Summary: "While the ASUS Eee PC 901 doesn't have its solid-state disk
drives encrypted by default, if you are storing any potentially
sensitive information on this netbook -- or any mobile device for that
matter -- you really should encrypt the data. When you lose a mobile
device or it has been stolen, it can be a nightmare if your banking
information was stored on there or even just passwords to your Internet
accounts. However, what is theperformance cost for fully encrypting a
hard drive on one of these Intel Atom computers? In this article we are
looking at the performance impact of fully encrypting the solid-state
storage versus an unencrypted LVM within Ubuntu Linux."
