Thank you for purchasing Transcend’s USB Flash
drive with built-in 256-bit AES encryption
security. JetFlash® SecureDrive helps you safeguard
data by creating a private, password-protected area
on your JetFlash drive. Once enabled, nobody but
you will be able to see or access files stored within
the Private Zone.
