Now, the default is to use software encryption for newly encrypted drives. For existing drives, the type of encryption will not change. And in any event, I would tend to argue that the matter of reselling is secondary: The problem is that the affected disks are effectively unencrypted, and that's a problem regardless. If your disks are properly encrypted, then reselling them should be safe.
