The IronKey drive will launch its own version of Windows 10 that resides on the USB drive - not the host PC.

Simply plug the IronKey USB drive into a computer’s port, start the PC, and IronKey will bypass the PC’s hard drive. The magic behind IronKey WorkSpace W200 is the fact that the USB drive contains a full version of Windows 10 for just $100 that runs independent of its host PC. Earlier models, we found, ran hot, were not as user-friendly and cost 30 percent more. We were impressed by huge improvements in price, performance and versatility that Imation delivered with this latest Windows 10 rev of its flagship PC To Go USB drives.

Starting at $100, Imation’s IronKey WorkSpace W200 delivers a 32-GB USB drive that boots to a version of Windows 10, allowing IT administrators to lock down a USB-based mobile desktop that that can be used on most Windows PCs and Macs.ĬRN put IronKey WorkSpace W200 for a spin. One way to keep things safe and put compliance concerns to rest is to use Windows To Go devices that allow you to boot a fully functional copy of Windows straight from a USB drive. Mobility can get messy, from infected systems to key loggers to insecure browser settings that leak passwords and corporate secrets. Securing an increasingly mobile workforce that jumps from desktop to coffee shop, Mac to notebook PC can put even the calmest enterprise administrator on edge.
