How about:
Get a list of all the attached volumes, names and sizes
See if the USB drive that you initialized is visible and see if it is the same size as what you configured it to be.
Then see that you are running from that volume.
Not fool proof but it's a start.
If you have a way to read a specific block on the drive, you could use that data to provide yet another check. Put a tiny 1K file on the drive, add your file to the drive. Delete the 1K file. It will look like there is just your drive but if they duplicate the whole thing to another USB key, that 1K blank space won't be there.
That sounds like a great idea. Any suggestions on how to read a specific block on a drive? Does Rev have a built in way to do this or would it require an external?
No idea how to do it but I don't think it is a USB thing, I think it would be an access the disk drive thing and your code would probably need to be aware of which OS it was running. Might be custom code to extend Rev per platform using standard OS calls, might be some access using a shell script. No idea.
