Admin and User Passwords
By enabling Admin and User Passwords, you can leverage multi-password functionality, in which the Admin Role can
manage both accounts. Selecting 'Enable Admin and User passwords' allows for an alternative method of drive
access in case one of the passwords is forgotten.
With Admin and User passwords enabled, you can also access:
• User Password reset
To learn more about the User Password reset feature, navigate to page 28 within this user guide.
•
To Enable Admin and User passwords click
on the box next to 'Enable Admin and User
Passwords' and select Next once a valid
password has been chosen. (Figure 4.12)
•
If this feature is enabled, then the chosen
Password at this screen will be the Admin
Password. Click Next to proceed to the User
Password screen where a password is
chosen for the User.
Note: Enabling Admin and User passwords is optional.
If the drive is set up with this feature NOT enabled (box unchecked), then the drive will be configured as a Single
User, Single Password drive without any Admin features. This configuration will be referred to User-Only mode
throughout this manual.
To proceed with a Single User, Single password setup, keep Enable Admin and User Passwords unchecked, and click
Next after creating a valid password.
