What's the Best Way to Encrypt My External Hard Drive?

December 9, 2025 1 answer
Asked by TechieNinja92
I have a Samsung SSD external hard drive and I use a Mac computer. The hard drive comes with Samsung's own setup software that allows password protection with encryption. Should I stick with that, or would it be better to use something like FileVault or another encryption option?

If your SSD comes with its own utilities, Iโ€™d recommend using that for encryption. Itโ€™s likely designed specifically for your drive.
