I have some questions about turning on full disk encryption on a new Mac...
1.) Can I turn on FDE early in the setup process and let it run while I am doing lots of other set up and rebooting, or does FDE need to be turned on and then left alone until it is done?
2.) If I use Carbon Copy Cloner to clone my Mac to an external drive before FDE is done encrypting my internal drive, how will that impact my clone to the external drive?
3.) If my internal drive is fully encrypted, and then I use CCC to clone my internal drive to an external drive, will my external drive have FDE on it by virtue of being a clone of an already fully encrypted internal drive?
4.) Any other advice on this topic?
