You can create an HPA or DCO on the attached drive only if you are in Read-

will display “SUPPORTED IN R/W MODE ONLY.” To create an HPA/DCO, cycle power on the unit and
switch to Read-Write mode.

3.5.1 Set DCO Size
This option is only available if no HPA exists on the drive. It allows you to set a new size for DCO (Device
Configuration Overlay). Each drive can only have one such area. Use the navigation buttons to select its
size. The disk capacity available to a computer will be reduced by this amount. A value of zero means
no DCO. Values exceeding available capacity are not accepted.

to the “Create HPA/DCO” screen. Press ENTER.


• Press UP or DOWN to toggle between “Set HPA size” and “Set DCO
