  • disk drive encryption speed
    Having the encryption technology in the disk drive is much faster than software solutions and is not prone to eavesdropping and keylogging attacks. Passwords are entered during computer BIOS start.

    In the HDD solutions I've read about, the 3DES/AES encryption is done in hardware at full disk data rate and adds no measurable access time or latency penalties to performance, so it is transparent to the user.
