## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is it waterproof? Shock proof? Magnet proof? Etc.?**
A: Waterproof to 3 meters for 30 minutes as I recall.  Very sturdy metal case and cover, and the internal parts are packed in by filler (epoxy?), so yes, pretty much shock proof.  As for magnets - at least to the same degree as a regular USB 'thumb drive" resists them.  I have 2 of them, a 480 MB and a 1 TB unit.  Been using the 480 for about 3 years with complete reliability. Based on my personal experience with them, the company I work for has just chosen them to meet new Department of Defense requirements for storage of certain data that leaves a secure area.  I looked at others before choosing the ASK3, and its simplest to use and meets FIPS 140-2 Level 3 requirements.  Hard to rate it higher than 5 star, but I would if I could.  I also have one of their portable, secure hard drive units - just as solidly built.

**Q: How to change pin?
i finish setup admin pin and user pin
but unable to find how to change the pins
manual describes few topics**
A: I will focus on the user pin process here, I highly recommend the Apricorn YouTube channel, this info is in tutorial video #3 on that channel and it shows all the steps for both user and admin pin changes in real-time.

For the user pin, unlock with the normal pin and unlock button first and wait for the green LED to start blinking.
Then hold number 1 and the unlock button until the red LED starts blinking.
Re-enter the user pin and press unlock, you will see the green LED and blue LED now.
Enter the new user pin and press unlock.
You will see the green LED and a moment later the green and blue LED.
Re-enter the new user pin again and press unlock.
The green LED will show to indicate the process is complete.

The admin pin follows a similar pattern but you hold unlock and 0 to put the key in admin mode first, with different LED patterns to show you are changing admin pin instead of user pin. The Apricorn YouTube channel, tutorial #3, is a good starting point so you can watch the way the LEDs respond in real-time to the button presses.
