    I haven't had any problem reformatting a Targus 128 MB USB drive with NTFS
    and encrypting files with EFS. So long as the drive is recognized by the OS
    I think you should be able to use any format on any of the different drives
    ...

    Subject: USB memory supporting NTFS?

       There are a lot of USB memory sticks supporting the
    various FAT- formats, but is there any that supports NTFS?

       I'd like to find some kind of USB-attachable memory
    (short of a full hard drive) that supports NTFS
    and so allows information stored to be encrypted by
    Windows EFS.

       Or is the only way to use some kind of disk encryption
    software, and install it on all systems I want to use
    the USB memory stick on?
