To manually apply DriveLock protection to an internal hard drive, a master password must be set, and
DriveLock must be enabled in Computer Setup. Note the following considerations about using DriveLock
protection:
●
After DriveLock protection is applied to a hard drive, the hard drive can be accessed only by entering
either the DriveLock user password or the master password.
●
The owner of the DriveLock user password should be the day-to-day user of the protected hard drive.
The owner of the DriveLock master password may be either a system administrator or the day-to-day
user.
●
The DriveLock user password and the DriveLock master password can be identical.
