nexus 6 broken screen

[Stephen Partington]

I encrypted previous devices with bot bad and good results. I currently
running  BitLocker on a Dell with SSD and above seeing only a minor change
in performance and with the speed of an SSD it's still quite usable. On
Android devices it really depends on its underlying flash performance. On
an Asus transformer it was awful. On my Droid DNA it was imperceptible.

The nexus 6 is on my list..
