What sort of overhead are we talking about? Is there a way to measure it?
Is there a way to determine whether or not your laptop can handle the
encryption process?

If I were encrypting my laptop for the first time, what is the process? I
presume you load the encryption software (but not to the hard drive?) and
encrypt the entire partition or drive. In actual use, I presume that there
is something that decrypts a document/spreadsheet/.exe prior to use.

Can I boot from an encrypted drive? Or do I have to have a bootable
partition and then do all my work in an encrypted partition?

I have a few questions, as you can see . . .

Is anyone encrypting their laptop hard drive? If so, is it
corporate-mandated or personal choice? What product would/do you use to
do this?

TIA,

Steve
