Flash Drive User’s Manual 2
1. Introduction
The Flash Drive works as a friendly, secure, and lightweight removable mass
storage device disk. It plugs through the USB port so your host computer will
immediately detect and configure the removable drives without re-starting computer
again.
Unlike most USB Flash Drive, it also comes with a security feature that allows you
to require a password upon plugging the disk before use. This USB Flash Drive is
partitioned into a 1-Mbytes accessory disk and main disk. Users have to enter the
security password to gain access into the main disk. The 1MB accessory disk (no
password) can also be used to pre-load the driver and utility program of the USB
Flash Drive.
