which shouldn't really be there (it's not intended to be a comparative article). I've had misgivings about the whole "Similar/Competing
Products" section since I was prompted to include it for exactly this reason. It might be better to simply move it out into a separate article comparing hardware/software full disk encryption, or possibly expanding the current software full disk encryption article. If, instead, that section is kept, then it probably does need to be expanded out to list what significant features the IronKey has or lacks that differentiate it from other similar solutions (software or hardware), otherwise comparison becomes fairly meaningless. I feel that incomplete information can be worse than none. Either way, I appreciate your input for this. —

I haven't once tried to hide or remove any information regarding this, I'm actually glad that someone put in the initial basic edit about software based comparison and just felt it needed further clarification. —

I'm not trying to misrepresent anything, simply trying to stick to the facts. I fully agree that different solutions offer different functionality--TrueCrypt's hidden partitions is one I've always considered a winning argument in certain cases.

Software based full disk encryption gives the the same functionality as the Basic model IronKey. The
Personal and Enterprise models add a lot of extra features that require more than just adding disk based encryption, and hence are

You're misrepresenting things because software solutions also offer significant functionality that ironkey doesn't. You're giving a one-sided view of them
