Key Features
Integrated Fingerprint Security
The Lexar JumpDrive Fingerprint F35 stands out with its built-in fingerprint reader, offering a seamless and highly secure method of data access. The drive can store up to 10 unique fingerprint IDs, allowing a small group of authorized users to access a secure partition on the drive. This biometric authentication is ultra-fast, with recognition taking less than one second, providing quick and convenient access to your files without the hassle of remembering complex passwords.
Dual-Layer Data Protection
In addition to fingerprint access, the F35 provides a second layer of robust security. The drive uses advanced 256-bit AES encryption to protect your confidential files. This military-grade encryption ensures that even if the drive were accessed by an unauthorized user, the data would remain unreadable. The security software allows you to set a public partition for shared files while keeping your sensitive data locked away in a secure, encrypted partition.
Fast USB 3.0 Performance
The F35 is not just about security; it also delivers strong performance for its class. Utilizing the USB 3.0 interface (also known as USB 3.2 Gen 1), it provides significantly faster data transfer speeds compared to older USB 2.0 drives. With read speeds of up to 150MB/s for most capacities and up to 300MB/s on the 256GB model, it allows for quick and efficient transfer of large files, ensuring a smooth workflow.
Durable and Portable Design
Constructed with a sleek and durable metal casing, the Lexar F35 is built to withstand everyday use. Its solid design protects the internal components from physical damage. A protective slider safeguards the USB connector when it’s not in use, and a key ring loop makes it easy to attach to a keychain or bag. This combination of ruggedness and portability ensures your data is secure and accessible wherever you go.
Easy Setup and Management
Setting up the security features on the F35 is a simple process. The drive comes with a pre-loaded application that guides you through enrolling fingerprints, creating user accounts, and managing the secure and public partitions. The intuitive software interface makes it easy to assign access to different users and customize the drive’s security settings, even for those who are not tech-savvy.

FAQs
How do I set up the fingerprint security on the Lexar F35?
Setting up the fingerprint security is straightforward. When you first plug the drive into a Windows or Mac computer, it will present two partitions: a public one and a small one with the setup software. You need to run the pre-loaded “FingerTool_Lexar” application to register an administrator’s account and fingerprint. From there, you can enroll up to 9 additional user fingerprints and customize the size of the secure, encrypted partition and the public, unencrypted partition.
What happens if I forget my password or my fingerprint doesn’t work?
For security purposes, there is no master password or reset mechanism that bypasses the fingerprint and password protection. If you are locked out, you will need to re-format the drive, which will erase all data. This is a crucial security measure to prevent unauthorized access. It’s recommended to back up your data and to register multiple fingerprints to avoid being locked out.
How fast are the Lexar F35 transfer speeds?
The Lexar F35 offers varying speeds depending on the capacity. The 32GB, 64GB, and 128GB models have a read speed of up to 150MB/s, while the 256GB model boasts read speeds of up to 300MB/s. These speeds are significantly faster than a standard USB 2.0 drive, making it efficient for transferring files. However, write speeds are generally lower than the advertised read speeds.
