    Question HD Encryption?

    Okay, so I've been into this computer security thing for a while now. I've seen firsthand how easy it is to grab a passwd or sam file from a linux osx or Windows box. I've experienced the dreadful fright that occurs after loosing usb drives with sensitive data on them. It's a shame,I know, but I'm just now figuring that I should go ahead and start encrypting my data. I'm going to start fresh (Fedora DVD iso downloading right now) tomorrow and I'm just wondering what you guys use to encrypt your hard drives and usb drives. Commercial or free it doesn't matter at the moment I just want to get some advice people who their stuff. ...you guys :-)

    "Do you know why the system is slow?" they ask

    "It's probably something to do with..." I look up today's excuse ".. clock speed"
