This tool will not be needed. It is required for TCG OPAL compliant drives to set the keys during boot. It uses a small unencrypted space of the drive. sedutil is for booting PCs.[/quote]
there’s also a sedutil-cli tool, you can use it like hdparm to unlock a drive after the system is booted

Plain hdparm setting the key should be enough for most SSD.[/quote]
Well, some people say it’s enough to set the security password, to enable encryption on SED SSDs, others say it won’t… but nobody knows for sure and it’s also unknown where the password is stored, how it’s implemented by the different vendors, and so on… i personally won’t trust in that.
