Not for medical equipment
Did not work in all of our ultrasound machines. Just one. Disappointed. Otherwise, it's fine.

Seems like a good product
I like using the drive. My only concern is, what happens if/when the internal battery goes bad?

Water resistance is less than desirable
I bought this flash drive (512GB) a little over 3 months ago.

especially since I work on a Chromebook and most other encrypted flash drives don't work
but the water resistance it said it was resistant up to 4 ft but I forgot the drive in my pocket when it was raining out. And the drive was...

Well made, but complex
The IronKey Keypad 200 is very well built and sturdy. Not that I will do it, but my guess is I can drive a car over it and it would survive. Also seems at least splash proof with Key place in the holder as a fine silicone or rubber seal between the case and the key seems made to exclude water. The bad part and reason to take away one star is the complexity of the inst...

High price but worth it.
Well made. Keys depress with precision. I found a video of the setup process. The video was much simpler than the following the setup instructions. Price seemed high until I got the item. I feel much safer with my stored data as I travel.

Response from Staples :
Hello,
The IKKP200 is designed to be OS independent, once unlocked it should operate as a normal USB drive. In some instances with medical equipment the USB drive must be formatted as FAT32 which could be the problem.
If you have any other questions or concerns, visit our support page: https://www.kingston.com/en/support, or send us a direct message via Twitter, Instagram, or Facebook Messenger.

I like it, but can it survive years and years?
So far so good! I ordered a week ago, the encryption and decryption works flawlessly so far. No issue has arisen, and it is compatible with all the platforms that I needed it to be compatible with MacOS, Wiindows, Linux, and IpadOS.

Works great!
This Encrypted USB Drive by KingstonTech works great! This is very easy to use. I have never seen a USB drive like this before and I like it very much. I love the concept of this type of secure USB Drive. I have used other USB drives that you can lock with a password but with the physical key pad locking system is next level.

Great for keeping things private!
This is great for when you want to protect your files. It can also be set to read only to protect your files and from viruses. The stick has a built-in rechargeable battery so you never have to worry about it not working. It includes military-grade security with enhancements that protect all your data. The stick is super easy to use and transfer your files. I like the f...

Protects and gives peace of mind
This encrypted USB really gives peace of mind. Works for any sensitive content you want to keep safe from prying eyes. It was easy to set up both the user PIN and the admin PIN by following the video's on the brand website.They also provide a walkthrough video that explains the functions of the USB. Take care to remember your passcode, if the wrong admin PIN is entered...

Safe and secure!
Finally this is one way I’m actually confident that keeping my important files safe. Having specific files that I need to transfer between systems not connected to a network, the encryption the iron key provides is something I’m confident in especially with the protection against brute force attacks.

Key pad lock
Great USB. Works great. We used it to store photos and it was great as it held a good amount. We like rhat it has the key pad to get into incase we lose it. The USB was easy to use and downloaded what we needed rather quickly with no issues. We will get one for each of our kids so they can store their school work.

Safe!
I really like this Ironkey encrypted flash drive! It holds a lot of pictures on it and I love that it has a keypad to set up a password so that of you were ever to lose it or it got stolen you would know that your files and pictures are safe because of the keypad password. It’s a good size flash drive too not too small or too large

Amazing Secure Drive
I needed something to backup some tax files and wasn't comfortable using a traditional drive and encrypting it, and well this was the perfect answer to my issue. I love the keypad feature and have successfully backed up the files I wanted offline... securely and easily. Now I have all files off my pc and on this drive safely stored.

I recently got this to try to secure some files that I was a little uneasy having just sitting on a drive and in one of my cabinets.

Unbeatable safety
My husband, who works in I.T., was super excited about this drive. He always looking for a superior way to store our important files and paperwork Incase of emergency and/or fire. He was able to scan all our physical copies and save them to the drive to not only free up space in our safe but provide extra security.
