Bad article

This article is not written in a style suitable for Wikipedia. It looks more like magazine article based on a couple of press releases. There are a lot of terms used but not explained

Examples: FDE, OPAL, Enterprise standards, attack vector, Enterprise SAS, bridge and chipset, Stonewood, Flagstone.

The article should start with an explanation of what the topic is, not from where it's available. Vendor names should be removed, or moved to a less prominent place at the end of the article. There are disadvantages with hardware-based full disk encryption, but they aren't mentioned. Stated facts needs reference.

Questionable facts: "HDD FDE is available ... via the Trusted Computing Group." Perhaps it wasn't the authors's intention that I have to buy such drives via TCG, but it says so.
