Keyrings

I use keyrings to label things, particularly USB drives, but also other things such as bags, and... keys!
I have two sizes of keyrings. I have small (37 x 21mm) and large (50 x 31mm). Usually I use the small ones, but I use the large ones for labeling things which aren't USB drives (bags and such) and if I'm going to throw a USB drive in an archive box I usually put a large keyring on it first. I only have the large ones because I purchased them by mistake.
I have variously coloured keyrings. This is what the colours mean about the data on any USB drive attached, listed roughly in order of sensitivity of the content, from least sensitive to most:
| Colour | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Green | encrypted secrets |
| Purple | multimedia (audio, video, etc) |
| Yellow | vendor documentation and software that came in the box |
| White | boot disks |
| Blue | operating system install disks |
| Orange | unencrypted files including documents for sneakernet |
| Red (and Pink) | unencrypted secrets, vendor keys, license codes, etc |
