protecting hard disk from access - Geass - Feb 20, 2018

I was wondering how do you secure your hard drive from access?
Is there something reliable and safe to use in order to make sure my files will not be visible?


I didn't knew where to post it and since it kinda seem like white hat for security part so I post it here.


Thanks in advance!! 🤝

Edit:
I am talking for outside hard drive, not the one with the windows, I dont care for this one :D

I have found about StorageCrypt but I don't want to do anything without getting advise from people who actually know stuff :)

So you are looking for something that will keep the files more protected? I am not really understanding the question.

Nato approved #Becrypt CPA Disk Protect is what I use at work, not seen anything break the latest iteration.

Encrypt with TrueCrypt, create virtual or protected file system, password protect HDD in UEFI settings

Something that the people from my house can't see the files.
To be protected by password or something, it doesn't need to be something non-hackable since I am the only one who knows how to use a computer properly.

Just use a portable hard drive to store your files. A big one at that
