K klaus New Member Sep 4, 2012 8 0 0 Jul 22, 2013 #2 Look LSI removed 840 Pro from its compatibility list http://www.lsi.com/downloads/public.../megaraid_value_feature_interop_list_sas2.pdf On that list they specify whether certain HDDs are SafeStore verified, but do not specify if any SSD are verified for the same feature. Do any SSDs work with their encryption feature?

It needs to comply with a particular standard called the TCG Enterprise SSC. However, we'd be lucky if consumer SSDs even supported TCG OPAL SSC. The Samsung 840 Pro certainly doesn't, as per Protect Your Privacy: Security & Encryption Basics | Samsung SSD In fact, the only HDDs I can find that support this standard are Seagate Secure SEDs: Seagate Secure Self-Encrypting Drives with LSI MegaRAID SafeStore Encryption Services for Servers Protect your Data with Seagate Secure Self-Encrypting Drives | Seagate Click to expand...

K Krobar Member Aug 25, 2012 54 10 8 Aug 23, 2013 #5 The Samsung is unlikely to be TCG1.5 Sapphire compliant and is more likely Opal or TCG 2.0.
