The whole point of disk based FDE is that it doesn't require support in the filesystem. So I have no plans to change ZFS to support drive based FDE. Note that FDE has some very significant disadvantages compared to ZFS Crypto but also some advantages. I'll be putting up some articles on my blog (http://blogs.sun.com/darren/) about this soon. -- Darren J Moffat
