Not really. Most modern CPUs have AES support, so performance hit using this cipher on HDDs isn't so bad. And SSDs aren't recommended for encrypted data anyway, since they keep ciphertext blocks which were rewritten and also need marking empty blocks for better performance, which both weakens the encryption.
