Can the encryption be disabled? This will be used as an automatic backup for a NAS. I heard horror stories about the drive dying and the data being inaccessible because of the encryption.

Sorry just saw this. It was wrapped in plastic, no stickers sealing it. Based on the above serial number info, it's probably a white. Once I have time to hook it up I'll report back which it is.
