Hardware Encryption for WDBFJK0040HBK-NESM

I need the rating for the hardware encryption (e.g. AES 256) for my 4.0TB My Book. Also, i have been unable to keep my PC from trying to boot from the My Book. I’ve tried the PC Startup Boot sequence screen and no luck. Any help would be appreciated.

Go into the BIOS and check the boot order. Put hard drive first or a CD or DVD player. It’s probably set to USB now.

Thanks Joe_S, tried that and it makes the boot process go into a loop which ultimately gives me a BSOD.
Also does anybody have an answer for my encryption question?
