Configuring the System 3-27
If you set the master and user password on a
hard drive, you can never remove the passwords. You can change the
passwords. If you forget the master password and install the drive in
another system, you cannot access the data on the hard drive.
Once you set these passwords, NEC Computers Inc. has no
capability of removing them.
If you install the hard drive in another PowerMate system with hard disk
drive security enabled, you must enter the password to allow access to the
hard drive.
If this PowerMate system does not support hard disk drive
security, you cannot access the data on the hard drive.
With hard disk drive security enabled on the original NEC PowerMate
2000 system, the system boots normally.
If you install the hard drive in another NEC PowerMate system with
security enabled, you must enter the master password to access the hard
drive. If the hard drive is installed in another NEC PowerMate 2000
system with security disabled, the system prompts you to enter the master
password and then a new user password.
Moving the Hard Drive
When a password protected hard drive is moved from its original system
and installed in another system, error messages appear indicating that the
drive is locked. Next, the Security Setup screen appears requiring the user
to enter the master password to unlock the drive. Enter the master
password, when prompted.
To take advantage of HDD password protection in another system, the
system must be equipped with the same HDD password protection
feature. To determine if the system has HDD password protection, check
the Security Menu in the BIOS Setup to see if there are provisions for
establishing HDD passwords.
