    Yup, and for SSDs specifically, I’ve read online that once you’ve stored info on the device unencrypted, then down the road you use a software tool like shred, there’s no way to guarantee nothing is left in the clear because of wear leveling, so it’s best to always encrypt them before we start storing anything on them.
