Most FDE schemes seem to use AES-XTS with 128-bit effective key size (256 bit key, split, =AES-XTS-128). So we can treat this as AES-128.

Grover's algorithm, as I understand things, means that AES-128 is not post-quantum secure at all. Sufficiently powerful adversaries could begin collecting AES-128 encrypted drives now, and feasibly decrypt them when quantum computing is practical (which, for all we know, it already is.)

Doesn't this mean FDE solutions need to migrate to 256-bit effective key strength ASAP? For XTS that means a 512-bit key for AES-XTS-256.

I think practical isn't really a description of the current state of quantum computing.

However, it it were, beating a fully entangled quantum computer is going to require more than just an increased key size. You'd want to switch to lattice base crypto. Which, while not completely tested, show promise against both traditional and quantum attacks.

Stop using AES and switch to SERPENT-XTS-512
as for asymmetric algos use trust algos from djb

lookup netsec general on the wiki, already exists and is what you wanted

Why can't these enormous bitcoin mining farms do this?

because math is a bitch but quantum computing works differently and obeys different laws

Actually, I was wearing my dads pants. Not cool.
