help iStorage diskAshur2 FAQ
How do you unlock an iStorage diskAshur2?
The drive has a physical keypad and unlocks only after the correct PIN is entered. Authentication and encryption happen on the drive itself, so no unlock application is required on the host computer.
What encryption does the diskAshur2 use?
It uses hardware-based AES-XTS 256-bit encryption. All data written to the drive is encrypted automatically rather than relying on Windows BitLocker or macOS FileVault.
What happens after repeated wrong PIN attempts?
The diskAshur2 includes brute-force defenses that progressively restrict additional guesses. Its documented process allows a limited sequence of attempts before protective reset behavior can make the stored data inaccessible.
Is the diskAshur2 waterproof?
It carries an IP56 rating, meaning it is protected against dust ingress and powerful water jets. That does not mean it is designed for prolonged submersion like an underwater storage device.
