@glitcher32 I don鈥檛 trust any hardware encryption. Look at the vulnerabilities in WD鈥檚 portable drives with hardware encryption for example. The only useful thing about it is (usually) cross-platform compatibility and maybe speed (but most CPUs have good encryption anyways nowadays). I just use FileVault because I鈥檓 on macOS only but if you鈥檙e on Linux or need cross-platform compatibility VeraCrypt works well.
