Introduction

Note: The datAshur Pro rechargeable battery is not fully charged, we recommend the battery be charged
prior to first use. Please plug in the datAshur Pro to a powered USB port for 60 minutes to fully
charge the battery.
Thank you for purchasing the iStorage datAshur
activated flash drive.
The datAshur Pro uses military grade XTS-AES 256-bit hardware encryption, which encrypts all data stored on the drive in
real-time. The datAshur Pro requires no software and is OS and host independent.
The datAshur Pro 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 Pro is safe and cannot be
accessed by any unauthorised person.
The datAshur Pro can be configured with both a User and Admin PIN, making it perfect for corporate and government
deployment. As the datAshur Pro 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.
Caution: The datAshur Pro is shipped with a default User PIN of
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.

If you forget the User PIN, you can use the Admin PIN to unlock the drive and set a new User PIN. However, if you forget both the User and Admin PINs, there is no way to recover access to the data. In such a case, you must reset the datAshur PRO. The reset process deletes all data, clears the User and Admin PINs, and creates a new encryption key, reverting the device to the default User PIN of "1-1-2-2-3-3-4-4".

To recover your password for the iStorage datAshur Pro, you cannot retrieve the existing password. Instead, you must reset the device, which will delete all data and create a new encryption key. Follow these steps to reset the device:

1. Press and hold the number 7 button, then press the Key button once and release both buttons.
2. Enter 9-9-9.
3. Press and hold the number 7 button again, then press the Key button once and release both buttons.

After completing these steps, the red LED will fade out, indicating the reset process is complete. The device will revert to the default user PIN (1-1-2-2-3-3-4-4) and must be reformatted before use.

To recover a forgotten password for the iStorage datAshur Pro, you must reset the device. This process deletes all data, reverts the user PIN to the default (1-1-2-2-3-3-4-4), and forces the creation of a new encryption key. The device will also need to be reformatted. Follow these steps:

1. Press and hold the number 7 button, then press the Key button once and release both buttons.
2. Press 9-9-9.
3. Press and hold the number 7 button again, then press the Key button once and release both buttons.

Once the reset is complete, the red LED fades out.
