Your diskAshur
2
undergoes a rapid self-test to verify all security components are working properly each time you
plug into a powered USB port. The LEDs will go through 3 test stages, blinking in sequence
RED
,
GREEN
and
BLUE
, followed by two
GREEN
blinks and then to
RED
(Standby State) on a successful test. Any test failure will
force the diskAshur
2
to securely reset itself and automatically resume the self-test without affecting the security
characteristics or any data stored on the drive.
To unlock the diskAshur
2
for the first time with the default Admin PIN, insert the integrated USB 3.1 cable to a
powered USB port and follow the instructions in the table below.
