That's great....until the system hosting the drive fails. Then it's a real
bad thing. Same problem on WinVista encrpytion. They're tying the encrypt to
the freekin motherboard. Great, unless you lose your motherboard and want to
get you data off via another machine/usb enclosure.

Would much, much rather see a USB key handle the encrpytion, and be copyable
only by an administrator.
