using PIN authentication with military grade AES-XTS 256-bit hardware encryption, the datAshur Personal2 offers complete data security and guarantees 100% protection. The datAshur Personal2 secures data you don’t want others to see, from family photos to files of a more sensitive nature, so you will never have to worry about your personal or company files falling into the wrong hands! The drive incorporates a rechargeable battery allowing the user to enter a 7-15-digit PIN onto the on-board keypad before connecting the drive to a USB port. All data transferred to datAshur Personal2 is encrypted in real-time with the built-in hardware encryption engine and is protected from unauthorised access even if the drive is lost or stolen. In plain and simple terms, without the PIN, there’s no way in! The datAshur Personal2 automatically locks when unplugged from the host computer or power to the USB port is turned off, operates straight out of the box and does not require any software or drivers to be installed.

Returns FAQs

What is your returns criteria?
14 days from date of receipt, or expected date of receipt on non-tracked items.

How do I go about returning my order?
Please contact us via our contact page with your order number. We will provide you with an RMA number and return instructions, including your return deadline and whether a freepost label applies to your order.

Do I need to contact you before returning my order?
Yes, to obtain an RMA number before sending anything back.

Does my item have to include its original packaging?
Yes, to qualify for our 14 day money-back guarantee. For faulty items, we understand you may no longer have the original packaging.

Who pays for return postage?
If your item is faulty, damaged, or not as described, we cover reasonable return postage, or provide a freepost label where available. If you are returning an item for another reason (including simply changing your mind), you are responsible for return postage unless we have expressly confirmed a freepost label in your RMA email — we recommend using a tracked and insured service for items of significant value.

We will. In some circumstances we may ask you to contact the manufacturer directly for assistance.
