comp password

[alan-r]

if my laptop should get stolen and has of course a password on it to start up
if the hard drive is removed can't that not be read on another comp if plugged or would my password stop that,

No, someone could still remove the hard drive and read the contents. To stop this happening you would need to password protect the hard drive itself.

Or encrypt the data on the hard drive.
