Buying used titan one. Precautions/advice? Help!!

Postby Ctuna2000 » Fri Mar 12, 2021 6:50 pm

Hi, so I bought a titan one USB online. It's used, good condition.

Obviously I should take some kind of precautions before using it. Like, if the previous owner did something malicious and put a virus or something on the usb.

How could I wipe it before using?

Any advice?

Thanks!

Anyone?

Just need to know what to do when I receive it, as it's used.

No need to wipe it, just plug it in and check for updates.

Its not a usb storage device where you can copy over an exe and modify the auto run config.

It can store scripts, that's it. Scripts for the device aren't malicious.
