What is the best external hard drive in terms of privacy, security and storage capacity? Should I wait for a better one coming soon?
I’m looking for minimum 2tb of space (the more the merrier), don’t mind the cost

There are some with hardware-level encryption, they might be licensed as military ones though. All others are somewhat bust. How about ZFS or LUKS for filesystem encryption and not worry about the specs too much?
Very interesting, thanks for the suggestion! I hope it isn’t too hard to setup, I’m not tech savvy
I do it by following online guides, but not sure if there is an easier way. LUKS is like any filesystem you like on top of a logical volume on top of a volume group on top of cryptsetup container on top of a partition. ZFS is any filesystem you like inside a pool, and can support error correction and encryption. Someone else may know better about ZFS. For LUKS I found this except it doesn’t cover crypttab (automatic decryption when disk is inserted), and for zfs this is probably the standard point of reference. There’s also stuff like veracrypt but I don’t know how it works. LUKS is only for Linux I think, zfs might work for windows also - not sure.
Ok nice research, although it seems to be as complicated as I thought… I’ll still follow the guide, thanks!
