And last I looked into this, nvme doesn’t support edrive encryption. And it doesn’t really matter very much any more with all of the encryption accelerators in modern cpus. Someone please correct me on either account if I’m wrong!

Damn, wish I knew this before I returned the WD for a Samsung 980 Pro. I just checked and hardware encryption isn’t even turned on and I would have to wipe to enable it :(
