If it is distinguishable, then it has no point.
If it is indistinguishable then you run the risk of losing data in the nested container if you copy enough data (accidentally) on the outer container.
Not sure which is the case with veracrypt though.
- ikeboy 7y agoIt's indistinguishable but there's a way to put in both passwords while using the outer container so it prevents overwriting the inner one.
- aasasd 7y agoIIRC free space on the outer volume has to be continuous―normally at the end of the fs. I.e. the volume will look like it's not used too extensively. Which I guess may or may not look suspicious depending on your claimed use-case.
