Anyone know how to password protect a whole hard drive?

Like when you go into my computer, and like click e: drive lets say, it prompts for a password before doing anything?
 
PGPdisk included in PGP Desktop Security. Use it to create an encrypted file to put all yer stuff in and assign a drive letter to it. Click on the file and you are prompted for a password after which a new drive letter appears. Under W2K there is no size limit but under W9x it is 2GB. There are also alternatives like Scramdisk.

Check out alt.security.pgp and this archive.

 
What I don't want is people being able to see what files are on that hard drive. So with PGP lets say could you block the files so that you can't see them. Like see the file names
 
There're some shareware programs that make the files invisible, and passward proteched. However I'm not sure you could make a drive invisible.
