Despite already owning several dataShur USB sticks and 30 years of fiddling with PCs it was very hard to reset the Admin password. The instructions whilst clear are not EXACTLY what you need to do. When it says 'press Unlock + 1' it only worked if you pressed and held 1 first and then pressed Unlock, ditto all other key/number combinations. It took around 20 goes and constantly unplugging the drive till the new Admin code was accepted.
The attached USB cable is much too short for anything but a laptop. And being USB 3.1 Gen 1 (i.e. USB 3.0 and NOT Gen 2) USB extension cable length is critical. 2m will power it but as soon as you try to write any data it falls over. 50cm seems OK.
The included case was a nice addition but unfortunately the zip fell apart after three uses so something for the landfill.
