Enabling DriveLock
To enable and set the DriveLock user password:
1. Turn on or restart the computer.
2. As soon as you turn on the computer, repeatedly press the
Setup (f10) Utility.
If you do not press
press f10
3. Select Security > DriveLock Security.
4. For each DriveLock-capable drive, select a drive by pressing
5. Under Enable/Disable DriveLock options, select Enable, and then press
for a specific drive.
NOTE:
CAUTION:
6. Enter a new user password (1 to 32 characters long), and then press
7. Enter the password again in the Enter New Password Again field. If you forget this password,
the drive is rendered permanently disabled.
8. Select File > Save Changes and Exit, and then press
press enter, the computer performs a cold start before invoking the DriveLock function.
When the computer starts, you are prompted to enter the DriveLock password for each
DriveLock-capable drive for which you have set a password. You have two attempts to enter the
password correctly. If the password is not entered correctly, the computer attempts to start
anyway. However, the boot process most likely fails because data from a locked drive cannot be
accessed.
In a single drive computer, if the drive has DriveLock enabled, the computer might not be able to
boot to the operating system, and might try to boot from the network or from another storage
device (depending on the boot ordering options). Regardless of the outcome of the start
attempts, the drive-locked drive remains inaccessible without the DriveLock password.
In a two-drive computer that has a boot drive and a data drive, you can apply the DriveLock
feature to the data drive only. In this case, the computer can always start, but the data drive is
accessible only when the DriveLock password is entered.
When you start or restart the computer, you must enter DriveLock passwords. For example, if
you boot to DOS and press ctrl+alt+del, you must enter the DriveLock password before the
computer completes the next start cycle. This restart-start behavior is consistent with the
DriveLock feature.
f10 at the appropriate time, you must restart the computer, then repeatedly
again to access the utility.
To set the DriveLock master password, select Master.
If you forget the DriveLock password, the drive is unusable.
