Don't think so, whats the number on that Inito?
Have you checked data straight through the sata?

I think they are encrypted only if you use the software they provide...

Some bridge firmware is configured with 4KB LBAs so you would need to multiply the sector numbers by 8 when you connect directly via SATA and expose the drive's 512e LBAs.

Also, I believe that the reason you are seeing zeros in sector 63 (via SATA) is that the drive would have been zero filled before being installed inside the enclosure at manufacturing time.

Or it could be that Boot Sector is at 2048 and not 63

Also

initio is 1607E

This bridge makes hardware encryption, regardless of software installed.

Little USB thing very much like buster80's

WD 320Gb HDD in with an Initio 1607E bridge board.
