Sentry K350 hardware encrypted USB flash drive - User Guide
Although older versions should work, they might run in USB 2.0 mode, which can be significantly
slower.
You can check your kernel version by typing the following command in the terminal:
# uname -r
In most newer distributions the drive should automatically mount. To format the drive, first, enter
terminal, then list detected hard disks using:
# fdisk -l | grep ’^Disk’
Your configuration may vary. For this example, we’ll assume the disk is at /dev/sdb.
You will then type:
# fdisk /dev/sdb
Follow the instructions in fdisk to create a new partition. Finally, use the mkfs command to format
the disk for Linux. Here, we use ext4.
# mkfs.ext4 /dev/sdb1
If you want to rename the drive, use the e2label command:
# e2label /dev/sdb1 /DataLocker
