Using a hard disk drive password

Your computer comes with a program preinstalled that lets you set
a hard disk drive password. This password prevents an
unauthorized user from accessing your hard disk, even if it is
removed and installed on another computer. This password does
not encrypt data on the hard disk.
CAUTION: Make sure you choose a hard disk drive
password you can easily remember. If you set a hard disk
drive password and later forget the password or lose your
password diskette, YOU WILL NEVER BE ABLE TO ACCESS
YOUR HARD DISK AGAIN.
Toshiba will not be held responsible for any loss of data, any
loss of use or access to your hard disk drive, or for any other
losses to you or any other person or organization that results
from the loss of access to your hard disk drive.
