I have a client that demands that I destroy the FDE laptop hard disks between users. So, when one employee leaves the company and I have to get their laptop ready for a new hire I have to destroy the hard drive and build out with a new one. Seems like a waste but we haven't been able to talk the business owner out of this practice. So..
Lenovo discontinued their FDE drives and all the suppliers have zero in stock. Problem is they tell me they just have to order from manufacturer, I wait a week or so and they reply that they can't get them anymore.
I've been looking for a couple months now. I can find refurbished ones but nothing new. Just wondering if anyone else has this same problem or if there's an explanation to this phenomenon. I find it hard to believe that software encryption could ever replace hardware encryption.
