some of the drives have firmware based encryption as well, but at
least one of them had an embarassing failure recently (key management
is a pain).

i'm pretty sure that 'modern' pgp (for a definition of 'modern' as
being ~10yrs) will use aes rather than their own thing any more.
there was a somewhat recent result about the aes key schedule w/
256bit keys, but i'm not enough of a theorhetician to know how
problematic this is.
