Most of the LTO-4 and LTO-5 drives support encryption in hardware. To 
make this work however there needs to be support for this in the backup 
software you're using.
This is necessary for determining and managing the keys used as well as 
enabling the encryption. Currently bacula is not able to do this, only a 
few commercial backup solutions offer this.
