With all of the data leaks being announced on a daily basis, many people have decided that they would rather host their own data in order to maintain control. While there are many options, such as NAS devices, sometimes you may want access to your files anywhere you are, regardless of an Internet connection, so a portable storage device is something to consider. But once the device leaves the house, what happens if you accidentally lose it or your laptop bag is stolen?

Back in 2018, I took a look at the iStorage diskAshur PRO2, a secure portable hard drive that encrypted all data on the device. Today, I'll take a look at the iStorage datAshur PRO2, a device that provides similar functionality to the diskAshur PRO2, only in a small USB thumbdrive form factor that you can easily put in your pocket and carry with you.
