I use PGP and have for years, works out pretty well!

I wouldn't use disk encryption on low end SSD drives as it slows them down a LOT. (computer often freeze for 15-30 seconds)

With a good 7200 RPM disk (maybe 10k rpm for stationary pc's ) you will probably never notice it.

fill up the computer with lots of RAM to minimize temporary disk writes

Then again I might be wrong and it might have made my laptop slow as fuck compared to how it should be
