Apple iMac Pro and Secure Storage
The unique pairing here provides some very important security properties that prevent the memory chips that comprise the SSD itself from being physically removed from the system and connected to a different system, or from having their contents extracted from the chips and flashed onto SSD chips in another system.Yet more sadness for data recovery companies and those who've lost files and want their services. Full disk encryption has been around for a long time and, well-implemented, will let you recover the encrypted data to transfer to new media (so the DR company can't see your secrets either, but you haven't lost anything.)IMHO encryption should be opt-in --- contrary to what those advocating it think, not every piece of data I have needs to be encrypted, and I certainly have plenty more personal files that I would rather have become publicly accessible than lost forever. It's a tradeoff between "if someone hacks in, they can read my data too" and "if something goes wrong, no one can read my data, including myself" and I think this tradeoff needs to be a more explicit choice.
