i use it so that i have encrypted drives. if a drive is lost or stolen,
nobody will be able to read anything.

Hell yes, I use it - on all of my Macs. It encrypts the entire startup
drive (or even external drives) so that the data on them cannot be read
without the key. I wouldn't dream of owning a Mac without FileVault
enabled.

File Valut 2, it's the subject.

He almost certainly knows that, he's just being passive-aggressive about 
wanting people to repeat the topic in the post itself.

colours of the aurora. And time was passing. To a creature not born
subject to time, it was a sensation not unakin to falling. --Lords and

Don't do that. Everything that is pertinent to your question should be
in the body of the messages.

Yes, I use File Vault 2 on all my computers that contain any personal
files. For example, the mini hooked up to the projector I have no
documents on, just an external raid filled with video files, so I never
bothered to enable FV2 on it.
