Formatting Destination and Accessory Drives
To perform an image duplication to or save logs to a drive, you must format the destination or
accessory drive with a file system that is recognizable by the TX1. The TX1 supports the
following destination drive file system formats: ExFAT, NTFS, EXT4, FAT32, or HFS+.
ExFAT is recommended for best compatibility when accessing drives with all modern operation
systems. EXT4 is recommended for use with Linux forensic tools. HFS+ is recommended for use
with MacOS forensic tools.
Encryption
The TX1 can encrypt destination and accessory drives using a password-based XTS-AES whole-
disk encryption. This Tableau-based encryption is compatible with the Tableau TD2u Forensic
Duplicator and the open source VeraCrypt utility.
Note: The encryption process overwrites the destination drive, so remember to
encrypt the destination drive before you copy data to it.
