   Modern CPU crypto hardware acceleration used by FDE is faster than your disk is unless it's a very very new NVME, so you probably won't notice

     OK #Fediverse I'm looking at maybe using #FDE ( Full Disk encryption ) on my home #Linux laptop.
     With it being a #ThinkPad P14s gen1 AMD Ryzen 7 pro, am I likely to notice any reduction in speed / drive access times ?
     Do most of you use FDE on your home laptops or not ? Am I probably best not to encrypt my setup ?

     Please boost for a wider response.

     Thanks in advance ❤️
