Question: I have an external hard drive and I partitioned it in 3 partitions. I want do something on one of these partitions, so nobody can format it (its data is important to me).What should I do?I use trueCrypt for this partition and encrypted all of the capacity but It still can be formatted.
Answer: I think what you are asking is impossible to achieve. If a user has admin access to the drive they will always be able to format it. ?The only way to achieve this is to not allow anyone else physical access to the drive. If someone plugs your drive into their machine they can do whatever they like.
