With TrueCrypt you can have a file that becomes a drive letter when
mounted. If the unit is not mounted, you can backup the file and its
whole content is encrypted (and it is impossible to tell it is a
TrueCrypt container). When mounted, its contents are accessed through
the drive letter as if it were really there.

You can also encrypt an entire partition, whose contents become readable
only if the partition is mounted via TrueCrypt.

The third option is to encrypt the entire drive, where the only
unencrypted portion is TrueCrypt's bootloader. You can boot the system
only after entering the passphrase. It is not possible to tell even the
operating system that you use without mounting it first.
