Your experience with TrueCrypt volumes
« on: March 11, 2013, 03:58:34 PM »

What's your experience with TrueCrypt volumes on the DNS-320?

I think about creating a 3000 GB container. Is that even recommendable? Any limits I should know of?

Thanks!  :)

Personally I opt for smaller size container in the range of 100 to 200GB which also made backing up much easier. And do take note that if the drive start to develop bad sectors and you use the entire drive space as volume, chances of accessing and retrieving data from it will be very slim.
