Klare Kaufempfehlung Review: Appears to be very well built - It's quite pricey, but it's working very well so far. The manufacturer information does not elaborate much on the features, but from what I am seeing, the 500S does not appear to be allowing any access to the device other than the actual data reads and writes that I am making. I like that! ## Features - FIPS 140-3 Level 3 Validated for flagship military-grade security - Multi-Password option with Complex/Passphrase modes - Industry-first Dual Hidden Partition option - Crypto-Erase Password for emergencies - Rugged zinc casing for penetration attack protection - User-friendly interface - Fully customisable features and attributes ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0CHNC5KF7 | | Best Sellers Rank | 36,791 in Computers & Accessories ( See Top 100 in Computers & Accessories ) 407 in USB Flash Drives | | Brand | Kingston | | Brand Name | Kingston | | Colour | Black | | Compatible Devices | Compatible with USB Type-A devices that support USB 3.2 Gen 1 | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 out of 5 stars 72 Reviews | | Flash Memory Type | USB Flash Memory | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00740617334777 | | Hardware Connectivity Technology | USB Type A | | Hardware Interface | USB 3.2 Gen 1 | | Hardware interface | USB 3.2 Gen 1 | | Item Weight | 52 g | | Manufacturer | Kingston | | Manufacturer Part Number | IKD500S/64GB | | Memory Storage Capacity | 64 GB | | Memory storage capacity | 64 GB | | Model Name | IKD500S | | Model Number | IKD500S/64GB | | Network Connectivity Technology | USB | | Product Features | Encrypted | | Product Warranty | 5 year manufacturer | | Read Speed | 260 Megabytes Per Second | | Read speed | 260 Megabytes Per Second | | Special feature | Encrypted | | UPC | 740617334777 | | Unit Count | 1.0 count | | Write Speed | 260.0 | | Write speed | 260.0 | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Kingston - **Hardware interface:** USB 3.2 Gen 1 - **Memory storage capacity:** 64 GB - **Special feature:** Encrypted - **Write speed:** 260.0 ## Images ![Kingston IronKey D500S hardware-encrypted USB flash drive 64GB FIPS 140-3 Lvl 3 (Pending) AES-256 - IKD500S/64GB - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51Lx-y1T6FL.jpg) ![Kingston IronKey D500S hardware-encrypted USB flash drive 64GB FIPS 140-3 Lvl 3 (Pending) AES-256 - IKD500S/64GB - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51hCsIv7yRL.jpg) ![Kingston IronKey D500S hardware-encrypted USB flash drive 64GB FIPS 140-3 Lvl 3 (Pending) AES-256 - IKD500S/64GB - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71TXdNNZCSL.jpg) ![Kingston IronKey D500S hardware-encrypted USB flash drive 64GB FIPS 140-3 Lvl 3 (Pending) AES-256 - IKD500S/64GB - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71H3DND+9ZL.jpg) ![Kingston IronKey D500S hardware-encrypted USB flash drive 64GB FIPS 140-3 Lvl 3 (Pending) AES-256 - IKD500S/64GB - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71B8RrZqgrL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Size** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Sicherer USB Stick *by D***A on 31 July 2025* Gut geschützter USB Stick, mit viele Sicherheitsvorkehrungen.
