This IS your PC's Data Guard Dog
I ordered this for my Asus X99-E WS/USB 3.1 Motherboard, and it's 100% compatible. In order for MS Bitlocker in your OS to work, you need this. Lock and encrypt your entire drive/s in case a burglary and your hardware stolen, people won't have access to your personal data. This module, you will find out that your data was lucky to be alive and safe without this.
Buy it, I command you, its the best investment you'll ever make for your data sake. I also use this product in conjunction with a Yubikey.
Make sure your MB and OS support it before purchase. MB should have TPM connection and OS should have Bitlocker. Other than that, it's one-time setup and forget about it, everything, all the security key/s and password/s for your driver/s will be encrypted in the module, and you only log onto OS as usual, the rest is done behind the curtain and transparent, no performance hit whatsoever.
You can encrypt all removable media drives, HDD (Internal/external), Flash drives, etc, they will automatically unlock when you connect them to the main system where the TPM module installed and yet password locked and impossible to access elsewhere.
Highly Recommended Quality Product for your ASUS Motherboard with a TPM connection.
