Okay, let me spill the tea on this little encrypted beast. First off, the security is *chef’s kiss*—256-bit AES-XTS hardware encryption? No software nonsense? Cross-platform? Yes, please! I’ve been using it for my freelance gigs, and knowing my client contracts are locked down tighter than Fort Knox is a vibe.

But y’all… this thing gets HOT. Like, ‘could probably fry an egg on it’ hot. I left it plugged in while grabbing coffee, came back, and nearly dropped it because ouch. Not ideal for a ‘set it and forget it’ workflow. Also, the price? Oof. My wallet still hasn’t recovered from the 16GB splurge (why are extra gigs so expensive?!).

Setup was a minor headache—had to YouTube it like a noob—but once I got past that, smooth sailing. The keypad feels satisfyingly clicky, and the durability? Survived being tossed in my bag with my chaos of cables and lip balms. Still paranoid about hardware failures though (read those horror stories… backups are now my religion).

Verdict: If you need James Bond-level security and don’t mind babysitting a tiny heater, go for it. Just… maybe don’t cuddle with it plugged in.
