If a user hard disk password has been set, but no master hard disk password has been, the user must enter
the user hard disk password in order to gain access to files and programs on the mSATA solid-state drive.
The master password can be set and used only by a system administrator. Like a master key, it enables the
administrator to get access to any hard disk drive in a system. The administrator sets the master password;
no one else knows it. Then the administrator sets a user password for each computer in the network, and
tells each user the password for his or her computer. The user can then change the user password as
desired, but the administrator still can get access by using the master password.
Note:
When a master hard disk password is set, only the administrator can remove the user hard disk
password.

install the hard disk drive in a computer that cannot recognize a hard disk password that
contains more than seven characters, you cannot get access to the drive.
