Usb Device Id Vid 14cd Pid 1212 Link -

Some low-cost mice have been known to contain keystroke loggers in hardware. This is extremely rare but possible. Enterprises should treat any unbranded USB device as untrusted if sourced from non-secure supply chains.

RIWA Technology is a known original device manufacturer (ODM) for low-cost computer peripherals. They do not typically sell directly to consumers under their own brand; instead, they manufacture components for resellers and generic unbranded products.

Devices using this VID/PID typically share these physical traits: usb device id vid 14cd pid 1212 link

Every USB device contains a unique identifier pair consisting of a Vendor ID (VID) and a Product ID (PID). The USB Implementers Forum (USB-IF) allocates VIDs to manufacturers. The combination 14CD:1212 frequently appears in system logs (e.g., dmesg on Linux, Device Manager on Windows) and vendor lists. This paper identifies the hardware origin and typical implementation of this device.

The VL700 is a USB 3.0 device. USB 3.0 draws more power than 2.0. Some low-cost mice have been known to contain

In Linux, the device is handled by the usb-storage kernel module. The system typically identifies the device correctly but may report it as a "Generic" storage device.

Dmesg Output Example: When plugged in, you might see entries similar to: Known Quirks (UAS/ASP): Some variations of this chipset

usb 1-1: New USB device found, idVendor=14cd, idProduct=1212
usb 1-1: New USB device strings: Mfr=1, Product=2, SerialNumber=3
usb-storage 1-1:1.0: USB Mass Storage device detected
scsi host4: usb-storage 1-1:1.0

Known Quirks (UAS/ASP): Some variations of this chipset have compatibility issues with the UAS (USB Attached SCSI) driver in Linux, which can cause slow transfer speeds or connection drops. If you experience extremely slow write speeds on Linux, you may need to apply a quirk to force the device into USB Mass Storage Bulk-Only Transport (BOT) mode rather than UAS.

To fix slow speeds (apply quirk): You can add the VID:PID to the usb-storage.quirks kernel parameter. usb-storage.quirks=14cd:1212:u
