The 77th Infrantry Division would be the counterpoint to “older conscripts are harder to train and can’t keep up”.

If you set up hardware encryption, be sure to change the master password and set the security level to maximum.

Be aware, this password is different than the Physical Secure ID (PSID) printed on the front of the disk. PSIDs are used when the release to reset command doesn’t work, typically due to key issues, and the drive gets “locked”.

You use the PSID to run a revert to factory defaults command, unlocking the drive. Since this triggers the drive to release its’ key, the drive is considered “cryptographically erased” when you do this.

If you revert the drive, data on it is unrecoverable.

If you’re going to revert a drive, I suggest using a QR Code reader to get the PSID off the drive. Some venders are sadists with the font they choose making it so much fun to figure out if it’s a 1, l i I I O or 0…

It sounds like the article is an update to the age old performance issue discussions between hardware and software RAID solutions.

If you use a software solution for anything where there’s a dedicated hardware solution, the software solution is always slower due to CPU overhead.

Article recommendation boils down to: If you’re going to use encryption, and you want your full disk speed, use a hardware encryption solution. In their test their hardware supported OPAL.

No, they don’t.

SSDs, unless you buy a specifically encryption supported drive, are not encrypted. If it doesn’t indicate SED, SED non-FIPS or a FIPS certification level, the drive doesn’t have an encryption circuit.

Most of SSD already has good encryption methods

Unless you purchase a SED-non FIPS or FIPS SSD, no, they don’t

and an easy way to safely wipe data without re-writing each byte.

ATA Secure Erase is a god send for SSD.

Ah, another hexbear genius that thinks Putin and his cabinet would survive if they dropped a nuke.

If you recognize the language, use that. If it’s in a language you don’t recognize, you could put it into google translate and see what it shows up as.

If the language on the root post is your native language, then just set it for your account from undetermined to your native language.

Try setting your language in your account to whatever the root thread language is.

Copy thread url, paste it into an incognoto mode browser that’s not logged into the instance. Compare what you see with your account settings and decide if you need to make changes or not.

Depends on if you have a 3D printer

The Tankies here are hilarious.

The “reporter” worked for RIA, a state-owned news agency. He was a propagandist, not a reporter.

There’s no evidence he was killed by cluster munitions beyond Russia’s statement. We’ve seen the accuracy of those from the beginning.

This is a consequence of Russia’s own actions. They’re to blame for all of this.
