Our Review:

FREE CompuSec is specifically designed to protect desktops and notebooks, using pre-boot authentication and full hard disk encryption. Access control requires you to enter your userID and password before the system will boot up. Free CompuSec is free for both personal and business use.

FREE CompuSec includes several other encryption utilities: Voice encryption, encryption of individual files, removable media—CDs, DVDs, USB thumb drives, and "Container" encryption (similar to TrueCrypt volumes).

The Pre-boot Authentication module is automatically installed on the drive to which the OS boots, but you don't actually have to apply Whole Disk Encryption to any drive if you don't want to.
