Hello all
I currently bought the WD Red 3TB and I was wondering what steps I need to take in order to encrypt some files. Im a newb at this so please any help would be appreciated.
Internal Disk Drives must be encrypted through external means.Western Digital does not provide or recommend any specific software which has the ability to password protect data on hard drives. There are many third party encryption utilities available through retail stores that have the ability to password protect files and folders on a hard drive. For more information on these utilities, please contact your local computer related retail store.
If you have windows 7 ultimate or windows 8 pro they have bit locker that you can use. Otherwise I would suggest looking on cnet.com under downloads and search for encryption programs. Some are free or very cheap.
