Dear specialists,

There once were good reasons to be concerned about SSD life cycles, but
modern SSD's are much more robust, so now there are other things to
worry about like your SSD ending up in the hands of a "bad actor",
some filesystem glitch blocking access to encrypted data, etc.
 
By other words. Does enabling encryption enforces much more write
requests on file system when comparing with not encrypted partitions?


Thank all engaged Fedora kernel developers for encryption kernel module.
