Using Passwords
There are three types of passwords you can use to protect your
computer and the removable hard disk drive:
The power-on password protects your computer from being used
by unauthorized persons.
The hard disk password protects the data on your removable
hard disk drive from being accessed by unauthorized persons.
The supervisor password protects the system information in
Easy-Setup from being modified and your removable hard disk
drive from being used by unauthorized persons.
