Timdphotos Posted May 5, 2010 Share Posted May 5, 2010 Is there any way to Password Encrypt an External HD so if you put it into a computer it requires a password to access the files. I tried True Crypt but it requires you to have TrueCrypt to Mount the Hard Drive and I need to be able to plug the Hard Drive into computers that do not have Truecrypt. Does anyone out there know how to do this? I am not instantly resorting to posting here, I HAVE looked on google for a solution but haven't found one.

Timdphotos Posted May 7, 2010 Author Share Posted May 7, 2010 That's not really what I need, I needed something that would prompt for a password straight away.
