ENDPOINT - FDE SUPPORT DISK

[Pedro_Sentinela]

I haven't found in the FDE documentation or ATGR which disk types are FDE compatible. Example (SATA SSD, NVME or M2). can anybody help me?

I cant find that info other, so very good question indeed. I would open an official TAC case to get a confirmation about it.

Clients must NOT have:

• RAID.

• Partitions that are part of stripe or volume sets.

• Hybrid Drive or equivalent Drive Cache Technologies. See sk107381.

• The root directory that is compressed (compressed sub-directories of the root directory are supported).

@Chris_Atkinson ...all good resources and I looked at some of those, but I dont believe any of them sadly answer @Pedro_Sentinela initial question, though sk 108092 does provide the list tested by CP.

thank you for the documentation!

If I were you, I would definitely open TAC case to get an official answer.
