even then, based on what I know. Wether its trezor or ledger, physical access on the drive is not enough in and of itself.

Yes it is.

However the chances of someone breaking in, finding it, knowing what it is and knowing how to get at it are on the astronomical side. And it's also neutralised by having a 25th password. But who knows whether new angles will be found?

For me online security is obviously the big one and so far they're fine.



I'll read that later, but even if I personally had your drive. Unless I had whatever pass phrase is set up. I couldnt do anything with it. Unless I missed something, I would need your drive and the wallet / system its tied to, to steal your funds. But just the drive itself, last I knew, wasnt even close to enough.
