HP Envy 13 Encryption

[freedomit]

We are interested in buying a couple of HP Envy 13, either to 13-d008na or 13-d007na model, however we need full disk encryption on them. Both laptops come with Windows 10 Home and TPM but im not sure what options there are for encryption as BitLocker doesn't work on Home Edition.

My questions...

1) Is the SSD in both models self encrypting so that a HDD Password would encrypt the drive?

2) Does any HP software come with them so encrypt the drives?

Any other ideas welcome?

Maybe I'm not exactly advise, but look at TrueCrypt it is very similar

Do you have any idea if they support connected standby aka InstantGo? If so they will support Device Encryption which is a version of BitLocker that ships with home. But only if you have TPM and InstantGo. The other obvious option is to upgrade to Win 10 Pro.

HP's website shows that you CAN get them with Windows 10 Pro preinstalled.
