Using DriveLock Security Options

DriveLock protection prevents unauthorized access to the contents of a hard drive. DriveLock can be applied
only to the internal hard drive(s) of the computer. After DriveLock protection is applied to a drive, the
appropriate password must be entered to access the drive. The drive must be inserted into the computer or an
advanced port replicator in order for it to be unlocked.

Selecting Automatic DriveLock (select products only)

A BIOS administrator password must be set before you can enable Automatic DriveLock. When Automatic
DriveLock is enabled, a random DriveLock user password and a DriveLock master password derived from the
BIOS administrator password are created. When the computer is turned on, the random user password
automatically unlocks the drive. If the drive is moved to another computer, you must enter the BIOS
administrator password for the original computer at the DriveLock password prompt to unlock the drive.
