So LaCie uses XP which already had previous problems when, regardless of encryption strength, the embedded system (Windows XP Embedded) still allowed the data to be viewed and copied without the key.

They could have used any Linux, but no, they had to choose XP.
It will cost them more and it will cause us more troubles. I'm not gonna buy for sure.
