Hard disk drive passwords
Your computer comes with a program preinstalled that lets
you set two types of hard disk drive passwords, user and
master. These passwords protect your primary and secondary
hard disks as follows:
❖ Setting a hard disk drive user 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.
❖ Setting a hard disk drive master password lets you bypass
the hard disk drive user password and access your hard
disk, in case you forget the hard disk drive user password.
If you choose to set a hard disk drive master password,
you should set it before you set a hard disk drive user
password.
HINT: The hard disk drive shipped with your computer may not
support the master password feature. When you attempt to set
master password protection, your computer may alert you that this
feature is not supported by your drive. If this happens and you
want to establish a master password for your hard disk, contact
your network administrator for instructions.
