5 Disk Encryption

Most MP3 player users are not willing to allow others access to their personal information. Before letting some else use the MP3, all sensitive files should be deleted in order to preserve security which requires additional action on the owner’s part; (storing files, transferring them to the MP3 player and then deleting them to protect them from others).

This MP3 player offers a comfortable solution to this problem.

Using the tools included, the internal drive of this player can be partitioned into multiple drives. Select the partition in which to store your sensitive files and protect the entire partition by setting up a password. The partitions will be recognized by the operating system (Windows 2000 SP4 and higher) as two separate drives.

Note: to allow the system to show two different drives, select under SYSTEM SETTINGS / ONLINE MODE either Single Normal Disk or Single Encrypted Disk

Note: You can only encrypt one of the two drives.

Files stored to an encrypted drive can only be accessed when using the correct password.

Partitioning the Drive:

1. Connect the player to the PC via USB Port

2. Run the MP3 Disk Tool

3. At first the tool to format the dr ive will appear. Open the register PARTITION AND ENCRYPT and select a suitable size for the encrypted drive.

4. Activate the Option (User Name and Password).

5. Enter a password in the field; NEW PASSWORD

6. Reentering the password in the field; CONFIRM NEW PASSWORD

Page 21

ODYS X10

7. Click START to start partitioning the drive.

8. Reboot the system when prompted to do so.

9. After the system has rebooted, two new drives should appear (Windows 2000 SP4 and higher)

10. Open the encrypted drive. You will see three files: a normal file and two hidden files. The used memory space will register only 300 kb.

11. Open the normal file and run the RdiskDecrypt.exe.

12. Ent er the User Name and Password in the spaces provided.

When the user name and password are correct the drive will open!!!

Page 22

ODYS X10

Note: You must reenter the user name and password each time the player is connected to the PC before being able to enter the encrypted drive.

Notes: We recommend backing up the drive before partitioning. All data will be erased during partitioning.

Warning: Keep your User Name and Password in a safe place. Loosing or forgetting either the User Name or password will result in not being able to access the encrypted drive. In such a case, you will have to delete both partitions in order to create one major partition.
