We talking about a T500 Lenovo notebook, but take the question generally.
So: I have a BIOS password, a Windows password, a Boot password.
Does that mean my HDD is hardware encrypted and I'm safe or I should use TrueCrypt too for 100% security? (If there is a way to get around the basic Lenovo/Windows stuff, I'll encrypt it with Truecrypt, concentrate on this.)
I don't think hard disk would be encrypted – Sathyajith Bhat – 2011-01-17T15:40:00.713
I'm trying to look around at Lenovo's / WD's website but they don't even mention encryption at hard-drive manufacturers. Is it that rare? – Apache – 2011-01-17T15:43:23.853
ThinkPads do support hardware drive encryption, but those drives are an expensive option you probably don't have. – Shinrai – 2011-01-17T16:40:41.340
