### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Perfect product

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ OS independent. Secure.

Great, convenient, secure, backup storage. OS independent. Encrypted. Would buy again.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great! Can use on any operating system
*by T***R on August 11, 2021*

Just what I was looking for! I like having a copy of some documents on a secure drive. Yes, you can use cloud password/file vaults, but I like having the option of having it on a physical drive. With this one, the encryption is built into the thumb drive itself, so there is no software to update in order to use it. Just enter the password on the drive itself and plug it in. This is great because I also have a Chromebook and this works perfectly. Please understand that you have 10 seconds to enter your password, then the drive must be inserted within 30 seconds. No problem. It offers a nice option that lets you set the timeout period after which the drive turns off. Nice if you happen to leave it in your computer that's on. Don't forget your password. After 10 attempts it wipes your drive COMPLETELY, so you lose all your data and need to reformat the drive. Love this drive.
