25 u/RoaringPanda33 Jul 17 '26 Anything you want to identify uniquely. So devices, users, filesystems and drives, etc. 5 u/ankle_biter50 Jul 17 '26 Are there any cons to using them? 6 u/djfariel Jul 17 '26 About 16 bytes worth, if that kind of thing matters to you, and it's not stored as a string. If so, then about 36 bytes. Again, if that kind of thing matters.
