Create Linux Usb Password Manager

I' use these for Linux distros, for me its better then USB drives...

Does exactly what it's supposed to do, and sounds good doing it. I've got zero complaints about the function. Two annoyances though: 1 - LIGHTS A red one for phantom power and another blinky fella under both the small volume knobs. Can't leave it plugged in overnight or my room lights up. Can't put tape over them either :/ I may try to tear it apart and unsolder the LEDS... 2 - It's a thing to attach fake storage to USB devices now and put the device's manual in it. Kinda cool. Until your monitor and audio interface and other audio interface all have manuals filling up the sidebar of OS file manager... it's just gross. Disabling in device manager only lasts until you change the USB port. I suppose you could plug it into every port on your pc and disable it for each to cover them all... Whatever. Not required and it's just clutter.

This was very easy to install, and works perfectly. I was able to transfer my Licences from the old USB stick by simply dragging them from one USB to the other. I recommend that after installing the Software, first shutdown your Computer, unplug he USB device, then plug it back in and power it back on again. Otherwise, it may not appear under Device Manager, nor in the License Control Manager. Also , make sure you download and install the latest software from the iLok Website.

Great USB and way Password protect your important documents, easy to use, light weight with aluminum for addend durability. Software is easy to use to password protect your important documents but easy also to access files that don't need encription. Very fast to transfer files between computer and other usb drives.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This usb drive has encrypted security which is very useful when you have something private to save. It can be locked with password for security. However, I would be very careful as forgetting the password may lead to losing the data stored. It looks pretty too, I carry it in my keychain all the time.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great storage device with password protection. This hardware encrypted usb is easy to set up and will keep my files protected while on this drive that can store up to 8GB. There is a great video on YouTube that also walks you through and explains the way this usb is setup and how to set and change a password.

I bought this diskless and installed a pair of HGST NAS DeckStar 6TB HDD as a RAID1 on a Win7 network. Have contacted Buffalo support a couple of times and could not disagree more with the dissatisfaction expressed by other reviewers: I had fast, accurate and literate replies. I use this as a strictly LAN device, no Torrent, no iStuff. A positive is the USB port to which a backup drive may be added and the system can be set to do an automatic back-up to this drive (I'm security conscious and have a 6TB WD Red NAS mounted there and back-up is done very night and reported to me by email). A potential issue in event of a hardware failure is the Linux OS as Linux formatting differs from MS, but the USB back-up mitigates this as it is MS formatted. Also, while fast enough for my purposes, the processor's speed may not be up to another person's expectations. All in all, coming up to four years now, I'm very satisfied.

I use these mainly when I want to make bootable USBs for various flavors of Linux, but also for sharing files when internet transfer is not practical (it is true! Sometimes "the cloud" is impractical!) I have not noticed any slowdown in data transfer relative to other USB 2.0 drives. I keep them on a keychain-or rather, several keychains, as I can never seem to have enough of these small-capacity, compact drives. I wish the 16GB size were not special order. It is getting harder to find small USB keys, and it seems a waste of admittedly cheap space to use half to an eighth of a thumb drive that will only be used to boot from a modest-sized OS. Of course, instant gratification/shipping is not always absolutely necessary. I mean, theoretically. I suppose.

The product works without any drivers in OSX or Linux. (I assume this would be true in Windows too, but I have not tested.) The USB vendor ID is: 0d8c The USB product ID is: 013c The manufacturer is C-MEDIA. The cap provided is somewhat useless.

Ive used quite a few of these SATA bridges. This one is one of the best ones. I used to use the OWC/NewerTech adapters, but Ive had a lot of them fail. I took a number of them apart, and they have a lot of defects. The last one I got had the cord glued on with hot glue and barely soldered. All of them had lots of poor solder joints and many of them had balls of loose solder rolling around inside. This adapter is actually constructed properly. Im glad I got this one. The fit and finish is very tight and clean, and its more durable and suitable for professional use. Ive been using it for a while now, and its been holding up extremely well. I used it in Mac OS, Linux, and Windows (mostly Mac OS and Linux) and it is plug and play without any drivers needed. Its based on an ASMedia controller and does connect at 10 Gb/s speeds if your computer supports it, but can drop down to slower USB 2 speeds if your computer does not support USB 3. It not only supports UASP and TRIM, but it natively supports SMART with smartctl in Linux (use -d sat). This makes it very useful as a diagnostic tool for me. I can connect drives and run SMART diagnostics before installing them in RAID arrays or computers. With a USB-A to USB-C adapter, you can use it with computers that do not have USB-C ports. One word of warning is if you use an active reversible USB-A to USB-C adapter like the Angelbird one, this adapter takes 5 V from your USB port to power the drive, and the active adapter cannot pass enough power to spin up some drives. However, if you use a passive USB-A to USB-C adapter, (non-reversible) you wont have any problems, just make sure that the USB-C plug is oriented a certain way when you plug it in so you get the speed you want. The 12 V input is a nice touch if you need to use a drive that needs 12 V power. The 12 V input does not provide power to the drives that only use 5 V (Ive tried), but this is fine since USB-C can provide enough power for most 5 V drives.
