Is it possible to create a harddrive which will automatically encrypt all received data via hardware without losing much in speed, or are we forever doomed to use software methods?

retard
how are you supposed to decrypt it?

Why???

Modern CPUs have dedicated AES hardware anyway

That's aint no thing man. Check this shit out: https://videos.toypics.net/view/4348/xl-trex-hilted-2/

>>53456735
It encrypts and decrypts itself within the microprocessor
>>
>>53457162
then anyone with it could just plug it in and the shit would be decrypted.

that's retarded.
>>
>>53457162
and what stops anyone from taking the HDDand using it in their computer?

SSDs encrypt all data upon write. When you format one you're not overwriting the data but actually changing to a different encryption key, rendering all current data useless

For you.

I don't know anything about SSD but that's how LUKS works in Linux. cryptsetup luksErase deletes the keys and the disk contents remain the same. I think what remains looks like random bits.

That's not true lol

as opposed to the other guy's well cited claim.

>>53458469
Out of two sourceless claims, the one that doesn't type like a twelve year old is more credible.

They already exist, but I forget the name for the technology. It's not experimental, you can go buy one right now. They're pretty cheap too.

Oh, here we go: SED - Self-Encrypting Drive.

Something like this within the harddrive?
>>
1. Yes.
2. Your drive probably does this already
Drives have AES-256 hardware acceleration nowadays.
If you want to trust NSA-256 hardware that's up to you though.
>>
>>53456617
But this already exists for like the past 10 years.
