Oct 29, 2014 at 19:41 | comment | added | ErlVolton | @NathanC Yes so I understand that TPM is a chip relating to hardware-based encryption the question was "Is TPM the thing I need?" which I have now simplified to "what is the feature I need?" so as not to confuse people by making the question about TPM somehow. Thanks for your help! | |
Oct 29, 2014 at 19:31 | comment | added | Nathan C | @ErlVolton "What's TPM?" is a question answerable by a bit of search engine prowling (it's a physical chip on the motherboard, by the way). Drive encryption is the same ...you just have to look. | |
Oct 29, 2014 at 19:29 | comment | added | ErlVolton | @HopelessN00b You already did a really good job of letting me know you think my question is low quality. I've seen the responses other people have gotten from Samsung and they are complete unsatisfactory so I have no intention of wasting my time there. Surely there is a site with people who have experience using the encryption on these drives where "Halp how do I encrypt my drive and whats TPM" will be on topic. | |
Oct 29, 2014 at 19:28 | comment | added | Michael Hampton Mod | @HopelessN00b I dunno, I'd personally like to know more about these drives, if only so I can evaluate whether they're secure enough and how on earth I'm supposed to manage them. | |
Oct 29, 2014 at 19:25 | comment | added | HopelessN00b | @ErlVolton It's not a question that's nearly good enough to be moved either, to be honest, and that's even ignoring the obvious "call Samsung support and ask them" answer. | |
Oct 29, 2014 at 19:24 | comment | added | Michael Hampton Mod | What's to debate? You can always edit your question. | |
Oct 29, 2014 at 19:23 | comment | added | ErlVolton | That make's a lot of sense, I believe it is on-topic but instead of debating about it I'll ask to have it moved once I figure out where it might be better received | |
