While the most popular interface currently is USB 2.0, it makes no difference to CE-Secure what interface is used as long as Windows itself is able to see the external data storage device and assigns a system drive letter to it. We have tested on USB 1.1 & 2.0, FireWire 400/800, eSATA & express card, PCMCIA and flash card slots built into a computer. As long as Windows sees the drive, CE-Secure is good to go! Don’t forget, if a Vault is located on a piece of CD or DVD media, it also can be unlocked, given the same circumstances as above.
