If the drive is having hardware trouble, it's already a crap shoot as to whether you'll get any data off of it. You should have some kind of data protection strategy (i.e., backups) in place to protect data on laptop hard drives, independent of whether or not whole disk encryption is in use. Whole disk encryption won't make data recovery from a failed disk any easier, for sure, but again, lack-of-backups would be the real problem there. -- Ben ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~
