Summary:
The documentation page demonstrates a subtle Windows bias by referencing BitLocker (a Windows-specific encryption tool) as the default for software-encrypted disks, and by mentioning BitLocker-encrypted disks before describing hardware-encrypted disks that are suitable for Linux. There are no explicit Linux command examples or Linux-specific workflows, and the only mention of Linux is in the context of hardware-encrypted disks being 'well suited' for Linux systems. No Linux tools or patterns are described.
Recommendations:
- Provide explicit examples or references for both Windows and Linux workflows, including how to unlock and mount disks on Linux systems.
- Mention Linux-compatible encryption and disk management tools (e.g., cryptsetup, udisks) alongside BitLocker.
- Ensure that Linux use cases and instructions appear with equal prominence and detail as Windows equivalents.
- Include a section or quickstart guide specifically for Linux users, detailing the steps and tools required for data transfer.
- Clarify any limitations or differences in experience between Windows and Linux environments.
