So, is it possible to use other SD card, say Samsung, Kingston, SanDisk etc., with this device?

Sorry....Just read it again...No other SD cards

Nope, because it's the memory card that has the encryption on the firmware. The card readers/drives are just the hardware keys.

I realize this is probably supposed to be read as "data sure", but I can't help but interpret it as "dat Ashur".

lol I didn't think of it like that, but even the previous product covered was spelled similarly: https://www.techpowerup.com/review/quick-look-istorage-diskashur-m2/. Too bad disk Ashur doesn't have the same ring to it.
