Using V-Safe 100 Security Application
(Supported on Windows 2000, XP or VISTA Operating Systems only)
Requires Administrative Privileges:
The V-Safe 100 Security Application enables you to setup an adjustable size Privacy Zone to secure and encrypt sensitive data. All Privacy
Zone data is encrypted with powerful hardware based 256-bit AES encryption algorithms to prevent unauthorized access.
The V-Safe 100 Security Application has been pre-loaded on your Store ‘n’ Go Pro for your convenience. Locate the "V-Safe 100.exe" file
on the drive and double click it to launch. Follow the on-screen prompts to set up your password, password hint and select the size
of your privacy zone. Note: Formatting or resizing the privacy zone on your Store ‘n’ Go Pro will erase all data. Copy any files you do not
wish to erase to another
To logout, double click the "Logout Privacy Zone" icon placed on your Store ‘n’ Go Pro. To login again, double click the V-Safe icon placed

drive before formatting or resizing the privacy partition. Enter your password to access the privacy zone.
Important Note:
The Public Zone provides for easy storing or sharing of non-sensitive data, while the Privacy Zone is used to protect and encrypt sensitive
data from unauthorized access. Access to Privacy Zone data is password controlled, and requires administrative privileges. Therefore,
in some PC environments, you may need to obtain assistance from IT in order to temporarily allow administrative privileges required for
Privacy Zone access.
Passwords:
When choosing a password, it is recommended to make it easy to remember but difficult to guess. At least 6 characters are recommended.
Avoid names, words in dictionary, and other references that may be easy to guess. Use the optional hint feature if you think you will have
trouble remembering the password. Make sure your hint is not too specific or you may make it easier for an unauthorized party to guess
your password. Alternatively you may retain a copy of your password in a separate and secure location for safekeeping.
Maximum Number of Failed Attempts:
In order to help safeguard Privacy Zone data from automated brute force attacks or attempts to guess the password, the V-Safe 100
security application will terminate after the 5th failed login attempt, and require the Store ‘n’ Go Pro to be removed and re-inserted.
To Speed System Performance (VISTA Operating Systems only):
Insert USB drive, select “Speed up my system” from the on screen menu, and select size of ReadyBoost cache. If the onscreen menu
does not appear, simply right click on the corresponding drive letter in “my computer”, select the ReadyBoost Tab, and select “use this
device” and select size of ReadyBoost cache.
To disable ReadyBoost (VISTA Operating Systems only):
From “My Computer”, right click "Drive Letter", select properties, select ReadyBoost tab, select “Do not use this device”.
Note: Changing from Public Zone to Private Zone or vice versa while using the ReadyBoost will disable the feature. It is not recommended
to setup the ReadyBoost feature while logged into the Privacy Zone.

Store ‘n’ Go Pro’s LED status indicator provides the following information:
LED Blinking: Device in use.
Note: Do not remove the device while the LED is blinking, as data may be corrupted or lost.
LED Off after Blinking: Device connected and ready for use or in low power suspended mode.
