Hard Disk Drive Passwords
To provide additional security for your data, you can assign passwords to your hard disk drive(s). This feature is
managed in the system BIOS Setup Utility. See

below for information about accessing the utility.
BIOS Setup Utility
The BIOS Setup Utility sets up the operating environment for your notebook. Your BIOS is set at the factory for normal
operating conditions, therefore there is no need to set or change the BIOS’ environment to operate your notebook.
The BIOS Setup Utility also allows you to configure such features as the System Data Security feature parameters, such
as passwords.
Entering the BIOS Setup Utility
To enter the BIOS Setup Utility do the following:
1
Turn on or restart your LIFEBOOK notebook.
2
To enter the BIOS Setup Utility, press the [F2] key once the Fujitsu logo appears on the screen. This will open the
main menu of the BIOS Setup Utility with the current settings displayed.
Press the right or left arrow keys key to scroll through the other setup menus to review or alter the current settings.
