I am running xubuntu but this is really applicable for any distro as they likely use the same underlying mechanism.
I encrypted all my hardware for security purposes, but now I am wondering about the under-the-hood implementation, what algorithms do they use, how big is the key size, has it been audited, et cetera.
I run PCIe/NVME SSDs like Samsung 870 and it's reasonably fast. The boot time + decryption went from 30 seconds to over a minute. But still nowhere near as long as when I had HDD. Just curious if anyone else does this and how good/bad does it perform.
