With more people carrying sensitive work files, backups, and personal data on portable SSDs and flash storage, security seems to be becoming a much bigger priority lately.
I recently came across a variuos industry analysis mentioning steady long-term growth in the encrypted flash drive market, which made me wonder how much storage buyers now value encryption and data protection features.
Do you actively look for encryption/security features when buying SSDs or portable storage?
Is hardware encryption actually important for average users, or mainly business users?
What matters most today: speed, reliability, capacity, or security?
Curious to hear what storage setup and security habits people here are using.
