Well, there's probably this little secret hidden folder labeled "Gundam" which in fact houses all the morally questionable media content.

Don't worry wolfking619, we won't discriminate, we understand the nature of your fascination, it's alright.

Did you create a volume that you are sending the encrypted data to?  If so you can most likely just kill the process with the possible result in corrupting the volume.  Delete the volume and start over with a thought out plan one what you really want to do.

Better plan would to create the volume first and to add small batches of file to be encrypted over a period of time.

Looking over the documentations some more - It looks like you picked the option to encrypt the partition/drive.  I would hazard to guess that your going to have to let it finish if you do not what to loose your data.  Its going to take some time for it to go through several TB of data.  I had a system do some Hash checks on 4 TB of files and it took about a week for it process it.  Go outside and enjoy the sun this week.

Corporate secrets, financial info, government leaks, illegal research/experiments, human trafficking info and child porn.

Those are things worth encrypting. I wonder what you filled your whole hard drive with that is worth encrypting.  ;D

edit: lol i didn't notice that Ace already answered my question...

question, why do you guys encrypt your files anyway? does it save you from viruses? does people hack you like on a daily basis? do you have a multi-million dollar blueprint on your harddisk or something?

i don't see the reason of encrypting it if its just a regular home PC >,>

AceHigh:
CP... probably CP  :D
