Is it possible to write this method in a prettier way?

{
 var hex = new StringBuilder(byteArray.Length * 2);
 foreach (var b in byteArray)
 hex.AppendFormat("{0:x2}", b);

There are popular topics on StackOverflow that cover this exact question:

• How do you convert Byte Array to Hexadecimal String, and vice versa?

• byte[] to hex string

• Gert Arnold: It seems that just as on StackOverflow, consensus here is that link-only answers aren't preferable.
• almaz: This answer refers to internal stackoverflow links, not external. Basically it says "this question has already been answered". I don’t see any reason to copy/paste the code from similar answers.
