It doesnt make any sense

Probably you meant to say the drive should be formatted as ffs instead of ufs to prevent the read permission from bad guy?

1. ufs and ffs are identical.

2. Once he got the drive, mounting as ufs or ffs is his choice, you have no control here.

3. Also, once the bad guy physically possesses the drive, I dont think ufs, ffs or any fs can stop him from accessing the drive, as long as it is not encrypted, corrupted.

My 2 cents
