Does this affect performance? Esp for things like photoshop?

  I don't use photoshop, nor can I offer anything other than my perception but I haven't noticed performance being reduced in any way.

    As for performance, per DiskCryptor's wiki (windows only): "On the Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600 CPU, data encryption speed amounts to 104 MB/s per core. The maximum speed of reading the data from a single hard disk equals to 80 MB/s so it can work with up to 5 different disks without loss of performance, when using the aforementioned type of processor. In case if your disks are not operating under a constant high load, then it is possible to work with even higher number of disks, and on a weaker system, without losing the performance." I would assume this is true for all encryption schemes. But, really the most advanced stuff runs on linux based machines, I would proffer.

  I use Photoshop daily, and play some Steam games once in a while. My laptop is an ultrabook with a SSD. I can't see any impact on performance. If there is an impact, I'd need to setup benchmarks to identify it.
