What do you want to do? Transparently encrypt the drive contents?

Make your pick here if you are using Windows: http://www.thefreecountry.com/security/encryption.shtml

Cryptoloop devices have been a part of Linux for some time.

It's for an external drive.There is personal data on it. All I want is if i lost the drive or if someone happens to look at the content, I don't want them to see.

Thanks

If you are looking for a good way to protect your data, try PGP.

If you wanna do the whole drive, they are coming out with a product for that.
