    Most of SSD already has good encryption methods

    Unless you purchase a SED-non FIPS or FIPS SSD, no, they don’t

    and an easy way to safely wipe data without re-writing each byte.

    ATA Secure Erase is a god send for SSD.

      Win 11 comes pre-installed with newer computers, which normally has the latest SED mechanism available. Isn’t it? I don’t see the need to overthink how to encrypt data if there is a method that doesn’t slower your disk usage already.
