Does BestCrypt create ghost drives on the disk or does it only encrypt files on the disk?

0

BestCrypt creates and supports encrypted logical disks. These BestCrypt disks are visible as regular disks with corresponding drive letters (for example, D:, K:, Z:, i.e. with any drive letter that is not used by other system devices). The data stored on a BestCrypt disk is stored in the container file. A container is a file, so it is possible to backup a container, move or copy it to other disk (CD/DVD, network, etc) and continue to access your encrypted data using BestCrypt. Any free drive letter in the system may be used to mount and to open an encrypted file-container for access. When the virtual disk is opened, you can read and write data as if it was a conventional removable disk.
