Is it possible to check if a BIOS supports password entry for a self-encrypting SSD/harddrive?
- by therobyouknow
I'm considering purchasing a SSD that has built-in hardware encryption / self-encrypting drive that provides its own full drive encryption.
What can I do to check that the BIOS on my machine will support it?
Background research so far
Research on self-encrypting drives - good article below, but I would need to know if the BIOS can support it:
