"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"

A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

Some modern hard drives transparently encrypt all data with an internal key, which can be erased with a special secure erase command. Comes in handy for wiping drives without spending hours overwriting the enire disk.

How does a hard drive include enough processing power to encrypt/decrypt things without having any impact on read/write times?

[–] Eheran@lemmy.world 2 points 3 hours ago

The hardware variants have a chip onboard that can do that when the user enables it. Hence essentially no impact on performance.
