i3 and f1 also have encrypted disks. I have found some references on blogs for this, but the only place I've seen it mentioned by AWS directly is in this presentation from re:Invent 2017: https://youtu.be/o9_4uGvbvnk?t=30m20s (at 30:25 the presenter mentions that the nitro cards "protect the underlying flash device and customer data through encryption").

Hi, it's presenter in the video here.

The documentation at https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSEC2/latest/UserGuide/ssd-inst... will be updated soon with the same information.

Excellent, thank you. It would be very good to have that information in the official documentation. I've wanted to refer to something like that for compliance reasons, for example.
