Hi, I want to use my 2TB silicon power a80 HDD with my Macbook's own OS X and bootcamp Windows 8.1 or probably Windows 10 and I want to encrypt the hard drive. My preferred format is NTFS and since I have tuxera ntfs installed on my mac, I have no problem with writing data on any NTFS Drive.
I have a Western Digital My Passport ultra and since it uses a hardware encryption method, and the software for unlocking it is self-contained, I have no problem using it with both Operating systems whatsover.
I tried to divide the a80 it into 2 partitions,one for Mac (HFS+) and one for Windows (NTFS) and I used Filevault to encrypt the HFS+ partition and BitLocker to encrypt the NTFS one but it was kinda useless because windows cannot read the Filevault encrypted partition, and Mac can't read the BitLocker encrypted one.
I tried Veracrypt and I didn't like it one bit.
What I simply need is a cross-platform, self-contained encryption tool to encrypt my HDD. Something like the WD My Passport (I know it's different)
What do you guys think I should do? I just know that there MUST be a way to do this.
