IronKey VP80ES External SSD User Manual – Rev. 1.0
Linux Compatibility and Configuration
The VP80ES is OS independent, capable of being run with 100% compatibility on most systems. For
optimal Linux or Unix based system compatibility, we recommend using at least the Linux 2.6.31 Kernel
(released 9 September 2009), which implemented the xHCI specification for USB 3.0.
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 /VaultPrivacy80ES
In this case, VaultPrivacy80ES is an example of a drive name.
