Data Encryption Question

[Nexillus]

Hello all!

Quick opinionated question to see what people think, I am curious to what people's thoughts are. If you have advantages or disadvantage for either please feel free to post your experiences too!

For data encryption would you recommend full data encryption from startup or select data encryption on the computer/NAS such as documents and sensitive information.

I am going to be doing this to my NAS and computers. I am on the fence on which one I should implement.

Make a threat model of the threats you're trying to protect against and plan your mitigations that way. Which is best is useless if you're not sure what you're trying to protect against.
