    The DB itself is encrypted (usually).

    And FDE wouldn’t have helped if the disk was currently mounted and the admin logged in; LEO attempts to preserve things as they are, they don’t just unplug the hardware and walk away with it.

      Which DBs support encryption? Genuinely curious, since I usually use full-disk encryption and so often don’t have a need to configure encryption in individual services.

      they don’t just unplug the hardware and walk away with it.

      Huh, I thought that’s exactly what they do during a raid. TIL.
