what exactly does itdo and how does it work, is it like a flashdrive lock

It is a fingerprint security key. You create a password for your computer or other device and then rather than enter the password to unlock the device, you unlock it with your fingerprint.

This device allows you to scan your fingerprint and then use it in lieu of a password for startup log in, or secure folders for fingerprint swipe access. Works awesome. Portable, plugs into USB port using an extension cable

When you install it, you scan each of your fingers. Then you choose which finger does what. For example, your pointer finger may be the password for the computer, while the pinkie finger will bring up whatever program you associate it with.

The device is hard to use. Erratic behavior. Lack of included software makes set up even more difficulty. It may not be a fault of the device but may be due to combination of software, OS, etc. Too much time spent trying to make it work. I am not using it because of unreliable performance. More hype than worth.

Sorry, I have no idea what you are asking me about, all I can tell you is that this drive works with a USB port, other than that, I can't help you :(

You plug in and have to open the icon to set it up. It will then walk you through creating a password for encryption. Each time you plug it in you have to click on the icon, put in your password, and then it will open. This is fairly easy for an encrypted thumb drive, but you could get an even easier option if you don't need encryption. Encryption just means that if someone steals the thumb drive they have to put in a password to open your documents. Non-encrypted means that you don't have to put in a password to open it, so you just plug it in and it works.

It works with any USB drive but is very unstable, slow and doesn't allow access to multiple computers at the same time. Don't buy it. It is not a good product.

Yes, the flashdrive itself works fine! Just be aware that it is NOT the genuine item, is a slightly different toy, and does not come with the programming that the original does, but for just something to move files around on it works great.

no, I am amazed how different flash drives make difference. never heard back from sangean customer service. it is cheap radio, cheap usb...not worth the time, trouble I put into trying to figure out. I would avoid this radio...some sandisk flash ok, adapter other flashes seem to work. still radio bad idea.

I use it on Mac and windows. it is best to "eject" the flash drive before removing it in order to prevent data corruption. you shouldn't have a problem safely removing the drive while the computer is on

"My Passport" drives have a chip that provides encryption with a password. You can turn that on or off depending on what you desire but you have to install some Western Digital software in order to use that password function. I guess that's what they call the "passport". The "Elements" drives do not have that chip. Many people prefer to avoid the encryption chip. According to an answer I got in WD forums, the hard drive itself is the same in both the "Elements" and in the "My Passport" enclosures. Strangely, though, at Amazon, "2TB My Passports" are always on sale for much less than the "2TB Elements." "Personally, I would prefer the "Elements" but it costs about $40 more than a "My Passport." I bought the cheaper of the two. "My Passport" drives come with some software that is supposed to provide backup of your data but many people are less than pleased with the performance of that software. You don't have to use that backup software. The "automatic cloud backup" is nothing more than a web address for some online storage that you must pay for and is accessible to anyone with a web browser anyway. So, "Elements" = hard drive in a nice enclosure that is just that. Many prefer that. "My Passport" has a chip on the board that can password and encrypt everyting you put on the hard drive. Should provide some safety if someone steals your drive but, on the other hand, if that chip fails or if you forget your password, you're dead in the water. Everything on the passworded/encrypted drive is not retrievable. "My Passport" drives also include some free backup software which you can take or leave. "My Passport" drives, however, do require a set of utilities to be installed to manage the drive's sleep time, password function, and a forced "Virtual CD" region of the drive which you can also turn on or off.

it basically just another drive (external) on your PC - thus anything that writes to a disk will write to it - do it all the time with this or an SD for data files (program), video templates, docs, etc. Easiest way to think of it is as another form of a USB thumb drive.

It is a 'Hot Swap' function button. It allows you to remove an existing drive and attach a different one. It works well.

This USB works directly with the keyboard, the OS's Lock its irrelevant. All that is typed into the PC or MAC pass trough this Device then the PC or MAC OS. Now do me a Favor and have an awesome day!

It acts as though it is an external drive. Just plug in and access your files, it's super easy.

Hi Chris, The DT Locker Plus G3 flash drive is a personal level secure drive and uses basic AES with at least 128-bit level encryption. If you require a certain level of encryption it would be best to consider one of our business level encryption drives, described here: http://www.kingston.com/datasheets/Secure_Comparison_Chart_US.pdf Thank you for your interest in the DTLPG3! -Jewel, Kingston US Technical Support

SD cards have a lock to protect for accidental erase. Trans Flash do not have a lock and they are interchangeable with the Secure Digital (SD) cards'

The metal part gets in the flash drive itself. You have a little button on the back of the flash drive that you slide up or down.

I believe there is a password protection function that can be enabled, and the cable appears to be a standard A to Micro B USB 3.0. The cable it comes with is definitely very short-- my tower has a USB input at the top and the drive has to sit on top of the tower when I use it or it dangles off my desk.

With the encryption constantly enabled on this USB flash drive, I would think it would not work. Even with the Drive formatted, it would not work.
