Frequently Asked Questions
What is hardware encryption and why does it matter?
Hardware encryption processes data security directly on the drive itself, independent of your operating system or software. Unlike software-based encryption, hardware encrypted SSDs like the diskAshur PRO3 protect your data even if your computer is compromised, making it ideal for handling classified or sensitive information.
Is the diskAshur PRO3 compatible with Mac and Windows?
Yes. The diskAshur PRO3 works with any device featuring USB connectivity, including Windows PCs, Mac computers, and Linux systems. USB 3.2 Gen 1 backward compatibility ensures seamless operation with older USB standards as well.
What does FIPS 140-3 Level 3 certification mean?
FIPS 140-3 Level 3 is a U.S. government security standard that validates encryption strength and tamper resistance. This certification ensures the diskAshur PRO3 meets federal compliance requirements for protecting classified and sensitive data in government, healthcare, and financial sectors.
Do I need to install software to use the hardware encrypted SSD?
No. The diskAshur PRO3 requires no software installation. PIN protection and encryption are managed entirely by the drive's hardware, making setup instant and secure across any compatible device.
