Gven The word "full-drive" is, in the examples, used more often as an adjective than an adverb: "full-drive speed," "full-drive system," "full-drive encryption feature," "full-drive data backup." Perhaps the part of speech for "full-drive" should be amended to add this common, perhaps more common, usage.
