An intermediate solution could be HDD password locking. Password is check within HDD embeded controler so remains even if drive is mounted on another system. To get rid of it, you bearly have to reflash controler or change electronics. Encrypted volumes remains to me the best solution, and it is quite easy to achieve. -- http://www.netexit.com/~sid/ PGP KeyID: 157E98EE FingerPrint: FA62226DA9E72FA8AECAA240008B480E157E98EE >> Hi!
