I’ve got to think that the only reason the new Air has come out is to mop up people who have the old Air and are looking to upgrade.

On computers running Windows, a software component called BitLocker handles the encryption of the computer's data. In Windows, the kind of encryption that BitLocker uses (i.e. hardware encryption or software encryption) is set via the Group Policy. If available, standard hardware encryption is used. For the affected models, the default setting must be changed so that only software encryption is used. This change does not solve the pro

Drives affected (fully tested so far) are Crucial (Micron) MX100, MX200 and MX300 internal hard disks; Samsung T3 and T5 USB external disks; Samsung 840 EVO and 850 EVO internal hard disks. Others may well be susceptible, but haven’t been fully tested yet.
