Deep dives
Windows 11 Pro default encryption slows down SSD speed
Windows 11 Pro has software encryption as the default setting, causing a significant performance drop on SSDs. Tom's Hardware tests showed that software encryption led to a 45% decrease in SSD speed. Interestingly, hardware encryption can be faster than no encryption at all. Unfortunately, Windows 11 Pro does not provide a clear opt-out option and switching to hardware encryption requires reinstalling the OS on the SSD.
