A good, secure, USB flash drive January 18, 2008

Solid feeling drive, bulkier than most, supposed to be water proof (have not had the desire to test this yet) easy to setup, and nice security features (hardware 256 AES encryption, and drive lockout after 10 failed authentication attempts which defeats brute forcing. (lockout = reformat of drive, but your data stays secure, this is nice peace of mind and makes the product well worth the price.
I have 1 complaint, which depending on the user may be of value or seem foolish. I tried out the drive by locking my system, then reauthenticating (no reboot). Apparently once the drive has been authenticated in a user sesion, even if the host is locked (ctrl-alt-del) then is logged back into, the drive remains open. I was hoping the drive would require the user to reauthenticate to it as well. I have not tried it, but makes me think if someone was to RDP/VNC in to your box while the drive is authenticated (NetAdmin) then they would have access to your data as well. This may be an issue with WinXP if User quick switching is enabled and is certainly the case if you share user login/passwords on the same box. (I purchased the drive for someone who practices poor data security and was hoping this drive would force good behaviour).
Data throughput is slower than other USB drives / the drive weighs more than most plastic USB thumbdrives. September 23, 2007

Data throughput is slower than other USB drives / the drive weighs more than most plastic USB thumbdrives.
You don't have to buy this to get free and seamless encryption for jump drives if you are using XP, Vista or even Windows 2000.
There IS NO SOFTWARE INSTALLATION when you insert the drive, instead the DTSP_Launcher.exe applet will autorun (if enabled) and walk you through the password setup process, and create a custom hint.
If you fail to enter the password 10 consecutive times, the disk will destroy the protected data with a thorough wipe, we couldn't restore the data with Sysinternals Disk Commander or SmartUnDelete.
Data transfer from the encrypted partition is slower than other jump drives we use, it seems comparable to the latency we encounter when using NTFS EFS formatted disks.
The disadvantage to NTFS EFS is you have to import the decryption certificate / key onto any system you wish to read the encrypted data, unless the key is deleted when done then any data encrypted and stored anywhere can be read by the importing computer.
Titanium casing is plastic hybrid and has some noticeable but not necessarily arduous weight, if you are used to carrying it inside your pocket you'll notice if it falls out.
--------- Management ---------
Inside Win32 DiskManager the drive appears as multiple partitions, the first is a virtual CD-ROM about 6MB in size, this contains the DTSP_Launcher.exe, the encrypted partition will appear as a Removable Disk.
The DTSP_Launcher.exe applet remains resident in the application bar tray and can be dynamically unloaded.
Overall, we recommend it because it is straightforward to use, doesn't install software onto your computer and thoroughly destroys the data when necessary.
