But.. isn't true that some Intel SSD Hardware Encryption is not (known to be) broken so far (unlike Samsung, WD, Crucial etc.)?

Have you been able to do a review of the code?

If yes: please share.

If not: why not?

Thanks!

(THAT, cite of tptacek, fulfilling someone's request, downvoted - with.. such empty*, hypothetical argument ?? - so far it's a libel - at least make some effort to proof otherwise in that case Mr FSFdiscreditor..

*"easier to hide backdoors" - so you don't need source to check the _real_ code - only more effort)

vs attack surface ? (having no reasons for powerful adversaries)
