word" link. The "Modify System Password" screen appears.
The manufacture default password is set to 0000.

RAID controller's password protection feature. Once the pass-
word has been set, the user can only monitor and configure the

unauthorized entry. The controller will check the password only
when entering the main menu from the initial screen. The 6Gb/s
SAS RAID controller will automatically go back to the initial screen
when it does not receive any command in 5 minutes. Do not use
spaces when you enter the password, If spaces are used, it will
lock out the user.
To disable the password, leave the fields blank. Once the user
confirms the operation and clicks the "Submit" button, the exist-
ing password will be cleared. Then, no password checking will
occur when entering the main menu from the starting screen.
