The theory:
Samsung specifies that their SSD encrypts each data with AES by default. So if I choose a HDD password in my bios, I can protect… Continue reading Samsung SSD 840 Evo Disk-Encryption
I’m in search of a free/libre software that is able to handle OPAL (2.0)-compliant SEDs (i.e. manage the setting of Pre-Boot Authentification (PBA) environment, encryption keys…).
It could be a utility that runs as a live image (thus OS… Continue reading Free/Libre software to handle TCG OPAL 2.0-compliant Self-Encrypting Drives (SEDs)?
